ACME has the same info I was told recently by another vender. i.e. that YO is the "exclusive" vender. Strange since that other vender was apparently selling the harness on the internet. If anyone needs the under dash harness, take out a bank loan. The Creature From Jekyll Island is alive and...

Hopping everyone had a good day yesterday, After breakfast with the family yesterday (grandkids) I came home and did this. Been waiting for what seems like a year for them to get in stock from Taiwan. So the process is backwards. Sometimes it seem most of the things I do are. But progress. What...

Sellers pretty much have this figured out. At least for domestic purchases. Without calling names. Ya might get a discount on the price from one place over another but they make it up on shipping. Just ordered and found that to be the case. It was a wash between the two. Always pays to shop...

This just in. I've been waiting for AMD to get patch pans in. Just a heads up if you don't need a whole floor...

IF you have some rust you can't deal with right now or think it is not worth dealing with, this stuff works. I've used it for years with good results. Very cost effective and easy to use. (And once dry, it's so hard to get off things even lacquer thinner doesn't seem to have much effect.) I have...

Gasket between the main housing and body??? Mine had just a little sealant maybe. That is where I used white poly. It really held it in place to get the body joint nice while it set. I bought the correct gasket from Detroit Muscle for the other things. I'm also thinking I'll go with the clear...

I'm never doing another one if I can help it. But can see where "you learn" on the first one. It's not great but it's not bad either. I've decided to eliminate the goofy snaps and go with the 70 style.

I've coated the chrome and lens housings with LPS3 Yes. Silicone (RTV) seems like a good choice. It's usually not very "sticky" if you try and get it off. But I'm thinking this. First thing I've found in a search. Clear between the lens and chrome?? I used polyurethane between the housings and...

I'm only getting it if it comes with a matching T shirt.

June 1969. Snaps and some type of string retaining system. (I'm looking for info on the snaps and where to get some new ones. So I wound up here.) I've almost go the new headliner in.

Well, I knew when I started this that water would be a problem but figured I would seal it some way other than "sealant". In other words, I can make and gasket the chrome to housing. But can't see anyway to keep water from between the lens and chrome since I don't want to "glue" the lens to the...

Address the mechanical issues first. Prioritize things that will let you drive the car for a feeling of accomplishment. (Sounds like they really don't want you to drive the car. Sundays only?) I revisited the pages and the only thing that gives me concerns structurally from a mechanical...

Home Depot had some vinyl/rubber flooring "runner" material by the foot that would have cost about 12 dollars. Would have worked fine but it had that nasty smell like rubber products from China. (That smell in Harbor Fright). I've bought Chinese rubber air hoses that dry cracked in a few years...

Bought a stainless tank, stainless pick up and stainless straps all from the same place a few years ago. Decided to upgrade from the standard "roof felt" pad and got the "rubber" one. Started to put everything in this week and found the "rubber" pad is waste of money. It's skimpy and the "die...

There doesn't seem to be a magic tool. I've ground this one to try an improve it. No such luck. Over the years I've even tried to make a better "tool" from putty knives. Thinner is gooder. They work for a while and then break. I found the back glass is not made to be removed before on a first...

Here's some shots of the original fenders. Either two different people sprayed the undercoating on each side or the guy got lazy. I'm not reusing them and got AMD replacements. Too rusty to fool with. Those clip nuts are not designed to be removed. :) (I've noticed the same thing applies to...

True . But speaking for myself, I'm running out of time. There comes a point when it's carpe diem. Money not running out so much. But with all things considered these daze , fund$ still have to be spent wisely.

Here's another oddity. Same part number for two left bezels. Different design.

I know. Maybe a stupid question. Not red rear. But amber there too. All indications are this one slipped through St. Louis with a bunch of thrown together odd hardware, etc. The variance from side to side are sometimes subtle. Body panel differences you eyeball can pick up. Back in 69 it might...

He's nine. Done in a few minutes I was told. My wife hasn't done art work in years but has a stash of frames. While I was digging around in the plastic totes for a frame, I found some of her old work already framed and decided it fit the motif. My niece is a professional artist. Must run in the...
