Thank you too. Your direct response make me smile as though I’m the apprentice here and that’s correct! :canada::canada::thankyou::usflag:

That sounds reasonable and appreciate your quick response. I get worrisome when there is such a drastic difference. :thumbsup:

Two RockAuto replacement for 8 3/4”#2460668 originals from the rear of a ‘65 Chrysler. There is a huge difference between internal spring strength. As seen in the picture the upper cylinder can be pressed in easily and the bottom spring pressure is almost pushing the pistons out of the rubber...

This discussion makes me think back to a product that was in say 55 gallon drums where a part was then dipped into several times and wow it was fantastic chrome looking results. I remember even Jay Leno was impressed. (Edit) It was a waterbased liquid. I believe it was a new way to even coat...

I had radio thumbwheel dials re-done by this company and they turned out fantastic. It makes me wonder what the price difference would be for repops and their service on original arm rest bezels.

How about a Wisc. Bonded Title? I’ve done that twice here in Ar. and it wasn’t expensive or difficult. In Ar. the title cleared in 3 years, I see Wisc. is 5 years.

Watched on YouTube for the first time and it was entertaining in many ways.

Another American innovation of combining sports. Hobby car racing & turkey hunting. Or maybe the game of Cops & Robbers. As I drink my coffee, I like it. Anyone else?

I’ll add to this informative thread on the thrust button(s) issue. The ‘65 suregrip 3:23 gear ratio had the pinion seal replaced in the 842 case. I reinstalled the 2 thrust buttons and used a longer split pin, because at first I thought there wasn’t a pin between the buttons. Indeed a short...

We went to mass with the in-laws at 5:30 last night to a small standing room only Church. Before it even started I told my wife “I'm going outside." I can’t stand in one place for long, bad for my back. I walked around the Church that was located across from the Billion Dollar College...

Here is a timely episode. It used to be available on YouTube but it’s not now. It was found here. Good old Art Carney!

The convertible replacement ones did sell out, I had bought a set from Tony’s. There were a few on eBay for awhile but are hard to find now. I had seen mentioned on this site that some people were using the 4-door b-body moldings and creating their own. I have a set from a ‘68 Coronet 4-door...

After watching a great interview with Alfred Hitchcock on an old Dick Cavett show it lead to seeing for the first time a very intriguing movie from 1940. There is so much happening in each scene that watching it a second time with others is a definite must.

Just to add to your Black Friday Spectacular here is a friends’ car that is active around the Chicagoland area, Joliet, Great Lakes Wi. and RT41 Dragstrip in the middle of nowhere Indiana (you should wander there sometime). 83K views · 2.5K reactions | This is a 1964 Plymouth Fury Race Car...
