A good friend of mine is working across the street. Running his digger, getting the site ready for a new house. Not his, the new home owner moving from the big city. I made extra coffee for Ozzy David if he stops by.

Thanks Tom! I did indeed enjoy it. Although I did not go and it is definitely on my bucket list, the cars there are always top notch.

Welcome

I never swap out reverse bands unless they are damaged. My racecar has had the same kickdown band since 2014. Close to 900 runs. Looks like new everytime it's been torn down. Doug

Appreciate the offer 69Bee - gonna stay on the hunt for now for an NOS cable

the an award? :lol:, I am assuming you mean an award. I am looking forward to hearing more on the award, and the car… of course.

I would agree with you on that also. I know everyone's view of "acceptable" condition varies but I would say if they were just solid body, non runners that were mainly complete they would be a good buy. Running and driving, definitely a very good buy. It's getting hard to find a clean bodied...

Ditch 'em. Coopers Cobras are a little less expensive and have a nicer looking tread IMO.

Thanks but would prefer originals for this car.

The "foreign" car appeal, only started with me in the last 15 years or so. I'm just so burned-out, after 50 years of mopar-only, and watching the hobby and people change.

I can hold my own MCACN show right here in my garage! I got a Corvette and 13 other muscle cars right here in my garage! And not one dog dish hubcap to be found! Lol

Welcome from B.C. ...

I got these Lockheed American made ones off of eBay and they worked fine. https://www.ebay.com/itm/325043373715 (Rears)
