What about a thin wall socket for tightning the nuts? It might not last long and crack pretty early, but it would work to tighten the wheel nuts. I've put quite a bit of torque on most of mine and th

I get the same stuff depending on the thread and how people are responding to the list. I always end up with lots of doubles if I post to the list. I have contributed it to people responding to my m

Fellow listers, I haven't weighed in on this whole club thing as well as the logo's as I really didn't think I cared one way or another. Then as I have thought about it I have decided that I would li

In my previous post about the tracker rear end, I was thinking more along the lines of a cheap source of independent rear ends than a monster spit. All of this talk of engine swaps got me to thinking

My mangled 1970 mk3 bonnet has amber lenses on it. This hood was squashed and yet both lenses are fine. They are amber with a little chrome ring around them. The bonnet was replaced at some time earl

I have at least two sets of wire wheels. However, none of them are in good shape. All are rusty. Is it worth having these wheels respoked? Is that something that is done on car wheels? Who does it? T

On my 1970, the dash backing is metal and the covering is plywood. Looks like luan. Then the wood is covered with vinyl on my car. I have been conteplating switching to a wood dash, a tooled stainles

I know every vintage car list goes through this subject, and it has quieted in the US somewhat. However, having been without leaded fuel for twenty years at least I can tell you that I have run unlea

I agree!! This sounds like a car that is pretty complete. Up here in the Northeast where the cars just sorta disolve, that would be a good car to start with. Why not make the entire gt6 a race car?

I've thought about this as well. My father has a set of four Mikunis that we have thought of adapting to his 1500. The only down side that I can find is that most of these carbs do not have a preinje
