I bought a 75 Imperial from
another list member, High Mileage [otisdavidson@xxxxxxxxx]. I am now
starting to rebuild the car to use as a first class tow vehicle/nice daily
driver.
I now have a custom upholstery
shop in Marietta,
GA that will put on an exact
replica of the original top for $450. I have used this shop before, and
while they are not cheap, they are the best auto trim shop in the Atlanta area. I
just took the old top off. What is good for getting the adhesive off
after you remove the vinyl?
Also, I am going to put an RV cam
in the car, if the profile is significantly different from the one that is in
it. Does anyone know what the profile and specs of the stock cam
are? Car will have a Edelbrock 750 cfm / Performer 440 manifold with HP
exhaust manifolds and 2 1/4” duals and the high performance electronic
ignition. Car now has a 750 Holley that I cannot tune due to “Holley
ignorance” that is way rich. Car will not have cats as
Georgia does not inspect cars over
25 years old. Rear end will be a 3.21 sure grip. Heaviest trailer
and car combination will be less than 3 tons. I am leaving the cylinder
heads stock with a 3 angle valve job.
Any advice will be
appreciated.
