The woodgrain is always cracked, and while I have one that's not cracked, it's very discolored. So the hu...

On a 65/66, between the full deluxe pad (reaches the base of the windshield) and the base (reaches just to the speaker grille), what if any differences are there in mounting? Will the full pad simply fit over the metal portion of the base dash? Or is that portion missing from the deluxe dash? Any thought...

Is there a trick to removing a 65 B Heaterbox without removing the fender, or pulling open the wheel tub? I'd heard somewhere of people drilling out the 2 impossible box bolts from the interior side. Is this a viable method? Mark

So I always suspected the speedometer showed way too low on my car. This afternoon I confirmed it now that I have a tach. I measured the circumference on my tire by rolling the car on flat ground and did the calculation. Because I know my gear ratio it was easy to figure out and I double checked this with the...

I'll post some pics o...
