    Are LED headlights a worthwhile upgrade?

    Yea, I did those measurements a while back as part of a discussion/claim about LED headlights not drawing enough current to warrant the use of relays, that the stock 16ga 50+yearold wiring/components would be sufficient. If not clear by those numbers, strongly disagree.

    NOT MINE 70 Monaco Couch

    I REALLY like the desk idea! If only I could convince MRS SIPLOWGUY..... A friend of mine mounted a 1968 Fury I deck lid on the wall of his garage and used it as a desk. It is really cool!

    Maybe if it doesn't sell I'll make a couch out of my 62 Imperial front clip. Or maybe a desk?

    NOT MINE 1977 New Yorker coupe. Ohio FB $3500

    "Points ignition system changed over" I wonder if that means the lean burn distributor was converted. Would this car have had Lean Burn?

    Here is the full ad, as the height of buildings in the background helps narrow it down.

    What to Replace when Redoing interior HVAC components?

    You can use an ohm meter to test the electrical side of the switches first. Ideally, you want to see zero ohms, but anything over 0.3 ohms and they need to be repaired. If the mode buttons on the selector switch are real stiff, it should come apart to be cleaned and lubed. There may be a...

    What to Replace when Redoing interior HVAC components?

    IMHO... If it's working, leave it alone. Any "new" reproduction stuff isn't going to be as good. NOS should be better in theory, but realistically NOS stuff is sometimes an expensive crap shoot. If the hoses are still pliable, they will probably last longer than new ones.

    Wanted Advice On 383 Big Block

    Compression readings are relative to the elevation altitude of the vehicle when the test is done. Most of the specs usually indicate "At or near sea level". As long as the readings are within about 20psi, all is good. When I was "worried" about cylinder wear on our '66 Newport 383 2bbl, I...

    What to Replace when Redoing interior HVAC components?

    Finally got the dash halfway disassembled in my 1965, and found the severed vacuum line that fed to the control block and kept everything from working. While I am in there, I am going to buy a vacuum gun (any suggestions on which one?) and test operation of all the plenum door vacuum actuators...
