    Need help naming and replacing this part

    great. So I own a 66. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? any maintenance that can be done?, or is it just a case of a 50 year old piece of nylon drying out and getting brittle?

    Question about the differentail. If it ain't broke don't fix it?

    Great analysis, Dave. Quite logical. Yes, the car stayed in a garage for nearly three decades, undriven. But in Wisconsin...as in butt-*** cold. While that may exclude the issue of rust, the sheer amount of time sitting surely would degrade any dino-oil. Do you guys have a favorite for this...

    My new old Jet Age 300

    Hey thanks , man. I appreciate that. I really don't know anything about these cars, except that I like the way they look, and what they represent. My dad usually had import cars. Vw's, Jaguar, Triumph,BMW... so that's what I grew up with. They're nice, but there's no "glory."
