Is it just me or does the surfboard look too new and shiney. I think it needs something like an old paisley Hobey or G&S with some patched dings...
I have a couple of those caps lying around. I think I'll have to see what they'll bring. Like Bobby Ford said I'll get a $10 final bid for my trouble.

How about "Win Tin"?
I'm about 99% sure the 250 uses a 153 tooth flywheel. It also uses a long and a short starter bolt. What kind of carb(s) are you going to use?...
In some instances a driverless car would be an improvement! We all see brainless drivers on the road every day. Its doubtful a self piloted car...

I swapped out the rear in my Hup over the holidays. The old arrangement was a Dana 35 from a Cherokee with Jeep springs, shocks and anti-sway bar....
I used an 88' Cherokee roof to fill in my Hup. The Hup 417 body is identical to a 33-34 Ford sedan. 4 ribs on top sort of gives it a serious,...
Could use some direction.
How many door ajar lights are enough? I wonder if that Scorpion style by Eddie Leon is still available?
My wipers are over the windshield. I eliminated the overhead motor by using a cable driven Lucas setup from a Jag/MG/Austin. The wiper towers can...

If you want a good set get them from Stovebolt. Can't beat cast iron and they'll save a bunch of room over a six pipe setup.
Correction then: Using the above example of 6 volts with 1 ohm resistance then yes 6 amps of current are required to produce 36 watts of power. To...
12volts is fine. They'll only pull half the current they would at 6. So you can use a smaller wire too.
I wouldn't use the old German fuse boxes. They use those ceramic/plastic fuses with the tin or lead element on the outside. The exposed metal...
I've got a combo AM/FM/MP3/CD/DVD/TV unit in my overhead console between the visors. The unit also has a USB input as well as flash memory slot. I...
