  1. Vintage metalworks atwater,Ohio had one of his kits i think they’re the easiest and practical
  2. I used a mooneyes 12 volt Tach that they made a few years back that was small and period correct looking and got a converter from a fellow on this site that allowed me to use my 6 volt positive ground system. Works great. Auto meter makes the Tach for mooneyes
  3. How about a pair wired parallel
  4. Think you’re doing the right thing by adding the moldings to you car. It will completely transform the look of your car. My wagon was without any exterior trim and I located all the trim that was available and it makes the wagon. Be sure to fit the trim to body contours before installing. They tend to get a little bent sometimes when removed. Take the time to polish them before install and remove any dings its not hard to polish or straighten stainless the one thing I didn’t do was drill my wagon body for molding clips. I couldn’t bring myself to drilling holes. I sheared some aluminum slats that slide inside the back side of the molding then used 3M two faced molding tape to attach them to the wagon. Just like all new cars/truck have their moldings attached. 3 years and 10000 Miles later not one loose molding even my gravel guards are taped on
  5. I’ve got one of these units and plan on installing it on my 52 suburban everything is either new or rebuilt in the brake system with a remote fill reservoir looked at the remote vacuum brake booster but they recommend I use two boosters one front and one rear. Seemed like a lot of hardware Hoping someone out their had some experience with the E-Z power booster but I’ll update my experience with the effectiveness of this system
  6. Anyone have experience with these vintage kits to improve and assist brake performance
  7. Trying to find if Plymouth made different weight flywheels for 218 engines
  8. I’m looking for the factory weight of a 218 flywheel out of a 1952 Plymouth thanks for any info
  9. Does anyone know the weight of the factory flywheel has anyone lighten a factory wheel and how much thanks for any info or comments
  10. The Fulton visor will work fine have mounted several Fulton visors on different makes and model vehicles there’s enough adjustments to fit most roof lines and A pillars
  11. She’ll cruise all day at 75 and I did last years power tour 3000 Miles has factory overdrive 1800 rpms@ 70mph
  12. Stay with the flattie and my experience is dual carbs helped the most then the head and improved compression ratio then the split exhaust manifolds. I bored my motor .040 any good machine shop can perform this task and be sure the ignition system in good shape electric fuel pump to maintain constant fuel pressure. My wagon moves down the road way better than a stock one and gets 20 mpg and tons of looks when I raise the hood
