    Thanks Harvey for the wheel refinish. And for tire recommendation.

    Over the weekend I finished going back to twin battery setup. I also made a fuse box shield out of moldable plastic instead of the cardboard original type.

    Finally, someone puts 215 Avon's on a long wheelbase car! Looks great Clarke. How much spacer are you using in the rear? Any concerns about the tire rubbing the backside of the fender?

    1/4" spacer was all that was needed to clear the adjustment screw/bolt/nut thingy.
    Doesn't look like it is going to rub fender. Yet. Maybe. Hmmmm. I would like car a bit lower in rear...
    Replacing the oem 2.4 with 3.2 in June, expect extra weight to settle rear more, then we'll know.

    I bought some 1/8 thick heat moldable plastic at Tandy leather. It is used to make holsters. Did the rough cutouts with a dremel and used a heat gun, to shape it over a coffee tin. Detailed the cutouts once in place, sanded and used some silver spray paint to match original. I guess I could do the little square cutout to match the original exactly. This should hold up much better than the cardboard version.
