I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to help me locate the correct Beige houndstooth fabric that was used on the 1977-1980 triumph spitfires. I've seen the seat covers that are made by Newton Commercial and the houndstooth fabric is a perfect match. Only thing is the beige vinyl is a very bad match. Please see picture: * home . com cast . net /~reinarson/seat.jpg It...

Hi. I've got a few "antique" fuses from British cars. They might be 30 or 40 years old. They are very like type 3AG glass cartridge fuses, about 6mm dia., but about 2mm shorter at 30mm. They have coloured paper inside them. The ends are flat, not rounded. I say "antique, but they seem to still be used. Folks might just call them car glass fuses. The ones...

Howdy, I confess I'm completely new to this NG, so I apologize if I should be looking in a FAQ somewhere for this info. But I find myself needing it rather suddenly. So any help would be greatly appreciated. I suddenly find myself needing to dispose of my father's car. Not the one he drove, the one he hasn't even started up in 35 years, but can't...

My 57 Chevy's been sitting a while and won't start, so I figure the carb needs priming, as it was in fine shape before. Is there a better way than just pouring gas down its throat? I suspect in the many years since I last primed a carburetor that something has come along to improve or make safer the process, either a product or technique. Suggestions? Jim...

THE SAN DIEGO COLLECTION Every month or two I like to stop here on the way home from my usual auto museum duties. It's what I call an automobile consignment shop, although I don't know if that's the correct term. It's in a one story building on El Cajon Blvd at 72nd Street in La Mesa, California. In addition to cars, there are old radios, toys, etc. I've...

ja'ou'are That's how the natives pronounced the name of a sleek spotted cat native to their Amazon region. William Lyons, of Coventry, named a car after that cat. Judging by the phonetic spelling, above, that the explorers brought back (along with some cats), the Brits have it right as far as the pronunciation...

Why does this newsgroup keep getting all these weird, off the wall posts? The latest ones look like somebody used a program to post messages under other user's names. What's up with this? Other google groups I watch never get this kind of crap. MI5 persecution? WTF??? Any suggestions or ideas to stop it? Forrest

Not the Ralph Nader book, it's a coffee table book I saw at Barnes & Noble several years back that I regret not picking up at the time. I don't remember the title or the author, but I do remember that the cover illustration was a picture of a lemon (the kind used to make lemonade) with a steering wheel and wheels stuck on it. Most books on lemons focus on...
