$165 is a great price if you can get it! Around here it is close to $375 http://www.fortwayneclutch.com/index.php/driveshafts.html?cat=16

When I had that issue it was caused by week springs on the breaker points---hook up a dwell meter and rev the engine, if the dwell changes with RPM it's probably the points/spring

Brain fart--I should have typed "noise suppressor" --not spark suppressor...obviously you want a spark

Resistor plug is the plug that is used when you have a radio--Autolite 306 and 303 are listed as resistor / spark suppressor plugs. Autolite 295 is the standard plug

I have the ECI brakes on my '52; they work fine but if I had it to do over I'd go the RustyHope or Scarebird way. My only complaint with the ECI brakes is that they do not clear the standard rims on my P23, so the conversion costs about $300 more just to buy a new set of matched rims

I used E-Z-boy for my interior 5 years ago; I was/am very happy with their product. I see, tho, that they have been bought out by another company

Looks like something the "Tin Man" from Oz might drive

So I have a one gallon engine!

I've been thinking about doing this on my P23--can't wait to see how yours looks

They look good and mean with those big rear wheels

Make sense, I hadn't thought of this...

And I only saw a pair of ....carburetors; probably should have my eyes or testosterone checked

I think it only comes in British racing Green

Holy Stirling Moss Batman! Is that a real XK120C?

Here's what my Cousin picked up In Minneapolis last year

I was raised MOPAR, my first 3 cars were Mopar but nothin' (bless me Father for I am about to sin) epitomizes the golden age of US autos like a '57 Chevy.

For filling my transmission and diff: It holds about a pint of oil, so a couple of shots and the job is done: Lumax Suction gun--amazon has them

Joe, Here's the name of the pump I use: Lumax LX-1185 Black 18 oz. Suction Gun with 12" Vinyl Hose ...I paid just under $12 for it two years ago

Don, I just saw this posting--I don't usually check out this room of the forum. I did enjoy hangin' with you and seeing in person your blue Plymouth with the big 265 flat head and that beautiful Champion Radiator Just to clear things up--my car has a 1950 Dodge Power wagon 230 cu in. engine; rebuilt .030 over. Head has probably been shaved about .020 I'm guessing---compression is 120-140 psi. The transmission is a rebuilt '52 overdrive from the Plymouth guru George Asche. Things not original: 12 volts, ECI disc brakes, Mustang dual master cylinder, front Buckets/captain chairs ( I think they're from a Ford 350 van), offy intake manifold and dual B& B carbs, radio upgrade to modern stereo, new rear seats and door panels (EZBoy), Jeep console and Wheel Vintique HRR wheels I was planning to go to Port Huron but life happens-- I have a commitment on Friday evening so I can't make the festivities. However I am free most of Friday day, so I would enjoy convoying with you as far as Coldwater MI

Here' what I use--It holds about 10oz. I picked it up on amazon several years ago

Larry, I expect my engine would clash with your exterior. PO had the engine just painted silver when the engine was rebuilt. I painted the head Hemi-Orange and most accessories gloss black; if I ever have the engine out of the car I will paint the block black.

We tried to paint white walls on a friends car way back when (like 40 years ago). My memory was that the paint never really cured; it was always a bit sticky and attracted dirt like a magnet. Does the Krylon work reasonably. I like the Hub caps, they remind me of the Ben Hur chariot race

I really like the look of the wire wheels--but know myself well enough to realize that I would never keep them clean

Very Classic--is your car as stock inside as it looks in these pictures?

Sounds like a process that requires a steady hand, patience and a good mask
