Interior paint codes
Its a 1964 Daytonna blue with blue interior. Trim code is 732-1 which I think is medium blue. I need a paint code number for the paint store to make up a batch of interior paint. The number 732 doesn't work. Anyone has a good number or know where I can find it. Thanks in advance. Peter

EM windshield wiper motors ?
What is the difference between a 1962 and 1964 wiper motor? I see them listed separate from each other. Why are they not interchangeable? Thanks

Re: Camshaft options
Dude, you will be awfully disappointed when you find out you cant run down those piss pot punks grandmothers in their 89 corolla. Much less their 240xs turbo four banger ricers. You better stay on the porch.

Re: A way to pass cylinder heads over pistons?
You can try using a 4 inch ideal clamp/worm gear clamp. I used them to install motorcycle cylinders on pistons before. Good luck

Re: Are the original exhaust manifold gaskets made of asbestos?
I just removed mine a few days ago and my first thought was asbestos. I wasn't sure so I treated it as such. I soaked it with water to keep from making dust. Be safe.

Re: Horns
Drill out the factory rivets and separate the parts and clean every electrical contact point. Pop rivet it back together after. Nothing to it and nothing to lose. Horns don't really go bad. If you buy new ones throw the old ones away to me. LOL
