I do know about the ground with the rear lights. I made a point of attaching this to the grounding point before starting the car. What caught me off guard was that, even with the ground wires firmly

Just a quick success story. In reassembling my 78B this weekend after its respray, I followed Steve Bettencourt's installation instructions to the letter. As a result, the entire installation took al

My car's at home and I'm at work, so I can't look at it right now... but I think that the cable and Tee handle assembly itself provides the locking feature. I would guess it utilizes an off-round sh

To the best of my knowledge, the standard T-handle choke cable does lock in position as supplied. The one on my car is from a ~1973 B and locks. What you would want to verify is that the cable comes

Dan's right. This is what the OEM tonneau was designed for. In fact, your son could even leave the passenger half of the cockpit covered and just fold the driver's half back behind the seat (for that
