    Lug nuts frozen - HELP!

    I'm having a hell of a time getting my lugnuts off on my 66 300. I moved to Mississippi recently so I think rust may be the issue. I've used my 1/2" impact with 1000lb/ft of torque but no luck. I've also tried jumping on a breaker bar to "shock" the rust loose. Still lo luck. Any...

    Imperial wheels - backspacing differences?

    Is there any difference with regards to backspacing on Imperial wheels from the slabs through formals? I need 3 factory wheels for my new blue beast (68 Crown Coupe). I found one on a 68 and two on a 73 at the yard this weekend but didn't pull the trigger in case there was a difference on Budd...

    Disc master cylinder size

    So as I'm anxiously awaiting my rebuilt dual diaphragm Bendix from Dewey/Steve, I've been cleaning up all my junkyard conversion parts for installation. Other than the booster, my spindles, calipers, rotors, distribution block, and mc are from a '73 Town & Country. One thing I noticed though...
