This one's for Dan. I talked to this guy in the supermarket parking lot, then noticed his hat. It's a Civil War interest group, but I just had to send you a photo of the hat!

Real businesses have websites!

Blaroche, thank you for posting all this. It's fun to read the saga of your bringing the car back to life. You do in a week what it takes me several years to accomplish! Where are you? In one of your posts you say you're close to Jack Rosen. The car has Texas plates. What part of the country do you ...

Papawayne, RR's speechwriting team included Peggy Noonan, who wrote several books about him. Traditionally, S/Ws stayed in the background. She was really the first to have a public profile.

"All the way with LBJ" was a good campaign slogan. That of his opponent (Barry Goldwater) was "In your heart, you know he's right."

Congratulations, and good luck! Please send the VIN to www.thelincolnregistry.com if you haven't already. Also, you mention some plans for the A/C system. Are you planning to keep it R-12 or convert it to R-134a?

McPherson College is 3 hours west of KC. Some of their graduates stayed nearby after graduation, so if you want to stay local, that's worth exploring.

Going back to Lee and Dan's comments on R-12, I checked eBay and didn't see any cans of it for sale, only the "Enviro-safe" substitute. It wasn't more than a few years ago that it was readily available on that site, NOS by DuPont and others, running about $35 per can. Did its availability ...

Hard to find the exact match in a new/repro. I finally just had my old one sandblasted and powder-coated for my 1966 'vert. Here's a photo of one I ordered and the original. The correct battery (Group 29) didn't fit on the repro. 29s are also hard to find and many people use Group 27s, which may fit.

Aha! Okay, thanks.

I tried that, thanks, but only saw the landing page.

It's a shame we didn't get some advance warning about Automotive Mileposts. I would have liked to print out the pages with options prices, etc for certain year Lincolns.

Mike, perhaps look at this not as what you can get out of it (for free) but what you can contribute to it to support the Lincoln community. That said, what people get out of it is that if they're thinking of buying a car, they can see if it has any history on the site. When people ask "how many...

Steele was kind enough to send me a sample pack of their universal beltline sweeps. The package is marked "specialty seals -- great for auto glass beltline." There are 12 different samples and tomorrow I'll spend some time in the garage trying to figure out which one is a match for my 1966...
