  1. That's fine too. I have enough projects laying around...
  2. Like JSM said, start with the L28ET motor complete. It is a much better starting position and EFI is more practical. Maybe Megasquirt. Lots of work and takes plenty of money to build a motor that will last
  3. I texted him today. He says he has several people that want to come today. He said first come first serve. I will touch base later in the week and see if he has it. I can't go until Friday. I think it is very rusty so it might still be there near the end of the week...
  4. Also, 73's have a delay wiper setting. The earlier cars don't...
  5. You all are wicked!!! Considering it though...
  6. Typically what sets off the excess fuel in the exhaust is a hot point. If you have a thin piece of metal in the new exhaust that gets really hot, it might even glow, it will ignite the extra fuel like a spark plug would.
  7. Yup, this is the correct method. Heat from welding will break down the panel adhesive
  8. Read through the comments on BaT... The buyer "Latebrake" produces several car events in the California area. Sounds like he has money and is going back to his 40+ year ago memories. It's not an original car is but is nicely done and appears very clean.
  9. You really need access to the panel from the interior too. Your repair will last better if your filler is thinner. Hammer and dolly from the inside and outside to get it close. If the metal is stretched, heat it and cool it with a wet rag to shrink it...Close is 1/16th of an inch or less 1/8" absolute max...
  10. Now if grannyknot will edit his quote all the will be washed away...
  11. A stud welder works even better than a screw in puller. Harbor freight has them I believe...

    Low mileage and low rust are wild card variables though
  13. Party tent!!
  14. They would probably say the same where I live but I am not sure I would tell them. Sooooo......

    The only NOS part in a box I remember is the fuel regulator...

    Gotta love fresh paint and a great booth!
  17. Now those are big boy toys!!!!
  18. These are old classic cars and look better with some sidewall versus really low profile tires. Just my opinion...
  19. That's a cool tool. I don't have one of those, yet. I suspect they make different sizes.
  20. I don't really relate to this desire. The car is very simple to begin with and the manufacturer didn't add anything they didn't believe was necessary. The brake light helps you know if you have a circuit failure in your brake system which you may not be able to tell otherwise...
  21. Talking to myself means: the conversation is always interesting and intelligent I win all the arguments
  22. 13k complete with a big dent in the hood and a ripped drivers seat...maybe, maybe not
