Thanks, I’ll add this to my parts info for future use.

We should have a permanent tech section for this type of info.

Finished the read end and brakes. I installed it in the car this morning. Ready to roll it to the other side of the garage where I can work on it much easier now.

Thanks Greg, yes – yours looks better centered!

Maybe everyone should show their caps to help you make this stencil.
Here’s mine, I don’t think it’s off center?

These TRF filters are not in any ‘schedule’ to replace as they flow so little TRF. The filter it self is actually a fuel filter – where it does filter hundreds of gallons of gas in a year so – yes, they do get replaced in that job. So what are you to do with the second stencil you got in the kit?

And yes Jim, the printing on mine was ‘off center to the right slightly’ as well!

I thought the color was white too Jim, but even a light spray of white from a rattle can proved to be ‘too white’ so I tried a light silver and it looks better. As for the replacement caps, I too am guessing that the dealer would only have plain caps as those were the same as the back up windshield washer bottles. . . . and for that matter…[Read more]

I have one bottle cap with the original lettering, somewhat rusty too. It is hard to tell the color but it looks like white?
I have had several bottles without the lettering. Wonder if the only ones lettered were original to the cars and the dealer sold extras were just black?

looking good Eric!

I finished my last two inspection stamps today. They are not even close to as nice as the originals but they will have to do because I am not very good at it. I could make them better but I would have to get a different style stamper and use yellow ink instead of paint. These are good enough for me. I guess I have seen some really poor stampings…[Read more]

I finished the front suspension and installed it in the car for temporary so that I can roll the car around. I will have the rear end done in the next week or two and install it permanent. I need to roll this to the other side of the garage so that I can work on it better. I have pulled off of this car longer than I planned and starting to get…[Read more]

Very nice! This is something I will have to do. I had one original cap but it was rusted really bad and not really saveable. I ended up letting it go with my last 63 I sold because it was original to that car and the guy asked for it.

TRF bottle lid: Does anyone else here have an original ‘under the hood’ TRF back up bottle with the lid? I have my original with no intention to ‘restore it’ but am pursuing making stencils for anyone else who wants to replicate their own. If you look at these closely it looks like the one we did has slightly bigger print but it in fact it is…[Read more]
