Oops, by the way, the Wax & Dry is so easy; spray on after a wash & dry and buff it off. Worked 4 me !!

My 50 Ford 6 cyl. had a hand throttle. Pull a handle out and it would stay at that speed on flat land. By the way los_control, that flathead 6...
Go after it !!! It's going to be very cool !! I'm watching ......:)
I'm probably WAY OFF here, but didn't Stutz build a vehicle like that ???

THANKS !!!! Thank you 57Joe and John, HAMBERS come through again!!!
A place called King of Dice had some that were like originals & fit under my 52 Vicky skirts. That was 8 years ago.....google it.
Friend of mine just got a 55 Olds Super 88 & wants to put duals on it. Is anybody making headers for these cars ? Dual exhaust manifolds ?...
