Looks great, Brant!    I can't tell from the pics but is it safe to assume the pinch weld gets painted black?

pm sent.

How about a little 'in car video' to get us juiced up

"Inquire for Price" the ad says.

Steve, I think you mean head 'restraint'?    Something to minimize whiplash in the event of being rear ended.

Aha!  That's it!   Thanks!

Either on V1 forum, or this one, there is a guy with, I think, a '68 and, I think, a KR, who won numerous awards over several
years and then decided to start driving it.    He made a really cool video taken mostly from a drone, of him driving down a
lonely road.    Can anyone link me to this video?

I have a pic of 6S2268, original owner car (per the placard) and CA plate shows UAL 854.     Picture came from Brant, so you might have
this info already.  Hope this helps.

I don't have instagram, not even facebook. But, love classic rock. Can you post a video??

+1 here.   Would love to see them.

It could have won in the 'Occasional Driver' class where only cleanliness, workmanship and fit and finish count.

Thanks, I'll try that.   I also understand there's a difference in specific gravity.   I no longer own a battery tester with specific gravity
numbers on it but I'm going to look for one this weekend.

Stan, it's fairly clear, in color.    I can try to contact the previous owner/ shop.   That may be my best bet at this point.
Thanks!

The Bosch battery will also have the lip.   Found at Pep Boys, maybe other places, too.

I'd like to flush the braking system on 2249 just as preventive maintenance thing,  but I don't know what kind of brake fluid is in it now.     
I pulled a bit out and put it on a painted piece of metal and after several hours, no paint was peeling  up.   This tells me it MIGHT be
silicone, so I'm just wondering,  is there a better litmus test for brake fluid or have I just done it?
