Just my two cents Under normal circumstances, drum brakes have been known to be notoriously inefficent, and unreliable. Although there are many who swear by the great performances that they obtain with their drum equipped Corvette, the majority would be better served ( not to mention safer )...

My Opinion The video's clearly show that no one has a monopoly on studpidity. As for his intentions, let none of you think for a minute, that he will just trash a vehicle in which he has just invested 5K. I have a pretty good idea of what his real intentions are, and nobody should take...

Got one I have just removed an original 1965 power brake master cylinder from one of the project cars I have in the shop. It was the original unit that had never been removed from the car. It was still working, and the condition although needing a rebuild, was excellent, with no damage to the...

Here's the only solution Here is, direct from the horse mouth, the only way you can use an Autometer fuel gauge, on 63 to 67 Corvettes. You will need to purchase, or replace the 90 ohm Autometer gauge that you have, and modify the original sender with one of their units. Here is what I have...

Gauge Update Rich, listen up here's the latest. I disconnected the power ( + Pink + ) to the sender, ( but I still have 12 volts to the gauge through the regular harness ) and the needle immediately returned correctly to empty, or left side of the gauge, which is good Now as a concequense...

Has anyone installed an Autometer fuel gauge, by splicing it into an original mid year Corvette harness. I have just completed the wiring, and although I have the correct 90 ohm gauge, when it's hooked up as per manfacturers instructions, the needle swings to the wrong side. When empty it...

Would anybody by chance, have any plans on attending the NSRA ( National Street Rod ) Reginal show next month in Burlington Vermont. I need to have some wheels sent, and because of the brokerage issue, I can't have them shipped cross border. If anybody can help with this problem, please...

I have just completed the installation of the underdash portion of the heating and air conditioning hoses. The job was made all the more difficult, because of the necessity of installing Stainless lines, ( as per the instructions of the customer ) and AN fittings on all the hose ends for the AC...

Count me in Hi fellows, Sorry for my lack of recent activity, but I have a lot of projects going these days, and little time to accomplish averything I would like to do. I will be on the fairgrounds from Wednesday morning until Sunday noon, at my regular vendor space at I 101 to 103. I...

Charles, if memory serves me correctly, we had discussed the purchase, along with the asking price, quite a while ago. However since I had not received any responce ( one way or the other ) from you, I advertised it locally, and it sold out the same week. Sorry that I am no longer able to...

Mark, Thank you in advance for the shuttle, however will will have to make arrangements on the fairgrounds, since my cell won't work out of the country. I will be at my usual vendor space, so I am certain our paths will cross. Drive safe Stepinwolf

Thank you Barry, The reason I went with this combo for the gauges, is because the complete interior is done in Green and White. Since this color option was not factory available in 67, I kept the color theme, through out the entire interior. The lettering on the cluster ( it can't be seen...

Sorry Charles, The car was sold and paid for, more then a year ago. Initially it was to be delivered to the customer on his wedding anniversary " July 31st 2007 ", and if my workload doesen't let up, I will be hard pressed to get it to him this year. Everything that was done on this "...

Mark, Thank's for your kind words, I am inspired by the type of work you do yourself. By the look of our parts, it look's as though we are shopping at the same supermarket. :boogie Looking forward to meeting up with you in a little while. I was told that we are once again pared up for the...

Mark, As requested, here are a few more under hood pics This engine would not work with a regular steering box. I installed a R+P, with a home made kit that I welded up myself. One other criticall area was next to the idler arm bracket bolt. There was no contact, but just to be on the safe...

Mark, Check in this evening for a few compartement close-up's. As for the AC, it was extremely close, but I removed a few offending lugs, :bang just to be on the safe side. Later,,, Stepinwolf

Charles, The clamps are commercialy available from "Walker " in assorted sizes. I have also seen them ( although I didn't need ) in stepped sized, ex. 3" to 2.1/2". They seal extremly well, but I have taken the precaution of wrapping a few turns of the high temp tape, under the clamp, before...

Jason, I finally got around to getting the exhaust system completed. Here is what the exit's look like. With 4" tubes there is no doubt as to how the gases exit, kind'a like what comes out of a semi. Thank's for asking Stepinwolf

Thank's Rich, will do,,,,, Step'in :w
