    My license plate resto

    The black plates on California classics are always just the sweetest little bit of icing on the cake. I've seen plenty of older California cars with the new white plates and it's just not the same. :glasses7: Can't wait to see how these turn out.

    Windshield washer reservoir - power vs pump

    Thanks all for the input. I suppose it makes sense to check out what you have before buying something. I was just so used to seeing completely destroyed washer reservoirs in the junkyard that I jumped at the first one that was in decent condition!

    Windshield washer reservoir - power vs pump

    Ok, so when I bought my Valiant a while back I did notice that there was no windshield washer reservoir. No big deal. While I was at a junkyard recently looking for something else, I came across a pretty good specimen of a reservoir so I grabbed it - little electric pump, wires, and all. I...

    painting engine bay

    I believe Automotivetouchup.com has spray-can clear. It's not the single-stage spraycan stuff you originally asked about, but if you are still interested in rattle-canning it then you could find your color (in a can) and then hit it with clear (in separate can). I used it on my Dakota's sideview...

    Paint inside cowl.

    My 2 cents: give the mice some tiny paintbrushes and put them to work. They've been getting a free ride in there too long.

    Generic sound deadener

    Something to consider: some of the new thinking in car audio/sound deadening is that you don't need to cover every square inch with the 'mat' material (aka dynamat, fatmat, etc). It's best quality is dampening sheet metal vibrations. These are most common in the middle of large panels of metal...

    Generic sound deadener

    In the ebay ad it says "black compound" base.......I could be wrong, but I believe this is their nice way of saying 'asphalt' base. The butyl-based products (Dynamat, Secondskin, RaamMmat) have a greater resistance to heat than the asphalt-based products. Just something to keep in mind. The...

    Sound deadning reviews

    By the way, if you've got some time to kill (who doesn't?) you might want to check out this particular forum: www.diyma.com It's a diy car audio-based forum. There's a ton of discussion regarding this particular subject. It's obviously an audio-based forum, however the ultimate goal is the...

    Sound deadning reviews

    I'd recommend staying away from any asphalt-based deadening products, especially if you live anywhere where it gets halfway hot during the summer. They are usually attractive because they are typically less expensive. You'll pay a little more, but the butyl-based products are where it's at...
