I found these, what are they?

6 out of 7 engineers preffered the the little white ones. but mamma likes the new ones

 

Those are the Houston Astros headlights appearing in the St. Louis Cardinals rear view mirror.

 

I went for the blue ones.

 

Honestly I haven't seen a NOS white X in a while. damn near all of them have been sent off to be red powdercoated before sold. I got mine from a friend that works at the factory. Drilled it and now cant decide if I want to have it chrome platred or leave it in the white and just clear coat it. Thought's

 

Do what I did. Chrome it, then clear coat it, carefully sand the clear coat off the holes and weld them up, paint the welds with flat black, and you will have something very similar to what you have now.

 

I don't know what they are, but they are the nicest one's I've ever seen.

 

all right, one more post, and this one's a warning. I'm really not sure what they are, but I had a pair of pants made of the same material once, and I was arrested for indecent exposure not ten minutes after I left the house! So, if you decide to make pants outa them, make sure you wear something under them!

 

i was getting horny until i realized there wer 2 x's missing

 

I can't believe this thread is still alive.

 

The classics never die..............

 

Dont let water dry on them thangs, ya cant get the spots off. Then ya gona have to wax'm and maybe buff'm. Then ya got to be real carfull not to go through the white paint cuz you will see a bad grey primer spot. I would put them away and never show them to anyone. Just so they dont get all messed up.

 

wow! devil those look nice ! i wish mine looked that good, anyone know how to keepem that clean ?

 

ya know...finding one of these would be great......i just enjoy the searchin....

I just posted here to become a grenade inspector, I have been a newbie for way too long! (put in a good word for me when election time comes to become an inspector. Or we can just start now VOTE FOR MACKSTER for GRENADE INSPECTOR. BTW I will buy them left or right standard or metric, just to fit in with rest of the HAMBERS! J/K LOL.....! MKSTR!

 

oh sorry... pics are down but in a nutshell im told by my buddy at the antiques roadshow that thes atr super rare ultra low temp muffler bearings that hupmobile used on very few production cars ...they started using the modern high temp muffler bearings when they realized that exhaust temperatures far exceded the heat range for the low temp set up...other manufacturers learned from their mistakes and thats why these are so rare...likely the only pair left and also very likely that they are from a concept car that was taken apart after the 1925 podunk arkansas auto show,
