Re: Resonance
A friend of mine with a 30 coupe had vibration at a certain rpm, it sounded to me that it was the wood around the rear window. Maybe worth checking.

Re: Resonance
Sychro99,
Your idea of having someone stand on the side of the road to listen for the noise reminded me of an old time mechanic when I was a kid. He used to ride on the running board to listen for noises! Not advisable these days but manybe a friend could open the door and lean out to listen for the noise. David Serrano |

Re: Resonance
I recall a while back someone had loose radiator support rods that were causing an allusive noise.

Re: Resonance
Just a thought, those hood props can make a lot of noise if they are loose on the radiator support rods.

Re: Resonance
Thanks guys, you’ve made my day by making me laugh. I’m surprised that nobody suggested insulting a bunch of kids on a street corner, and yelling out and asking if any of them heard a noise as they chased your car.

Re: Resonance
A rattle I finally found, ended up being a very loose gas tank clamp way under the dash rail.
