    Trim hole sealing.

    If you are going to recess the holes slightly, use Duraglass or Alumalead. They apply like a filler but are very hard and withstand moisture. Just enough to fill the recess, then use regular filler to finish and feather. Any place you can access, clean up most of what pushes through, clean...

    So..... all these years .

    I am a long time Mopar guy, but I found myself with a question I did not have an answer to today. The grille of my 67 Valiant, Stainless or aluminum?? I am leaning to the latter, but the metal determines how I begin to restore to "like new" Thanks in advance,

    DO NOT USE "OFF GRID ENGINEERING" or "SRS COACHWORKS"

    Sad stuff, but it happens everyday. I owened a classic/muscle car resto shop in Fl in the mid 80's and I went to great lengths to satisfy ever customer. Yes I subbed a lot of stuff out be sure, and yes sometimes I lost money, but I never lost a customer. I sold it to keep my then new ex from...

    Which is better - 90 octane no ethanol or 93 octane 10% ethanol

    Non ethanol is refered to in the industry as "recreational" gas. Started out to be used at marinas, and was very costly. I was told by the Marathon rep that it cost more to add the ethanol, then he told me it cost more to leave it out for the rec fuel. Go figure huh. Any hoo, it is a good...
