55Brodie, did you ever notice that Broderick Crawford did most of his Highway Patrol driving on dirt roads? That is because he lost his license...
No, saw a similiar setup on eBay, the carbs looked back to front with linkage on side.
Yes, I have run into the "patina" problem in the past, which is why I posted. So, you agree, blast?
[ATTACH] Click the pic to enlarge. I just picked up this Weiand tunnel ram for a 302 with a pair of center squirters (see my post below). It is...
[ATTACH] Click the thumbnail picture. I just bought this 302 tunnel ram set up, reputedly sitting but NOS. It does not appear that carb studs...
Didn't know that, I guess I just assumed acetone was a petroleum distillate.
Good to know about the vinegar, I've had it do the same to my stomach lining. Any harm in a bead blast to clear off years of grunge?
Thanks. Didn't know about the vinegar. Glad to hear about the sticker too.
[ATTACH] I just picked up a pair of these tonight. They are Silverstone wheels, and were made in magnesium in the 60's. The sticker which reads...
Yes, it is hobby equipment so use isn't constant. I don't always use it heated because I don't want to wait for it to warm up. I am pretty sure it...
It has been over a year since my post in this topic. Since then, I pulled the pump from my machine and compared it to pictures of Little Giant...
I posted a pic of one here a few months back. It was a '47(?) coupe with a big block Ford in it, subframed with p/s and discs, and with an auto...
In a not so old car I bought a few years ago, I found a Bankruptcy Petition and CD's on "How to become a financial advisor".
My nearest dawg house is 35 miles away in Worcester, MA. I have taken stuff there to be shipped. I felt like they expected me to apologize for...
Expecting knowledge at the window is hopeless.
I have a friend with an industrial Hemi. The town had it hooked to an emergency generator. He has had it on a stand "studyng it" for about 10...
I have had good luck woth that, you could search the entire U.S. Yesterday I called it up and got a message that Craigs List had changed and...
One of the reasons I recommend the "cheap seats" is that you hear a lot less of "You know what these are going for on eBay?" Most of the...
If the wheels are cut for shanked lug nuts, they won't center properly without the right nuts. If the holes are only big enough for the lugs, then...
I got a lot of interesting stuff, mostly up in the cheap seats. There was a mahogany Aristo Kraft speed boat that I was barely able to resist. I...
hotrod48ford above is correct. If they are Cragars, they should use a necked lug nut (closed) along with a washer. I have been searching the net...
I'll be there, we've had the same 5 spots for years, I forget the number (this year I hid my own Easter eggs, and find I am making "new" friends...

OK, I've got a set of real old Western Superlite wheels (picture is just similar that I grabbed off the web, same name Superlite and same style,...
Interesting, I'll have to "Sign up" to get prices. They had something else I need. That is the "offsets" to change the bolt pattern on Keystone...
Thank you. Fortunately, my calipers can read out in mm. Making the conversion from mm to inches, they are much closer to what I need. 20 Pounds is...
Thanks, I appreciate the link. They seem a little big, the wheels I have are for a 60's Mini Cooper. They are probably an English size....
I'll be there. My best score was a couple of years ago, a '71 Cuda grille, perfect, $25.00. I took it home, washed it and put on the lawn to dry....
Nobody?
[IMG] I have a set of 60's alloy wheels,they have lost most of their steel lug inserts. Can anyone point me to a supplier? I found one on the...
