The new Led Zeppelin Documentary on Netflix reignited my appreciation for the original "Hardest Touring Band in the world"

Sadly grandmother has been gone for over 30 years! And I live 1900 miles from where I grew up! I was able to source foam locally. But they looked at me like I had 10 heads when I showed them the small piece I had. The people in my local place said " we haven't seen felt that thick in 20...

After the burlap comes the edge protection...thats where I'm at. Foam and seat cover to follow.

So I cannot find that super thick "felt" padding to ensure the barrier between wire and foam. I have 2 ideas..bare with me: 1. "Felt" moving blanket, folder over 4-5x makes approximately the same thickness as original. 2. Just spitballing here....formed split pipe insulation...5/8 or 3/4 ish...

I scored a 70 RR driveshaft...51.5" Car is a 69 Coronet...requires 52.05" And yes...the splines start like .8ish inside the yoke.

Just thinking out loud....I acquired a RR driveshaft for my BB swap...and running slightly over stock height springs...I'm 95% not worried too much about the .6" difference... But then there is that little 5% devil on my shoulder....thinking if there was a "fully splined" version... Thoughts...

Yeah....For 3k I'd go GVO...but if Trump gets us to 2 bucks a gallon...screw it!..lol

For an 18 or 23 spline? And what ratio do you end up with.... I thought Jamie only offered 18 spline sets. But if I'm going to spend 3k....id prolly go GVO for the auto launch feature. The way I read it on an A833..flip your 3-4 rod over...then... launch in first...click for 1stOver...at the...

No..it wasn't yesterday...but it was running, driving, and roadworthy and under $4k.Js No..I get it...and I do understand what your saying. It's just a rant, and a bit of shock......which I guess at our age should be finished off with.. "now stay off my lawn! " Side bar...what happened to our...

John Cope has a shorty 727 GVO adapter for 200 bucks on CRT.com....can't put 18" in a short tail adapter.

Already running 28"...not sure there is anything else that will fit.

I got it...the only way it makes sense...go old school....one hog head for fun....and another one for traveling. Anyone got a 489 with some 2.76s?

One of my 2 locals...is a 2wd c6..lol

Update...I just hung up with GVO. 727 adapters are now $ 1050 plus a $350 core if you dont send a functional one back to them regardless of make or model. Alot has changed in a few years...but a 45% increase? COME ON!...LOL So $2k to put in a used unit....$ 3200 for a new one.....or $3400 for...

For a few GVOs near by for sale..chevy and ford though. Need a long tail 727 or A833 GVO adapter. Anyone got a spare?
