Re-Install the axles the other day after my friend removed and replaced the old bearings.
Took it out for a spin and all is quiet now and no more vibration.

When I took that drive out to Byron I heard some humming and had a vibration coming from the rear of the car. It got louder on my way back home.
To make my life easier working on my cars I purchased a quickjack from Costco and assembled it last weekend and have already put it to good use.
Pulled the rear Passenger side axle and found this,
Wonder if this was causing the humming and vibration. The gear oil is pretty dark. Will pull the diff cover and give it a good cleaning.-

Thought I would start a thread on a 1969 GTO I purchased back in November of 2019.
To date I have replaced upper and lower ball joints, Control arm bushing, Coil springs front and back, had the original Harrison radiator recored.
Typical tune up parts, plugs, plug wires, distributor rotor, point and condenser and cap.
Hood hinges and springs.
Had the Quadrajet Carburetor rebuilt.
New BF TA tires installed.
Replaced some of the dash lights with Leds.
Upgraded the Exhaust system
Pic of GTO at my nephews
Saturday I took drive out to Byron Dragway to watch stepnephew run in test in tune.
No I did not drag the GTO
This 62 Lemans/ Tempest is a guy I work with he ran a 8.03
It was a great to get out and watch the cars run.

You think I should replace all of them.
Was hoping to just fix this one tire and when the brass stems come available I will replace all of the drive wheels tubes then.
For the side mounts I reused the best old white walls and I don't recall if I replace the tubes back in 2013.
thanks for your feedback

Hello,
I am looking for a fuel pump rebuild kit for my 1931 Packard.
I sent out phones calls and emails to three different companies with no responses.
Does anyone here have a go to company for fuel pump rebuild kits?
Thanks

I am dealing with that right now. Had the Packard out the other day and as I was pulling off main road and only a few house anyway from home the left rear tire went flat. Pulled tire and found the cable stem leaking at point where it is valcanzined to the tube.
Called the place where I purchased the tires (back in 2013) and no luck they don't have the tube in stock. Called the parent company same thing and with no eta when they will be getting them.
Called Lucas today only type they had in stock which has the rubber stem (I need the one with brass stem). I ordered the rubber stem anyways since I like the get the Packard out again. Been almost 5 years since the last time I had it out of the garage.
Another issue I am having is trying to have businesses to call me back to let me know if they have a rebuild kit for the fuel pump. Called and emailed three different places.

Good Morning All,
Was going through the garage attic to do some winter cleaning and came across a box of magazines.
I am willing to part with these if anyone is interested in them.
I also have two boxes full of Packard Magazines
AACA Magazines from roughly starting from 2000ish to present
Picture below is a sample of want I have
Price would be free but you would have to pick up. As we know shipping could get pricey

That’s a great helper, we all need a laid back friend.
That picture was taken back in 2017 a few months before we had to lay him down to rest. I miss him dearly.
And yes he was a very laid back 85 pound diabetic lab and white shepard little pup.
When I would be out in the garage working on the Packard he would be standing by the back door crying to be out there with me. Would drive my wife nuts.
