Hi All:
During my attempt to find the correct ram paint, I did contact Tower.
They
said they did not make paint that was specifically heat resistant, as one
would want (presumably) for engines. Perhaps someone else would want to
contact them again. 300ly, Gil

Subject: Wayne Graefen Medical Update
For those of you following Wayne Graefen's medical condition I can offer
the following as I'm in ongoing phone contact with he and Chris:
Wayne is now in Rochester, Minn. at the Mayo Clinic and surgery was
performed on his right leg Tuesday the 17th. This was a procedure where
two pieces of a cadaver bone were attached to his existing bone and three
stainless cables were used to hold it all together. This was done as the
original surgery done earlier this year after his break has not gone well
and the bones are not mending.
The surgeon has told him there is a 70 to 80% success rate with this
procedure. If by chance this does not make everything heal up the next
option is to remove the hip, femur and knee and replace all with stainless
steel. Doesn't sound like much fun to me.
Wayne's spirits are good and he hopes to be returning home to Kerrville,
Texas in a few days. They will be driving so he is not sure exactly how
long it will take as he doesn't know how long he will be able to ride per
day. He ask that you do not send e-mail to him as he will be bombarded
with existing messages already there. Once he is home he will advise all
of you. Also he ask for your support and prayers through this ongoing
process.
Peace and Happy Holidays to all,
John Lazenby

Subject: Re: Chrysler Turquoise
Folks:
Got two cans of the Plasti-Kote #210 today (allegedly the last two the
distributor in
Massachusetts had). I can ask about having duplicates made by El-Mar
paints
in Haverhill, MA (they will put it in spray cans), but I know someone
indicated
that there is not necessarily consistency between cans of the Plasti Kote
itself. Also, the paint would not be heat resistant, but perhaps this
would
OK for cooler running Wedges (the Plasti Kote can says good to 500 degrees
-
I don't know what regular enamel would be good to, but I would think it
would be near that ). The biggest problem area would probably be the heat
crossovers on the 4 barrel manifolds and in-line quad manifolds.
Maybe Tower would be the better way to go (more of a mass-producer than
the
paint shop near me). This would be especially true if there is a "Holy
Grail
Sample" of original Chrysler Turquoise that someone has to give to them
for
duplication purposes.
Thanks for all the help, BTW!!!
Keith

Subject: What is a good rubber preservative?
Hello all, I've asked this before, but got no responses. What is a good
chemical to use to keep my "rim blow" horn rubber soft? This is a good
used
one that i got recently. My old one was hard and cracked into pieces.
I'd
hate for this to happen again. I know that using Armor-All is out of the
question.
Thanks in advance, john

Subject: identifying Sure-Grip vs Non-Sure Grip rear ends
Hi all-
I have a complete rear end assembly from a '64 C-body. I would like to
identify whether it's a Sure-Grip limited slip or not. I was told locally
that the 'pumpkin' has a distinctive shape on the Sure-Grip type.
Also, is there an external marking that will tell me what the ratio is, or
do I just count the number of input vs output turns with both wheels off
the ground?
Thanks,
John Spiers

Subject: 300 K 4 speed
Folks:
I don't know if any among us have this car (since I have no clue as to the
VIN), but I have personal familiarity with a black 300K 4speed that was on
Long Island, NY in the late1960's. I bought the dual point from the owner
who had replaced it w/ an Accel unit. Although I never saw the original
interior (it was replaced w/ white diamond tuft by 1969 or so), I think it
was a white vinyl interiored car when delivered new. The owner of the car
owned a Chevron Station in Greenlawn, NY and it was definitely a car that,
even in those days, was a head turner (especially when it went down
Jericho
Turnpike and you expected it to shift automatically and then you heard
otherwise...that was my first encounter with it).
If anyone has this car, I can give you more info on it...I think it was
one
of those vehicles that may have survived, given it's uniqueness and the
attention it received in the late 60's and early 70's...And then again,
may
be overly optimistic!
Keith

Subject: Re: identifying Sure-Grip vs Non-Sure Grip rear ends
The external appearance of a sure-grip rear end is identical to a regular
one. There may be a tag on one of the studs that attach it to the housing
that lists the ratio, or "use limited slip lube only". If you turn one
axle,
the other should turn in the same direction if it's sure-grip equipped.
The
most accurate way to tell ratio would be to remove the chuck, it's stamped
on the ring gear.
300ly,
Don

For those of you following Wayne Graefen's medical condition I can
offer the following as I'm in ongoing phone contact with he and
Chris:
Wayne is now in Rochester, Minn. at the Mayo Clinic and surgery was
performed on his right leg Tuesday the 17th. This was a procedure
where two pieces of a cadaver bone were attached to his existing bone

The surgeon has told him there is a 70 to 80% success rate with this
procedure. If by chance this does not make everything heal up the
next option is to remove the hip, femur and knee and replace all with
stainless steel. Doesn't sound like much fun to me.
Wayne's spirits are good and he hopes to be returning home to
Kerrville, Texas in a few days. They will be driving so he is
not sure exactly how long it will take as he doesn't know how long
he will be able to ride per day. He ask that you do not send
e-mail to him as he will be bombarded with existing messages
already there.
Once he is home he will advise all of you. Also he ask for your
support and prayers through this ongoing process.
Peace and Happy Holidays to all,
