Have you looked at the Porsche Cosmics? They are just plain off the mark!!
I just don't like them! I love 4 bolt Cosmics but the 5's look a bit too busy for me!  No way!  |

I'm with you on this one Zach. Cosmics must be Porsche 5 bolt to look right.. The ones with the M&Hs on them are way cool!  |

I still want to have a chat with you about old skool engines Talking of old school engines, was talking to JHU on the phone last night. We came onto the subject of full flow filters. When I think about it, I have never seen a HP1 hanging from the rear bumperbracket of any of the early cars..When did this "trend" start? When did people start using full flow systems on theyr cars, and what kind of filtration did they use on the small cc IDA street motors from back in the day.. |

Rune, you know I have only been thinking of that mirror you mentioned... Flashing red alarms should be ringing, but they don't...  |

Hi Rune Most all the Cars Back then either Ran the EMPI oilPump filter Combo Or an HP 1 Filter system most of the cars had them tucked up in the fender well and in the later years they mounted the oil filter adapter on the traction bar with the use of a u bolt if you look behind the rear tire on the chop top you can see the oil filter or also the 67 most guy's mounted them down others mounted them sideways |

For the true period look, I'd save the old stuff, melt it down over a primus stove and re-use it. But what do I know?  |

I was able to get light grey seam sealer from my autofactors. You can brushable and cartridge.

I used light grey too. I masked off where I didn't want it and then squeezed it out of the cartridge with a gun. Once I'd got a bead of it on the panel edge I worked it in with my finger - messy but most satisfying! (I just know someone is going to quote that out of context!) Best NOT to wear latex gloves - they tend to stick to everything. You'll also find every sharp edge, point and spike of welding wire that you thought you'd got rid of... |

Hi Lee tiger seal is good thats what I use. its white and easy to use you can lay a bead down and wet the tip of your finger and smooth it out as you like, it drys hard over night you can get it in most automtive paint stores
