Re: project pacific wonder
just need to prime the oil.....anyone know if you have to use a "priming tool" or is there a simple attachment you can make or pick up at a local hardware store
also ive been running primer on the fenders for about 5 years....finally threw on some rattle-can chassis black

Re: project pacific wonder
Chuck....I've seen folks use an old distributor for a oil primer....just remove the brass gear and spin with a drill

Re: project pacific wonder
A long cheap flat head screw driver with the handle removed, in a drill would work.

Re: project pacific wonder
Hey bud, can you provide any pics of the clearance lights install? Or can you describe how you ran the lights from the roof...down? Thanks in advance.
by the way, the Burb looks awesome! |

Re: project pacific wonder
i also picked up a nice lockable fuel cap
its supposed to fit 38-63gmc truck, 38-52full size car, and 53-54 wagons looks like it should fit. if not i will most likely be adapting my fuel neck. what do you think?
