Re: cleaning intake

What have used to clean some small stuff is the cheap starting fluid from Walmart. It really cleans oil spots from the driveway. You might also try some Dawn soap and water.

Re: 80 years ago today

In our day we learned real history as many of our teachers were war vets. In todays world they're more worried about whether they are a man or woman.

Re: Shoebox seatbelt installs

Sounds liked the slide mechanism is not allowing the seat to move further back. I once owned a shoebox coupe ('49) and I had plenty of seat room when the seat slid back. I'm 6' tall. Did somebody...

Re: Hot Start 1950 Merc

I would look at rebuilding the existing starter. Sounds like you cleaned it up, but did not rebuild it. Rebuild it and add the Optima and you should be good to go.

Re: Third brake light suggestions for 6 volt '40 Ford Tudo

The small LED lights that double as mounting bolts work well, but not sure if you can get them in 6 volt.

Re: Third brake light suggestions for 6 volt '40 Ford Tudo
