    Hot Rod oil

    "Re-refined" Back in the day that term referred to used oil that was recycled. The term still applies today. Bob

    A source for exterior body moldings...

    Here are the photo's of what the molding looks like at both ends, the width is right on but the length seems wrong. It could be you have the longer door molding. Bob

    Re torqueing heads

    I retired from bucklenusting 10 years ago. Back then you only torqued a cold to the touch head. BTW you only torque a loose fastener, after that, you're checking tightness. I do not use my TW's to loosen, they are not breaker bars.

    Bleeding Brake lines on a 1939 Ford Deluxe

    Old bucklenuster here...I still use my 16oz clear pop bottle when I flush & bleed single-handed with a vacuum bleeder. Fill the bottle with denatured alcohol, (after draining) fill the MC & bottle, turn the bottle upside down in the MC so you can watch the level, do the same with the new fluid...

    Battery Chargers:

    I have MacGyver wires I attach to a 9v battery and then to 'Bertha's 6v to fool the 'smart' in my charger. Just remind me to pull it off quickly. ;) Bob
