To add a few cents worth on the topic - Seems more common for the internal gears to cause problems than the actual motor itself to fail. Considering it's only used for about 3 or 4 seconds at a time i ...

Hey, at least the list-maker included it. I'm impressed.

Cool article, though with plenty of errors by the auth ...

Having seen yours I'll probably spring for a report as well. Imagine mine would read identically other than VIN, selling dealer, and build date. Agreed on the potential increase in value when it comes ...

Just remember, unlike engine oil, an automatic trans must have the fluid level checked with the engine RUNNING! Preferably with the vehicle sitting on a completely level surface, warmed to normal ope ...

Sandy, I could certainly be wrong but I believe the tape stripe in the photo you provided of the silver car was added by someone. Right off, it appears to be an '87 - '88 car based on the wheel style ...

Couldn't help but note the irony of photographing the car in a graveyard... as you've now completed a resurrection! Congrats - well done... glad to see it back in action and looking great.

P.S. I a ...

Recently had a great opportunity to drive a stone-stock, triple-black, flawless collector quality (Sandy would love it) 17,000 mile '88 LX 5.0 ragtop (5-speed of course!) back-to-back with my McLaren. ...

Speaking on behalf of anyone here who might also own a Red McLaren still wearing the ASC factory sprayed Sikkens paint, from personal experience I can state unequivocally that Ford's OEM 'Vermillion' ...

Considering how few of these cars were built during the entire production run 20+ years ago, and likely how few are left now due to general attrition, abuse, neglect, accidents, etc.... it still stuns ...

Im wondering if the relay is going bad, going down but not up indicates the motor wiring is in good shape. Also, anyone tried pushing down on the top near the bow screw while the switch is pushed up ...

Felt absolutely compelled to chime in on this one since ironically I just went through this EXACT scenario last week. Never had one lick of trouble with my top screw/motor... until it decided it just ...

Nice car. For anyone who may care or be potentially considering the purchase of this particular McLaren, the current owner is not lying about it being an original California car. In the photo of the e ...

Nice to know those original mats ended up in good hands. Even though they weren't for my model year, for kicks I had them and all the rest of the goodies from that particular seller watchlisted the wh ...
