Cool Jon, bet it was thrilling to hear it run again after all that time. Marty

Bump, anyone interested. I thought if we had a good group I would talk with Donald Farr about a article. Marty

Here is a pic of a sealed scoop.

Do not forget the clear RTV seal around them when you are finished. Marty

What is the easiest is to just use the 69 seat back. The 68 cover work just fine on them. Marty

A picture would be very helpful. Marty

Hey Mike I would love to be there. I wonder if Scotty would beam me up and back down there? Marty

That must be a regional show no national shows there. There is a national show in Loveland CO. in July and one in Columbus OH. in September. Marty

Steve is right, I am pretty sure if you prime it will start up. I usually start with 4 gallons to also check the gage. It should read 1/4. We have also jacked up the back to get the tank higher than the front to help get the gas to the pump. Marty

I agree completely with the grounding but if just changing to a original fixes the problem it most likely was not a grounding. I have two beautiful NPD reproductions that I would be happy to send to some one who thinks that they are great. Marty

Often the after market ones do not read correctly. This can be due to a rod that is improperly bent, a float leaking or the omens not correct. If it is a original sender I would first check if the float is leaking then check the resistance, it should range from 6.5 to 10 omens across the range...

I believe that most of the reproductions are made by the same manufacturer. I have had three or four bad ones. And have gone to restoring working originals. A forty two year old one works better than a brand new one, go figure. Marty

They should be semi gloss black.

IMHO they actually were a blue grey color originally. Here is a picture of a original and the ones restored for the HCS. Marty

Some times those rusted sockets can be saved by soaking them in Evaporust then after drying lubricating them. Marty

It would not hurt. I use a gun cleaning kit to clean the connectors, I think that is more important. Marty

I would buy a replacement apron and only use what you need of it to make a good repair. Marty

I did not get to judge it this time but have in the past and it is a very nice car. Congrats Russ. Marty

Very nice, I really like the color with the black accents. Do each part as if a judge will hold it in his hands and you will most pleased with the results. Marty

Arlie I may be interested, any idea of what the logo would look like? I would truly love to have one of these tee shirts. I bet you can guess who the model is. Marty
