Well I just picked up my '89 SC from San Diego on Tuesday. Big thumbs down to BOB BAKER FORD of San Diego (installed clutch, had it a extra day because the mecahnic put the clutch on backwards ... even though it says right on it ... FLYWHEEL THIS SIDE).
Made it all the way to my house in Norfolk in 55 hours ... no tickets, wrecks, car troubles, traffic, weather problems ... nothing.
Anyways ... just saying whats up. Also if there is anyone here in Hampton Roads that has a few spare parts ... driver electric window motor, plastic piece for sunroof switch, and if anyone would care to lend a hand in figureing out a few minor problems sometime beer would be provided haha.
- Dash lights dont work
- Temp, oil pressure guage ... not working
- Auto supension works (but not when I manually hit the switch)
- Fog lights not working
- Lights for heater/ac controls
Ive looked for blown fuses, cant seem to find any.

Welcome home!
I don't have any spare parts, but you need to make U-Wrench-It your friend! That place is awesome, clean, organized, cheap. There are always MN12's there (but, I've only seen 1 supercoupe). Have you heard of it? It is on Sykes Ave, off of Va. Beach Blvd., which is near Oceana Naval Air Station
If the lights are blown on your AC controls you have to by them from Ford. There a rip off but it's the only place you can get them as far a I know (I replaced mine last summer). Either buy a Stereo (and A/C) removal tool from Pep Boys for a couple bucks or unwind a metal coathanger and break it into 4 straight peices. Push them in the 4 holes around the A/C contols, pull the unit out until you see the round, grey tops of the lights. They twist to come out. And that's about that.
Your Electronic Suspension switch is probably broken then. Check the fog light switch while your there too.
All this stuff you can most likely find at U-Wrench-It for nothing.
Once it starts getting warmer, were hopefully gonna start getting together more often. Jenro's should be starting up there weekend carshows in about a month...I hope.
Later

Warmer? I'm beginning to wonder if it's EVER going to start getting warmer! This weather sucks!

Any progress? Hey Anthony, I got an invite for you in the mail to the Gloucester car show this May. Got one for me too. I guess Dave Machen had registered both of us last year, & they have us on their list.
