Looks great! I'm lazy enough that I went to the good hardware store and bought gage-sized hole saws which did the job well. I DID have the cut out the...

Look near the base of the carb for the idle screw. Turn counterclockwise. Problem solved!

(Waddya mean, my knowledge is out of...

[DanStokes]

Thanks. Yeah, it really went pretty well. I never even filled my 'script for Oxycodone - don't like it and I'd have to be pretty bad off to take it....

British demo derby?

X2!!! I was having the same thought but Phil tree'd me.

Cool to see your new home coming together. I think this is such an excellent concept....

[DanStokes]

Same here. Our Parker store is Fensel Supply but it's the same idea. Got to be either a Parker or Swagelok store near you.

Thanks. That possibility of having to wait another SIX weeks convinced me.

(in references to adding the braces) Because if some is good more is better - and too much is just about right. I know 'cause I'm notorious for the same...

CURSES!!!! Went to the surgeon today for a follow-up and they say I have to wait 2 more weeks to do anything strenuous (like, pick up more than 10 lb.)....

Only us hot rodders would go to this much trouble to fit in big tires that we will then burn down to nothing. It's a sickness and I for one don't want...

[DanStokes]

Good and bad ideas are the same price on here. Mine, at least, are worth what you pay for them.

We can definitely make everything purple. When you're ready pull the gas filler door and take it to the paint store for a color match - they'll be able...

[DanStokes]

Bring it down! That red hood needs to be made purple, too - or the whole car needs a respray. Prep it at your shop and I'll come and teach you.

Glad that you found the fix. There always IS one!

[DanStokes]

But it's cool that you've ridden enough to burn off the tires. If they had been sitting in the trike shop the tires would still be OK.

Pick a date and come over. We'll fire up the PortaPower and shove that sucker back. I can borrow a stud gun but I really think the PP will be a better...

[DanStokes]

I like the trim. I think each car needs a little (emphasis on "little") bling. For sure you can have too much but what you have sets the paint...

ABSOLUTELY!

Mom had full dentures since before I was born and thought nothing of them. She had English teeth in the extreme, evidently. The first set were made...
