Since I've driven mine to work a few times now, one of the sales people I work with tells me that there is a white one that looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor here in Rutland. I have a rough idea where he's talking about, but have not taken a drive out that way to look for it. If...
I remember seeing it there years ago (sometimes out front and sometimes tucked away in that shed in the back yard) and then I didn't see it for years. I always figure he probably gave in to people asking if it was for sale. I was surprised to see it.
I'm assuming your reverse lights are more...
@Seth S , I'm not sure if you're on 4 or not, but my wife and I went to Woodstock this past Saturday for the alumni parade. I had my eyes peeled the whole trip for a root beer 60... I didn't see one, but I did spot a blue and white 55 just outside of Woodstock. So cool... so roached....
Yeah, the classic plates... I was meaning in a temporary sense if you needed to get the truck to different places to get work done on it. There are certain things that I either don't have the tools or just feel might be over my head. That and the occasional recreational drive. I'm glad to...
True enough about the "too much driving for classic plates". In certain towns (ahem, Bridgewater), the cop is pretty much a permanent installation.... not that you would get pulled over for speeding....
I think the logic of the classic plates is a little backwards anyways. I inherited a car...
I had the alternator rebuilt and while I was in there decided that belts should be freshened. Hopefully the new alt will make the idiot lights shut off... then off for some exhaust work. Hopefully that'll be enough to get it to pass inspection. If not, maybe I'll switch the registration to a...
I'd be pretty happy to see POR 15,@NeverGiveUpYota if it was done on the frame of body off resto. I did the outside of a gas tank with it and it pretty much "locks" everything up in it's path.... I would not be thrilled if someone used it as an undercoating. The rain gutters on my fj are kind...
@NeverGiveUpYota, what some of these garages are using for undercoating up here is waste oil. The new big thing that I'm liking the looks of is called FluidFilm (sp?). It's lanolin based and doesn't dry up or fall off like oil undercoating does. I think if I had the itch to drive mine in the...
I know I'm late replying about your side view mirror as I just signed up last week. I purchased the glass for mine at a local glass and lock shop. It was made by Burco... $25 I think.
