  1. Looking for old swapped out supercharger parts, not necessarily unusable.   Trying my hand at  a rebuild, but not wanting to risk new bits just yet.  Moreso for education, etc

     Right now an Impeller and output shaft are needed.   Anything out there?   Will pay for decent parts.

    thx

    If you're at speed and the thing isn't charging ( which is what you indicate), then I'd have a chat with the rebuilder..

    Things can be hooked up correctly, but if they aren't working,   meh?

     

    edit#3

    Have you checked to see if the battery cables and clamps are in good shape?

    My car ,1970  RQA-0381 had the build written on June 26, 1969 - Engine# V0312880 (350/300) - Body #RQ-4921  

     


    Does anyone who owns an early Avanti II still have the body tag on the car?

    The BEST thing you can do to ANY stude or Avanti II to upgrade the steering is to swap out the center pin housing with bushings for a Housing that uses needle bearings.  You wouldn't believe you even needed Power Steering.

    and this can even be made better by incorporating one of Ray Fichthorns adaption to use a 3rd bearing...

    How did that happen? Most of the damage forward of that dark spot is just empty wheel well space.  From this view, it would only take 3-4 hours to make a decent repair.  Painting it would be another thing.
