  1. Under the distributor. A fat one of the right diameter.
  2. I would like to suggest that new people make sure you post your location because we seem to be everywhere. Help could be closer than you think.
  3. I'll bet it cleans up well enough to use.
  4. Congratulations Rodney, I guess they recognized your talent.
  5. A rubber o-ring from the plumbing dept. at the hardware store will work perfectly.
  6. A "poly" engine has a polyspherical combustion chamber, while a "hemi" emgine has, guess what, a hemispherical combustion chamber.
  7. Consider yourself lucky, Joe. I've been told there's nothing happening between my ears.
  8. How could you not llike that? After all, he got what he wanted AND deserved!
  9. The Tip-Toe shift has a relay and a lot of wiring mounted on the air cleaner brace. If I remember right.
  10. Congratulations! Thats a fine looking family you've got there.
  11. The kids are yelling "The book says .035, mom".
  12. It also has the bigger rear window, unlike the Plymouths.
  13. I see, probably a homemade vanity plate then.
  14. If you pause the movie when the camera first passes over the front bumper, you can see that the plate clearly says California at the top.
  15. I just think I may have gone a little too far there. I can see how that would be offensive to some, and I don't mean just Scots. There are ladies here, too.
  16. I apologize to any and all I may have offended. Seriously.
  17. I kinda wonder if the brass thing is there to take up the extra space in that long nut. Maybe its there only because the cable supplier used the deep nut. Will it come off? If it does, could you use the regular shallow nut?
  18. Don't forget to put oil in it !!!
  19. I don't know what those two guys are doing, and I really don't want to.
  20. Use a piece of 12 or 14 guage wire with alligator clips on the ends so you can just swat them off if you need to stop the engine in a hurry. Connect the wire to the negative battery terminal and the negative terminal of the coil. Touch the end of the negative battery cable to the starter terminal, and keep your hands away from the fan blades.
  21. That is amazing!!
  22. Thats another one of those things that make me uneasy. Fourty years ago, when I started work at the mill, A maintenance man I worked with wanted to sell me one just like that in light blue, He wanted $1500. That was in 1963 and I didn't have it. Its a real dreamboat.
  23. I don't know if it really makes any difference in cleaning, but in this kind of weather, 10-30 degrees, I seem to have less of a flooding problem. I think its because the oil in the cleaner is stiff and has a little choke effect. Or not. I do know that when I take the cleaner off and set it on the floor, it doesn't spill oil on the floor when I kick it over.
  24. Looks like you have a good solid start to a great project. I have a soft spot for 53's. That has great possibilities. Questions answered here, no charge.
