Re: getting into the Rumble Seat

Re: Distributor Cap Advance Lever Slot
I have four, two in cars and two in extra stock. All four have 1” slots. One has Ford script on it, likely a repro. I’ve had these for years and don’t remember where I found ‘em. The two on the cars...

Re: Florida Drivers
I had a friend in college who rode a Triumph and kept a 12” length of tow chain in reach in his saddle bag. I’ll let you riders figure out what that was for. :-)

Re: spark plugs
I used 3X for years before they got so expensive. Tried some others, settled on Autolite 3076 last year. So far, so good.
