I don't plan on letting it oxidize (IMG:style_emoticons/default/FERG.gif) and I have plenty of Wenol polish if it starts to. I'd rather polish it than clear coat or anodize them

Freshly color sanded and polished. These take lots of fiddling to get adjusted. need to lower the front latch a bit and done on the drivers side.

The tubing is Nylon 6 and a milky white, not clear. It jus looks somewhat clear with fluid in it. Look for it at places like McMaster Carr.
Trying to find a source for the clear plastic lines so I'll only need 6 inches, Then there will be plenty to go around. If I don't find some I may have enough for 3 cars total Sanded and polishing the window channels tonight so I can assemble the doors. Hard to get a good picture but harder getting all the anodizing and scratches out. |

Another week toast with being on call (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) and RRC is looking grim at this point but I'm still trying. Got the upper dash vinyl done and the dash out of the box and on the car. Still need to stretch and glue the leading edge and around the defrost vents.

Andy- Once you figure out the length you will need for your car I will buy an equal length from you, if you are willing to sell some, for my Six. Thanks. Michael I found the Nylon6 tubing for the brake fluid res. and had to buy a 100' roll so I will puts some kits together with the blue hose and start a WTB thread when it gets here for those interested (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) |

here's the link but beware, it may not be complete with all the details but should at least give you your build date and engine number.
