Tried to PM you but your box is full.  I'd like to handle the wiper motor and assembly  restoration if you still need that.   I've done several with the Eastwood  4 step gold cast paint system.   I'll repay the shipping to get it here also.   PM me and I'll send you my address.

Two items for today. the web address www.charityamx.com was owned by John Wideker. He graciously published it today as a direct link to matts old cars site. So now we just have to say go to charityamx.com and you'll get right to the home page. Thanks for doing this.

I also began the process of registering the project as a non profit tax exempt organization. I should actually have some of the stuff on this tomorrow as the IRS was very helpful. This would help businesses donate items as they would have a tax number to write it off.

Lastly, I think the car should have a name. Cars and Parts magazine did a few restorations and and the cars all had names. What do you think? I've been calling it a "she" but do not know what gender it is.

Yes, the cruise is in Halifax, MA at Walmarts. One thing we hope to do is interest some shops in fixing just a section of the car-such as just the rocker, just the quarter. We are still going to paint it and fix all the panels off the car but our schedule is still ambitious enough to try to get this done by January.

More to come-thanks for the donations so far. Everything helps.

Sorry for the double post here but:
 
I have a couple of odds and ends. What size S clips are needed? I have 3 for 5/16" lines (I also have a couple of C clips for the same size lines). I also have a mess of hardware left over from the heater box rebuild on my American: speed nuts (zinc plated with 3/4" flange), keps nuts, star washers (they have both internal and external teeth), lock washers, nuts, and #6-32 and #8-32 Type F (head like a wood screw) thread cutting screws. The hardware is all zinc finish except the S clips (those are either green or black).
 
I also have a blower motor mounting plate and mounting plate to heater box gasket that I'm not going to use. Those are the ones that REM makes (I got them from Kennedy American).
 
Detroit Muscle Technologies should have most of the foam for the heater box (they have all of the heater core stuff for sure, I don't know how different the air door foam is) but the 66-69 American kit is the only one listed right now.
