    SF97 from GL

    Engine stop cable

    Has anyone else noticed that the new engine stop cables are a bit longer than the old ones? I installed a new stop cable and it has interference with one of the cowl bulkhead supports. I will need to dremel a cut in the support to allow the cable to sit perpendicular to the dash. Warren

    Instrument panel completed

    Here is a photo of my instrument panel. I had already painted it once and installed the gauges. My friend was painting his car at my garage and left it open and got overspray on my new gauges and panel. So apart it came and I had to polish the lenses. What a bitch that was. Warren

    Blue dash/instrumnet lights FYI

    I just installed the blue instrument lights. For the high beam, I took the wire cutters and carefully removed the outer brass cover. It is lightly folded over the bottom of the lens. Man that lens was in perfect condition! Now I have a full blue lens...not just a dot. Warren

    So how many of you are running with the third axle disconnected? And does it make that much of a difference in turning? Better fuel economy? What else are the advantages? The reason I'm asking is this seems to be a mod for city driving. Thats where my deuce will most likely spend it's time...

    1972 Am General M35A2 w/ winch

    Here is what I thought was a good price. The truck ran great and I drove it 200 miles home...without license plates. It has 14000 miles on it and looked to have only one coat of paint over the original OD. I am restoring her from the inside out. I got tired of looking at faded scratched paint...
