That makes for somewhat of a fix. I got the wrap version which works fine. But Max says they look "cheesey" and he may perhaps not be alone in that assessment. This "wheelskins" looks like it might h

I considered having a car hauled from Kansas to Montana. After calling around, Passport seemed to be the best bet as far as service and pricing, just like Vinnie describes. They seem like a very prof

On a related note, I will likely be replacing the wire wheels on my BGT in the near future, as soon as I finish my 72B restore. A couple of the wheels are not quite true. In checking the Dayton wheel

Technically speaking, "drinking water" will not harm the car battery. The danger that the water would present would be in the form of alkalinity (carbonates). The higher the alkalinity, the more sulf

If its a real deal, make sure they pay what is due, no excess, and allow several weeks to insure the funds are good (or get your bank to sign off on something to that effect) before you make the next

This would seem most logical. Except since the only luck I have is bad luck, so if I have a 50-50 chance, its a sure bet, I'll do the wrong one. Except that I have done both of these before. Yes, I

I removed my windshield bolts before I removed the dash with no problem. You should be able to remove and replace them without moving the dash. But it looked like it would be easier to put the bolts

I'm not sure what the pour point would be for 20W/50 (and perhaps it varies by brand) but I'm pretty sure it will flow, like syrup, at 15F. I believe it will be below zero (F) when it gets difficult
