Re: CLAMPS
Tom, quick note on gun bluing, being a tournament Skeet Shooter for the last 25 years and a having a few premium grade shotguns, I can tell you bluing won't hold up under the hood of a car. Take a look at Restoration Supply Company, they sell a black oxide kit that appears to be pretty easy to use a...

If there is rain in the morning we may push back the first tech session until more people arrive. I now have 65 cars registered, I even have a 1929 Isotta Fraschini ...

Re: CLAMPS
Tom, check out the Daytona Registry, they have a section on authenticity that's pretty good and it shows those clamps.

Re: Battery
Zac, I've used Antique Auto Batteries for a couple of years now with great results. The embossed rubber stickers sound like a good idea and yes an embossed SAFA sticker would be excellent.

Re: Battery
I've looked into to the time line of tar topped batteries in the past, it appears that Delco chanaged from tar topped to hard rubber sealed and cased batteries in 1967. That was the first Delco Energizer, as far as I can tell that's when everyone else switched. No one was rebuilding batteries by the...

Re: Coolant in oil?
David, before you replace anything, do some diagnosis, pressure test the cooling system and see if the pressure drops off quickly, if you can remove the timing chain cover on the left just above the water pump, as you pressure test the system see if there is any evidence of coolant leaks behind the ...

Re: Factory build sheets
Graham, outside of the Classiche Program contact Marcel Massini, marcel@massini.cc. Marcel probably has the most information on individual cars other than factory.

Re: Fat Steering Wheel
Tom, here goes! I have both a very original Nardi wheel on my 330 GT and I also have a 365 2+2 in the shop.
