They're different to normal aren't they? Can't remember seeing "Auto Center" on them before?

Just got my pair of original DDS Deano Dynosoars wheels in the mail today. This time it’s a super rare pair of 15x4.5’s  not the common 15x5’s or 6’s.

These showed up yesterday, fresh off of HVW's website. The newer issue I got mostly for the article on Rhoads and Rayburns' '64 lookers, and the 1990 issue I got for very obvious reasons. It's in immaculate shape and I'm ecstatic that I was actually able to get a copy!



I also got a set of 44mm phenolic spacers from Gary Berg last week, but I spaced out getting a picture of those.

It's been a good couple weeks for my '67 Vert project that's coming up. All these items have been purchased online and except for the '67 only Bendix Tach they all came in the last week or so. I've had the Bendix Tach for a couple months now.


-Near Mint India Red Door Panel set. (Sedan Set but I should be able to use at least two if not 3 of the 4 panels)
-Empi Oil Temp guage
-'67 Bendix Dealer optional Tach
-Restored Sapphire VI Radio
-Sapphire V radio
-Very clean Bosch 019 Screamer
-Completely restored 010 Distributor. (This one is for sale)
-3 Super Hard to find NOS Bendix Speakers correct for '67 sapphire Vs and VIs
-Hurst Shifter
-Really nice Empi Door Pulls
-Last but definitely not least my single side post Bosch Blue tip antenna

Hi!

Some time ago the 3d printservice sent my self made filter-housings with build in airhorns and an "air-guide" at the filtertops.

[ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]

They are printed with hi-temp filament and are "tempered" after the print -  i hope they work Wink

Looks Nice! Did you draw them yourself?
What filters are they made for?
Any chance you are willing to share the file?  Grin

Hi Glauco!

Yes, i did them myself, they are for the usual K&N idf/drla filters.

In this one the trumpets are 53mm high and the filter bottom sit about 10mm above so with a 80mm high filter there is about 40mm  space to the filter-top i am using a 100mm filter so there is more than enough room left for the "airguides".

They are also 2mm off center so they sit a bit closer to the fan shroud.

After i tested them and i know they work and can handle the temps  and stress in the enginebay i can make a (custom) set for you if you like.

Nice greetings

Marcel

Full set of Cosmics, 4 bolt, £100 because they only had two caps... If I could invent a time machine I'd go back and punch myself in the face for not buying those!

Picture me annoyed when the original 4 bolt Cosmics I had lent to my mate (after buying them from him!) were on, my old beetle Id sold to him, when the council towed and disposed of it!!!!
