Nice use of the diner ashtray.
@mattressking Those photos should have a *warning* posted….”not suitable for all ages”. She’s BEAUTIFUL!
You should put that in a lighted display case and get another one for the truck!
Looks like jewelry, nice job.
It’s about as cheap of OD Matte as they come. I really like it too.

Beautiful job…you set the bar high. There is a big difference between a carb rebuild vs. restoration. Then, there are different grades of restoration.
Ciao Bella! So… questions because I’m trying to be a better restorer. Did/how/were you able to replace the diaphragm in those two sealed assemblies? If not, did the zinc plating not damage the rubber?
About a month ago, I had asked the guys here for a recommendation for spark plugs and a nice set of wires without spending $100 for just the wires. No matter where I’d look I could not find the specific numbers referred to me in that post. After a few days wound up at a web site called sparkplugs.com.
So about 38 days after I placed the order….these showed up.
BY THE WAY…nothing blew me away like the carburetor from @mattressking. I think I need a 16x20 print of that one for the wall…

That mattressking carb was definitely beyond beautiful. I would be proud to put that on a shelf in my living room.
Legend has it that it was a carburetor built by mattressking that was in the Briefcase featured in the movie Pulp Fiction.
Also did a starring role in the trunk of Repo Man…

Started a seatbelt cleanup on some marketplace find belts since the old aftermarket ones went away with the roll bar removal.
I put them in a bucket with hot soapy water to soak. Had lunch, went back to scrub them and sometime in between we lost water in the neighborhood. No one knows why or when it will be back.

Several years ago we had a Chevy Tahoe with a light grey interior, the carpet had gotten badly stained from a spill. Desperate to make it look normal again, I tried this fabri/carpet spray paint that actually worked…. I wonder if those seatbelts could benefit from that? It was the similar color.
True that. Issue resolved. The HL looks pretty good.Unfortunately, Costa Rica gonna Costa Rica sometimes.
What year 40 did you order these for. When I put in my year('77) it comes up with a different part number. Just don't wanna order the wrong thing.
Thanks
