How does the window trim piece that goes on the top of the door (has Victoria embossed into it) fasten to the door? Does it use the same style...
Great idea. I hoped that's what you meant. I believe that re-chroming my parts would be several hundred dollars. My neighbor 2 doors down has a...
What is “chrome vinyl”? Interesting solution. Thanks
I'd Like to ask another question; this time about about steering play. My car drives just-sorta-ok in that there seems to be loose play in the...
Thanks Paul. Since I'm just getting started with this car I want to look for a while for good used versus having mine re-plated. I think 'new...
Thanks guys. I do have a question: what do I call this large (I’m assuming cast pot metal) piece at the front of the wing windows? I’d like to...

P.S. Pretty much all of Seattle is now or soon becoming a shit-hole. Just ask my grandson who is a deputy sheriff in King County where Seattle is...

Six Ball As soon as I saw your post a bit ago, I knew that was it. Took me less than 5 minutes to get it. It was late yesterday and I'd forgotten...

G85 No. 5 window for sure. Yellow, hemi powered, Ballard 60's era. Stored since in lumber sheds at Home Builders Center on Nickerson just east of...
I'm looking for some info about 153/181 distributors. I have a 181 in a roadster and finally getting it ready to fire. But it doesn't seem like...
Could it be that it wasn't actually a roadster? but a chopped 5 window? I have a friend Bob (current age around 75) who had a yellow 32 5 window...
Thank you. Great reference material here.
I really enjoy this thread. These pics are great. Can anyone direct me to a more 'technical' info/thread about how-to do a "V8 in a sports car"?...

Thanks Jim. I'll look them up.
