  1. For those of you who could not attend, here's some photos of the "Best of Show" car from Galena. It's a gorgeous '65 owned by Paul Cox of Kenosha Wisconsin. This is 2x4 bbl. LX code non-GS car. I did not get any interior shots, as at the time I did not know it was going to win best of show! Enjoy it!!

    On Wisconsin!

  2. Looking for some help in determining the correct paint to use for restoring the steel wheels on my '64. Obviously I know that the color is black, but should it be a matte finish or glossy? Can anyone post a link to an Eastwood product (or any other provider) that has what I need? Thanks!!

  3. Took my '70 Riv to my mechanic due to a leaky radiator, and was advised that my carburetor also has a leak at the inlet. It appears that the inlet threads have been messed with, and as a result my mechanic says I need a new carburetor (unable to rebuild or repair). I know I can buy an after-market Edelbrock or Holley, etc., but I'm a stock guy and would really like to find a replacement Q-Jet. The carb number I need is 7040247LA. Anybody have one they'd be willing to part with? Thanks!

  4. The dash in my convertible is getting pretty faded due to sun damage. Last year in our welcome kits at the Asheville meet, there was some information about a recoloring kit called "Fade Away" from Just Dashes in California. Has anyone had any experience with this product/company? Here's a link to the product on their web site...

    Your comments, feedback, experiences would be appreciated.

  5. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: jimtash</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Off topic but one suggestion I have for this forum is to put two sticky threads up top that have to do with Ebay and Rivieras only. One just for cars and the other just for parts. Maybe it will help people out with their decisions or at least let them know what they're getting into. </div></div>

    Excellent idea!
