Re: New guy on the block with Corvair powered buggy

Those are awesome. I think the Scorpion is really cool looking and with a 140 it should fly.

Re: 1963 4 Door Project Start

The product I recommend for sound deadening is B-Quiet Extreme. Compare favorably to Dynamat at a much better price: http://www.b-quiet.com/extreme.html

Re: new to the forum

Brad, if it's Corvair powered, I promise it will be loved here. Great place to ask questions to make that trike work for you.

Re: A power windows question

I figured out why there is a separate kit for '67. 1967 was the only year that the Camaro had vent windows, like our Corvairs do. I also located a somewhat less expensive kit: http://www.ss396.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=camaro6769&Product_Code=PWK-67CAM&Category_Code=POW...

Jon, hate to go way too far on a limb here, but I'm predicting a black/red color combo is going to carry the day here. :tongue:

Re: Oil leak from above?

Sounds like a leaking top cover gasket, or maybe the oil filter adapter. Not too bad a job once you pull the turkey roaster.

I did a little write up on this project on my web page:

A power windows question

I'm considering power windows for my LM coupe. However, I don't want to do it unless I can replace my window cranks with period power window switches. I'm not willing to live with little plastic covers to hide the shafts for the window cranks. Is there a setup on the market that makes this possible?...

You're really going to town on this. Those rims and tires are some of the best I have seen on an EM. It really looks nice with them.
