speaker city in Vancouver can re-cone your orig speaker 604-736-2077, they can also rebuild it to handle more power if you desire, still keeping the part numbers printed on the magnet, you wouldnt even know it was ever rebuilt. You should see some of the incredible stuff they do, look em up, you'll be glad you did. They do stuff from all over the world

 Electro-Tech in the States is a good vendor.

 Their 66' style speaker is miles better than stock. Why recone?

why recone, oh, orig parts fit usually fit proper, also keeps things date coded and part number correct, even styling of aftermarket products, not just speakers, usualy dont have the same characteristics as OEM, kinda makes a difference when documenting things down the road. Just my opinion now. Im kinda partial to the numbers correct thing

Makes Sense I suppose beau. Even if it will never be seen. And the fact we could support a Canadian Shop can't hurt either.

I was looking in my file pictures for some Pontiac stuff but this one seems to sum up the disease we all suffer from.  Even if they're covered in crap we can't resist 'em.  This old 48 International KB5 was on my great uncle's farm that they were selling out.  My couson told us to come and take a look to see if there was anything we wanted as it was all going to bebulldozed in a pile (You have to imagine this in a fairly thick Ukrainian accent)  So we were poking around one of the many buildings and my borther says, "Ken You've got to see this!  I had never seen so much pigeon crap in my life!  I guess it had sat in that barn for about 20 years.  I had no use for a truck like that whatsoever but it only had 50,000 ,miles on it (all at about 20 Mph) so it kind of followed me home.  I pushed off the bigger piles before we put it on the trailer but I still smile when i remember the trail of pigeon crap and feathers that wafted behind us all the way home. I still chuckle when I think about the guy in the Cadillac that passed us shaking his fist.

Amazingly once we washed off all the crap, the paint and chrome hood ornament wasn't afected at all!

Its still sitting in my yard.  I drove it last about two years ago to town (for a display) with no brakes which was exciting  but I just don't really know what to do with it.
Anybody know where I can find a master cylinder kit for one of these or does somebody really need it more than me?
