Uploading a short driving video to YouTube would only help with a sale, $16K is a killer deal

Please join me in congratulating Mr. Desert Sasquatch on his acting debut. .

The only credit I can take is buying a nice car when I see one and getting her Spic & Clean before the show. The credit goes to Jon and Edward and The Mae House for restoring her. https://maehouse.org/garage/ .

Had a very good day at the Hearts & Homes for Veterans Car Show in Cape Coral, FL Did not get called for a trophy in my class but stuck around for all the other classes, and to my shock and surprise my 63 Chevy II SS, Convertible took “Overall Best Of Show”

The transmission is a 2sp Powerglide console on the floor.

I’m in Naples Florida currently but will be heading back to Arizona in a few year, so my justification was I need something with Air Conditioning.

Just picked up another toy that will get in the way of time that could be spent on build 392.

I was able to get it out by drilling a small hole down the center and then used a spiral screw extractor. Followed up by Combination Drill and Taps Bit.

Yes, when i posted my comment I thought he was purchasing something from DKKITCAR

This might be an option, will try tomorrow

Maybe 1/4”

This is the kit I was using click ABN Metric and SAE Standard Tap and Die I hate at my age making rookie mistakes, should have used oil and turns in out, in and out, and in and out. Instead of just in slowly and firmly, until it snapped.

Maybe this one, or is there something better...

Was trying to use I guess a tap to clean out the threads of the headlight mounting thread and this snapped off. Size 3/8 X 16 So I guess I now need to drill it out and re-thread it. Can anyone direct me to best product on Amazon to accomplish it? Did it snap because I did not use a lubricant?
