  1. I would take out the brake lights one at a time and see if that fixes the problem. If one of the glass part of the bulb twists and crosses the other wires it might cause the problem. Also look closely at the bulb socket. Might have something shorting in the socket... Just some thoughts.
  2. The best stuff to use today is Pipe Sealant with Teflon made by Permatex. Here is a link http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/permatex-high-temperature-thread-sealant-.2-oz-59214/7010664-P
  3. I second the comments on George. He does fantastic work. Highly recommend him.!!!
  4. I agree, but there might have been something else. Just a thought. Here is a picture of a "U" shaped tool that can be used with a bench press. http://www.agcoauto.com/content/news/p2_articleid/189
  5. Some of the cars have a plastic injected to retain the caps. If it has the plastic, some heat on the area of the drive shaft will have the plastic squirting out of a hole and then the cap can be pressed off as explained earlier
  6. I was there and it was a FABULOUS weekend. Saturday was packed with great cars.!!
  7. Small is because I had to make the original photo smaller / resize it to be able to up load it. If you want the original large photo, pm me with your email and I will send it Thanks to everyone for trying to figure this one out.
  8. I have been asked to see if anyone can identify this truck. I was told that the picture was taken in Egypt years ago. Thanks
  9. Just a thought. I had one of the Kodak cameras at one time. I eventually went out and bought a new camera because the picture pixel count is so much better, pictures are much better and easier to use. I think I paid like $90.00 for a very good general use camera.
  10. Went out riding with the wife and even went to the grocery store to pick up some groceries.
  11. These are very wise words. I have had wood cut for a couple of projects and the sizes are everywhere. You need wood with sizes (like used on my one truck) 10/4 X 7 1/4 X 12-1/2 ft. I ended up becoming friends with a guy that owns a saw mill and a kiln. The one project takes over 400 board ft of lumber.
  12. Have you tried to put a little bit of prying pressure in the split on the front?
  13. Was this a government position that you retired from?
  14. If you have some pictures, that would help, but based on what you are describing, I would not have a problem using the bearings. The fingerprint might have been from someone finding they needed a different size. Just a thought.

    Buick Opel Wagon

    My Opel wagon replaced a 63 Skylark station wagon with the small aluminum V-8 engine with a 4 barrel carb. Thirsty little Buick. The Opel was the first vehicle that I owned that got over 20 mpg.
  16. Was there on the Back to the Bricks event and dedication of the most recent statue. Great event.
  17. The comment about paint quality is right on. I can remember inspecting as a rep vehicles that had "paint icicles" dripping from the bottom of the doors in the 80's, and these were new 10 mile cars.
  18. I purchased a similar one in the 70's from the dealer and it was metal backed and said Chevrolet.
  19. Are you sure that it is not a radiator cap? That would be my guess.
