I have a BRAND NEW one I'd part with BUT ... I'm in Canada !! We can no longer ship small items to the U.S. as regular mail - it has to go as "parcel" mail = more money (you know who to thank for that !!). Let me know if you're interested. I can post pics.

If I were going to remove drip rails I'd seriously consider getting rid of the front wing windows and related parts. And while at it, get some custom front and rear glass made to flush-fit in the actual opennings and get rid of all that trim as well.

If I were doing it myself I'd go for it - the thought had also crossed my mind at one point. But if paying someone to do that mod I think it'd be an expensive proposition. Having recently installed the roof rail trim on a freshly painted car I can tell you that the car looks naked (not in a nice...

You don't need to connect a battery if you use a meter. One side to ground and touch the tabs with the other. The key on tab will not complete the circuit. Now put the key in the "on" position and that tab WILL complete the circuit.

But some people will argue about anything !!

Getting rid of all the slop basically boils down to replacing every connection with a hiem joint. The z-bar pivots are usually ok as they are. The problem with keeping the over center spring on a diaphram clutch is at high rpm the clutch may not engage. The pressure from the spring and the...

The point of the hoist is NOT to have to crawl under the car !!!

Unfortunately I didn't take any photos. I set it up so the hydraulics were under the front of the car. I had the front arms extended as far forward as they'd go. I had the rear end (a nice heavy Dana) installed so there'd be as much weight as possible at the rear. The rear of the car was...

These things are not meant to be mobile. Occasional maneuvering - sure, but that's about it. If you do have to move it, raise it up a bit first - for some reason its a "little" easier to move.

MD6XP ... yes, I used one under my '69 RR. I was very useful to strip the car and do some mods as well as to do the full reassembly this past year. HOWEVER, they aren't the handiest thing now that the car is finished. Access to the middle underside is very restrictive. In my case the car sits...

I recently did something similar but don't recall which tab I used. However its easy enough to figure out with a test light or meter.

I have an issue just safely backing into my shop with only one side mirror and rear view mirror. I line it up with one side of the garage door and I put a block for the rear wheel to hit when I'm far enough back. That said, just stick a block where you want to stop. I can't see getting it close...

What sort of lift ??

Steam is steam ... anything that makes steam and is easy to handle will work. I used a clothes steamer I borrowed from a friend.

Good point.

440Source pistons are measured on the large flat surface - NOT the bottom of the dish or any raised portion. Yes, you want to measure on the pin centerline or close to it - if that means at the edge of the piston that's fine. FWIW the pistons on my 526 are .016 out of the hole - they should...

Exactly !! And things like LED lights and/or installing relays on your headlight circuit actually REDUCE the load on the ammeter.

Yeah, you DON'T want C-body brackets !!

Just keep scouring swapmeets BUT in MANY years of many swapmeets I haven't seen many decent pieces. In my opinion they seem to get damaged more by the guys taking them off and hauling them around than they would just left on the cars.

Can't help you there. You may have to keep an eye out for good used vents.
