Back to being serious ... this thread is another example of the dilemma we all face as we attempt to restore these cars as accurately as possibly, weighing what's 100% original against what's modern and may be a better solution/application, what's more visible versus what's not so visible.

The real gem in this thread John is being made aware of Fuji nuts in some applications. Thanks to Joris; hope he locates some.

Maybe some guys here with tiny nuts would like to trade for something larger?

Frank, how do I ascertain that I have the smaller nuts?

Joris,

Tiny nuts are easy to spot. Normally installed during production but sometimes they actually get smaller over time. Corrosion or a bossy woman are contributing factors.

Phil,

Not sure if there's a shortage of humor in MI or if the cold has something to do with being over-sensitive but the candy-as, over-reaction to satire and my self deprecating comments is boring. Do you not understand that I was poking fun at myself in this? I can think something is stupid and absurd and join right along in the frivolity.

I would love to know why grown men are so offended by the opinions of others. Please explain why that hurts your feelings so much.

It just got cold in Michigan this past week. It got me a bit crabby for a few days, but I was able to shake it off.

I'm not sure, but i think I'm offended by him being offended by you offending him, us, or them...or are they offended by us offending them? Or did they offend you and me??

At the risk of being offensive...I keep my nuts in an antimagnetic, non-corrosive lead lined sack.

Are the words nuts and sack offensive??

Not to high jack the thread, but what about a walneto?? Is that a left hand thread Fuji??
