Ruben, I sent you a text message this morning. Jeff

I'm in! Of course Collin will wouldn't miss it ether. September works for me like last round. Possibly make it a weekend trip?

Funny, the owner is Mystic Man! The phone number listed will find him here; http://www.reverbnation.com/mysticmanlakay

Working on some mockup on the used Hella electric vacuum pump and the updraft oriented K&N air cleaner. I'm satisfied with the vacuum pump location and have the control valve, wiring and vacuum hose to run to the opposite side of the engine compartment. That will be easy. The air filter location and remaining assembly I haven't completed yet, but have plenty of spare parts to configure anyway I come up with. Whats here is 3" parts reducing to 2 1/2" and finally the turbo inlet at 2 1/4" inches. The K&N filter is inverted behind the headlight assembly. Feel free to share ideas, were keeping costs to a minimum here LOL

Andre, I've had a good experience with Alex on a transaction before. Even with shipping I saved on a few parts. I would have to think about it for a bit on how to properly support your car in those conditions in order to remove the entire components of the rear assembly. coming from back ground with heavy equipment, we referred to temporary supports being dunnage. The floor tubs are not suitable for direct loading so coming up with a cradle if you will that is supported with dunnage would be a direction I would look at.

KB, typo. Can you delete my failed attempts of adding cars to my garage, I seem to have a few.

I can upload another photo as long as it doesn't exceed 500MB. I was trying several attempts to up load a photo in different formats and sizes to get it down to or under this size.

I like the recommendation you gave on the new fabricated 1-piece version lugs. They look and function fine on my car. I'm going to copy the list you posted for bushings you ordered from Alex and get them for Collin's car. It's well past due with all the thuds you can hear and feel being emitted from the back of the car.

Thanks Rabin! Left you a note with my donation

Any info on this 1966 sedan with vin number; 5288429 ?

Hugh, sounds like your heading to Ca. to pickup two 505's from James in Red Bluff. Would like to possible meet you there as I intend to make a trip up to his place as well. Jeff

Great to see you making progress Andre'! I know how life can become so busy that if its not a need at the moment, things like working on a project car don't make the priority list I purchased a few items from Alexandre a couple of months ago. No issues with parts purchased and with fast shipping I will purchase from him again.

Bidding entering unrealistic value

My favorite model and color combo. Wish I were closer, I'd bid on it.

Verify the the pinion gear tooth count to be 9, I believe

Well if you wanted to drive it off a cliff, I mean to the central coast, I could send you back via a greyhound with your tires and rims. Just can;t get away that far this time of the year. Someone out there isn't aware of your car that would like it.

I think he's posting via his droid phone, it isn't smart!

1988 wheels with Michelin Primacy MXV4 205/60HR15 tires with 5k. on them from the twin.

H4's

Almost forgot to keep this thread alive! So what's been happening here? A few things, the front seat belts had lost their ability to retract so replacements were given from Thomas to install. There from a series II which have the sea belt clip retained from sliding down the belt and are easier to reach at shoulder level. The car received my wheel and tire package. Late model wheels with Michelin Primacy's MXV4 205/60HR15 These make for a better quality ride and are long lasting! Headlamps have been upgraded to Hella H4 E1 flat lamps with 145/60 watt bulbs. I've had these on a previous 505 for years and make for a vast improvement. Will get some photos posted soon

Rick, you may give Dave a try at Eurocar in Portland. Not sure he is still in existance but worth a look; http://home.teleport.com/~eurocar/ Jeff
