Spamalot is playing here later this month...unfortunately, Suzanne is hard to convince about Python.
I took my 16 year old to see it last year. He loved it even if he didn't get all if the humour. Did someone say spam, spam, spam, spam.

Looking for a set of White Deluxe interior lower armrest pieces, not cracked. Possibly floors/inner rockers and a crossmember but shipping may be a killer there.

I had one made for my 64 by Mike Trommeter on the V8 board. Nothing on it about it being a non original sticker. Looks just like the originals.

Hopefully it can be viewed the same as city stickers on the windshield, you just have to have them. Documentation, Documentation, Documentation.

Where do you get this product and how costly is it?

I have a hood lip moulding you can have for shipping, though it may not be any better than the one you have. I also have a pretty good rear chrome moulding that goes above the rear bumper. $50 plus shipping.

I had a 8000 mile 69 Electra and had a hard time insuring it. Hagerty finally let me insure it for the Old Car Price Guide #1 condition value after many pict were sent. I had several companies decline coverage.
I would estimate less that 10% of original production still exist almost 50 years later.

I have looked in the shop manual, the features and facts book, the accessories guide and the parts manual and nowhere does it show and installed compass.
Put it wherever you like. There is a mounting spot in the middle of the dash for the tach or guidematic, maybe there if you don't mind putting a hole in the dash pad.

Here is a pict of my 64 Riv with a correct, per shop manual, tach installation on the dash.

There is a guy outside of Chicago in Orlans Park maybe, that can probably fix it. He did mine a few years ago. He may even be in the Riview, Al Vremikis I think is his name.

The following comments are not meant as a personal position against adding editorial content to the Bugle. I also agree Pete has done a wonderful job and Bigger is probably better.
A potential downside to this is attracting new members to local chapters. Right now, the best we can do at our local level is have a potential new member spend $50, $35 National + $15 Local dues to join. Some, but not all potential new members are members of the GS Club or ROA members and already pay dues to those organizations. An additional $50 to join what will probably only be a local organization can be a tough sell. A $65+??? to join, may be a deal breaker. Membership is down both locally and nationally be it from the economy, more "old car" opportunities, an aging membership or a combination of all of the above.
I would love to see a Bugle optional membership that would allow local chapters the ability to attract new members into their chapters without the potential scare factor of a $50 + $local dues cost to join. I think we should be making it easier for new members to join.
To those here that say it is only an extra $ insert your preferred figure here, and it is worth it, what is an extra $$$$$, remember many younger members may not feel it is worth all that for what is probably only a local involvement.
Any other options that would allow local membership without paying fullboat national dues would be great too.

I have a set of NOS replacement hoses and they do have the ribs running down one side. Also remember that the hoses were originally moulded with the curves built in, I'm guessing to prevent kinks.

Anybody have a good source for replacement brake hoses for a first gen Riv. had a leaky wheel cylinder develop while in winter storage so it is probably time to do them all and the hoses too.
thanks
