Re: Mello Tones on a Y block

I've had Flowmasters and others, and they've been good, but I love the sound of the Mello Tones.

Re: It has arrived

Good looking '56. I've had one or another of them for the past almost 60 years now. It's a good ole car & fun to have.

Re: Where to get a replacement gas cap?

The Stant G22 gas tank cap came today and is a perfect fit. The listing on the eBay ad has it as a Chrysler, DeSoto, Dodge, etc, but as evintho pointed out, on the box, the list goes on to include...

Re: Where to get a replacement gas cap?

evintho for the win! I think that the "ears" need to be longer, and based on the picture he shows, it looks like a match for me. I've ordered it from ebay and it will be here next week. I'll let you...

Where to get a replacement gas cap?

Re: 1955 Crown For Sale

That is exactly what I thought when I noticed the steering wheel. Looks like the death grip on the steering wheel I've read so much about. Poor guy.

Re: Makeshift repairs to get it home

Sort of similar story: my '63 Falcon exhaust pipe support bracket broke, under the middle of the car, running over some root or something, and I "fixed" it by bending a wire coat hanger around the...

Re: Duplicate Keys

Just last week I took my specialized house key blanks to Ace Hardware. These blanks are pretty expensive, and hard metal. Ace cut them, no problem.

Re: Great Race 2021

I enjoy the progress posts, so please post away. The Great Race stopped here in Wilmington, NC, a few years ago, and I stopped over to see the vehicles. Quite a varied display and all in good shape.

Re: ABS warning light

Sort of a similar problem.... I've got a '98 Acura CL that I've owned since new. The ABS sensor light on the dash has been on for over 12 years now. The ABS does work, but it'd be over $500 to get...

Thumbs up Re: Leaking differential

Re: Leaking differential

The "hopefully it won't leak when finished" comment makes me chuckle, because it has been my history to almost always goof up something I tighten and have to do it over just to stop a weeping leak. :D

Re: Leaking differential

Yeah, I'm concerned about him having to chase after the seal & parts. I'll offer to chase them down at NAPA, if that'll help speed him along. I'll keep you posted. Thx again.
