I am new to the list (still Tiger shopping). I recently used a dynamat knock-off from ebay. It was called FatMat, I think, and worked quite well on a '66 Vette (floors and firewall). As noted, this s

The problem I have with ebay is twofold: 1) I get outbid a lot. I guess I am cheap . . .. and 2) when I win, I realize that I paid more for that item than anyone else in the entire world . . . . Ouch

About 10 years ago I was working on my '56 Corvette and wandered into an old parts store in a sleepy part of town to get a water pump . . . The guy pulls a rebuilt one off the shelf that looks correc

Having had a factory hyd t/o bearing go bad in an Explorer once, I DID NOT want to go that route. When they leak, you get a soaked clutch, etc. . . So I see your counterman's point. That said, it ha

Haven't towed the Tiger, but my 2003 5.4 Expedition handles the '41 Continental pretty well, and it is heavy. I bought the 5.4 and not the 4.6 for that reason. If I didn't tow much, as I do/don't, I'

That was good advice on having your paint store call PPG. Back when I was painting the '56 Vette, we called PPG and the guy at the paint store was writing down numbers as soon as the words Venetian r

Steve is right about Beaulieu, and it is not too far from Brooklands, etc. Really neat place, and I bet the swap meet would be fantastic. The only problem is you have to drive to get there, and they
