Mine's a 3-rail and it almost touches the radio. In fact, the gear lever, if pushed hard, can brush one of the buttons. I had a '69 Spit with a mechanical push-button radio long ago. You had your fa

I'm making a wood dash for the '72 Spit, and have cut out the 3 individual pieces. And, finally, noticed that the wood grain is vertical, not horizontal (stupid, stupid, stupid !!! VBG). Has anyone

Just got a larger motor for the '72 Spit, a 1500, to replace the 1300. It will be nice to have a little more power !! (Jeff, are you listening?). The motor is out of a '79 and has a Stromberg carb.

Wouldn't that be nice ! But no, more appropriately, ventilation. Has anyone attempted to provide, (as Chevy used to call it), 'flow thru ventilation' ? Even with the top down, it gets hot inside the

That would be great. I was thinking of a vent somewhere in the area covered by the bonnet just forward of the door hinges. It's somewhat protected, yet still should get some air flow. There, normall

OK, just got back from Home Depot. They sell 3" dia. aluminium flex tubing, normally used for dryer venting. It's about $6 for a piece that starts out at about 2' and extends to 8', it's just perfect

Interesting, just happened to watch a tv show today on the hod rod show up in San Francisco (?). Some of those cars cost over $300k to build. Guaranteed none of them ever are used as 'daily drivers'
