I want to update this post. I found out that my Skyliner does have a GEN light. I believe it has a Motorcraft 3G alternator. Doing some research I now believe that these alternators used in original...

I have been reading the April issue of the Skyliner online. My paper version hasn't arrived yet. I haven't been able to find a way to vote yet. I didn't see the page that has the ballot that can be...

I want to thank you, our administrator for putting all the past magazine issues online, making them available to us. This must have been an enormous amount of work and I am slowly going through...

On my 57, if I remove the cover I think it was, I have access to the indicator pointer. Mine is just a piece of sheet metal secured by a screw and there is a thin tapered portion that serves as the...

I discovered that my front roof locks were not reaching the ratchet depth and thus the motor stalled while still receiving power. I believe this is very bad for the motor. So I adjusted the receiver...

Thankyou. I am quite happy to be driving it. I was able to buy the parts I needed from one of our members. Being a part of the club is a real bonus and I enjoy it.

The original master for the power brake setup had a larger bore. I believe the non power brake master bore was 1".

I purchased my 57 Skyliner from Alberta, Canada in March. I have just recently put it on the road and I am really enjoying my time with it.
