I keep running this back and forth in my head....removing the tailpan and moving the rear bumper in approx 3 inches to take up the gap. My...
I would talk to someone at Egge. Maybe they know?
This is more practical, but AM/FM modulators put out a very compressed signal, and with AM, it would be horrifically compressed (as AM is...
As others have said, VR1 is one of the last remaining oils on the market to have adequate supply of zinc for flat-tapped engines. All the Diesel...

Working in auto parts for most of my life now, there is just as much from one side of the counter as the other. (From the BACK side of the...
Are there just clips holding this on? Any special secret handshake to removal? I just don't want to start prying like crazy and ruin the thing.
That looks like what ratfink is saying, that you loosen the studs on the back and then slide the piece forward on the side. Those clips look like...
Well I don't know if I have the oddball car, but I just went outside again to check it out. My front-most hole (the one near the mirror) I got to...
Nope. Nothing there. I swear I'm not crazy. At least, I don't think I am.
Ok, just went out and checked...again. Removed the inner window frame and still...can't find any studs / nuts. Looked around the edges of the door...
Is he saying that because he can't or doesn't think he can polish it well prior to plating?
Why not retube and recap the original, then wire an 1/8 input jack into the line stage of the radio? You get to keep the cool nostalgic look, and...
Just removing to re-paint. There's rust underneath them that's staining the paint under them. Car is flat black and it doesn't look good with rust...
Normally it won't do any damage. Depending on whether the valves interfere with the piston travel, how fast the engine was turning when it...

For simplicity sake, the Delco 10si alternator is so dang cheap (29.99 at most parts places) that in since it takes the place of both the gen and...
The only other thing I'm wondering is that the heat riser kinda holds the whole unit together when you hang it on the studs, since there isn't any...
I'm looking to split my exhaust manifold on my Pontiac straight 8 and was wondering about the heat riser. My thoughts were to lop off the heat...
Awesome. Did you do the rear seat windows too, or do you have a 4dr? I'm just really worried about the outside ones leaking water down into the...
Hey everyone...tried to search on this but couldn't find much. I've got a 50' Pontiac 2dr Chieftain and the wiper seals on the outside of all the...
That's probably a piece of it...but even the rear seats they are listing the same price..and those don't need to be covered in the back.
Holy crap...a small Fender amp, like a Champ, or something bigger. I've grabbed some good garage sale and flea market finds, but that is a killer one.
When I completely sandblasted the body of my 50' Buick, it sat in a midwest garage 2 years and never got a speck of surface rust on it. Unless you...
Thanks guys.... Good grief...Chevy truck kits.....160.00 Chevy car kits 450.00 + That's crazy.
