Re: LED bulbs
My latest project is a 1970 Triumph Bonneville motorcycle. It is 12 volt, but it is also POS ground. So I will hopefully be able to get LED's for it.

Re: Oil canister for EAB 52 Ford
Actually I use an old Turkey baster to suck out the remaining oil in the filter housing/canister. Then take paper towels and wipe the rest out.

Re: Do rivet nuts work?
I used them on the frame of the car, how thick is the metal floor?
Mine were hexagon, going into hexagon holes, you will be probably be using round. Could you tack weld them after installation?

Re: New seal for PS ram.
I am lucky, in that when we built our house, we dug the garage, below the house, into the side of a mountain, so the garage is literally 9' below ground level and it never gets below 45 degrees, no...
