Local company says 2-3 years shelf life. Think I’ll just get a new one and not risk it. Thanks all!

I have a bumble bee stripe that's been in a box for about 12 years. What kind of shelf life do those things have? Should a new one be ordered or would it be ok to put that old one on?

Does anyone have photos of the sail panel board that go under the headliner on a 1970 dart? Also does the headliner get glued to those panel boards? Thanks!

Is there a rear mount/support for a thumbwheel radio for the rallye dash or is it just the two front ones that attach to the dash frame? It’s for a 1970 Dart Swinger. All that weight seems like it would sit on the ashtray below.

Those all look like they would work well. What are they called?

I JB welded new studs in the holes

I'm using the celebrity rotors and calipers. It looks like they modified the kit within the last few years, using the previa rotor which allows it to work with the smaller dog dish rims in addition to the rallye wheels.

I'll probably get disc master cylinder and disc proportioning valve. You can alternatively use an adjustable valve in line going to the rear cylinders - so I have read.

I have been in the process of installing the scarebird kit on my '70 dart swinger and am not sure which side of the spindle the caliper is supposed to go on. The old instruction sheet I got (which was from 2007) says for the 10 inch drum set up that the caliper opening is supposed to face the...
