The NOS ones burn out quick is probably why it's hard to sell. It's like a NOS car radio, they usually fail immediately after use as well. They make repos that are brighter, look identical and...

I had a set of slightly damaged RAV heads but they were stolen from Louisville KY in 1984, along with all my GTO parts. I wonder who ended up with those? I traded a RAIV engine to get them.

What about welding on a hood?

I'm not a welder nor do I have the supplies, so at the moment, this would be done by a professional. Having said that, is welding on a hood safe, or will it buckle the metal? This old hood seems to...

If your seat rails are painted and look good, you could mount them over the carpet. It's a personal opinion thing though, but I like them that way, no cuts in carpet.

Thanks for looking into this. I just found a '67 factory AM/FM radio in my old stash of parts, with some other goodies too. Now I need to decide whether to upgrade that or go this route.
