    Yup Pretty much every tire manufacturer still have them available. But they'll need to be special ordered. And there's always Coker tires, Coker Classic Tires | Classic White Wall Tires | Coker Tire® , for a lot more $$$$

    My 71 Duster work in progress

    I've had cars, (and bikes) with both hydraulic & mechanical actuation clutches. The ONLY advantage that comes to mind is a hydraulic perpetually adjusts itself at each usage. (How often do you need to adjust your clutch?) On motorcycles hydraulics are a Godsend vs cable. Cables tend to come...

    Thanks in advance. Can't say that I'll ever need them, but if I do, I'll be glad they're here.;)

    The engine was painted in the factory with the balancer installed. So black or raw would be incorrect. But I'm just a "numbers" type weirdo.:geek:

    The reasons why I've learned to save the oil pan install 'til after the timing cover & harmonic balancer. An old trick you may consider is to stuff some clothes line type rope through a spark plug hole. Don't forget to reverse the engine to remove it.🤔

    RUSTY Cuda said: "Those pieces on the rail sure look factory, there's a bolt hole & a positioning tab & corresponding holes in the rail?" Those are for "B" bodies with dual exhaust, Coronet R/T's, Roadrunners, GTX's, Chargers. They were used with these type of tips. (Of which I have 2 cars)

    A cheap & simple way to check clearances like an oil sump is the crumple a small amount of aluminum foil, install, then remove & check thickness.

    Do you think you'll be able to reach up there and peal off tape after it's gooped down? 😆 Most windshields are installed using a butyl rope,...no mess.

    A12 - time to get busy

    A long time friend, now passed, that ran an upholstery business, had a saying: "The dissatisfaction of poor workmanship far outlives the discomfort of high costs".

    If the tan cap has a vent with a black cap on it, that's the one you want. Tan is OEM color and vented caps are a big plus. Electronics create heat.

    I use acetone for prepping for paint and as a small engine carb cleaner. Put about 1 oz. per gallon in the tank. Saves the work of pulling the carb apart on your lawnmower, motorcycle, even a moped.

    An RTV type product on the underside of the rivets works best. GOOP or E6000 work best. Let it cure overnight and you'll have to chisel it to get it off.
