Koni's are a good recommendation! I think Bilstein or KYB are also a good choices.

KYB Gas-A-Justs are like a steel rod and are very harsh. I've thrown them in the garbage. KYB Excel Gs are stock replacements and provide a comfortable ride.

It's on Marketplace. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1344886660653689

Could be an aftermarket plate made incorrectly or the bracket not formed correctly. Or both. And some reproduction plates have incorrect shock tab angles which misaligns the shock. I have plates in storage and can't remember if original or not.

If it's old paint or product I wouldn't worry too much about lead. Lost track of how many cars we've stripped with lead paint. Wear a mask. I have a clean bill of health.

Try Steele Rubber. I've spoken with them about a 57 Chevy I'm doing.

1 each in the trunk rear corners & one in the rh front fender

Should be four. One in each corner. Best of luck finding #4! They do still turn up once in a while (but scarce)

There are six different listings on Marketplace now for cocktail shakers. And that's just in new england.

This is an old thread but I am looking for a mint set of N96 wheel covers and seeing some that look black and some that look silver.
I believe the 66-67 ones had a raised center part compared to the older ones but not sure if I need black spokes or natural

They've been on Marketplace often in the last six months. and as recently as yesterday. I'd have to locate the ad.

Speedo issue could be the cable. How did you determine the speedo is defective? Tach may need a filter if it worked with points and not HEI. Or you wired it incorrectly. Lot of rebuilders out there. Do a search, ask other people. I used Bob's Speedo once.

Glen-Ray has done radiators and heater cores for me as well.

I was looking at Lectric Limited's conversion kit: https://www.lectriclimited.com/product/breakerless-se-electronic-ignition-conversion-7/
The Crane set-up looks interesting.


I've seen an HEI squeezed in there, but I think how much room depends on the engine mounts.

I put that on a customer's car and the builder ran it on the dyno. Generally he uses Crane. I'd use Breakerless if and when I get rid of the points distributor I've been running for over 75K miles. It's only one wire so it appears more stock for those who prefer it, which does not concern me.

Looks good.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate all the great information.

I tried to reply to your message but this site is still smoked. "Resource Limited" Messages do not go through. Tried many times.

I know what William was saying. The consoles I sold were not repro and were ivory painted black. Over 30 years in storage. I paint for a living and they were not black painted over another color.

Consoles were molded in black plastic. Only the lid and ash tray cover were painted.

Green, blue and red consoles were painted to match.

I recently sold an original 68-69 console and the plastic was ivory, not molded in black.
