A clean, simple return spring for the brake pedal, incorporating the brake light [...] A unique method of running the front brake lines on a solid axle ‘32 [...] Wiring I was driving along the other day, noticing the sunlight and the glory of the morning, when I saw some sort of electrical box attached to a telephone pole at the side of the road. If you were me, you would have thought “hey that’s a great place to put my camera and take a [...] Transmission Cooler Lines The next addition to the a/c line clamp/ tranny cooler lines/ wire cover is making a tranny cooler return line.
