I've got a few keys, among other things....

Kinda' like my CV joints, where they deleted every-other bolt, and installed locating pins, so each CV is bolted in with only half the stock number of bolts. Guess when you're scrambling for repairs, every little thing that saves time is critical. Then again, it's probably justifiable only if you'r...

I want to put a CC kit on mine as well, but as you mentioned bigger fish to fry right now. I'm not looking forward to the drive to Carlisle with this one and no CC. On any other car I have owned, I use the CC even while going on surface streets just to keep it steady. 9hrs to Carlisle is going to be...

heat sink compound for sure!

It was, and I can't remember who used to post them all the time. I may even still have some of them in one of my e-mail backups. It might even be in the IMON archives, wherever that is these days...

Correct, that is what I recall....

I believe this used to be an actual thing a while back on the mailing lists...

My opinion of those which you posted in the link, they're junk....Seems like a poor attempt at a band-aid. .
If you're looking for some nice hoes, check with Mike at MerkurDepot, he has put a lot of effort into getting silicone hoes made for our application.
They're pretty nice!

Sheesh, need to get that water out ASAMFP.
Carpet is trashed, I got a good one if you're looking.

I'd say, one with no rust! All of the other things mentioned can be had.

Sold!

Caps on the wheels ! two of them. Couple of nights spraying wd-40 and trying and trying ! Perhaps it may be the wrong key. I do have one cap off the wheel that works wonders with the key on. They're all the same key. Meaning I could steal yours with my key, and I don't even know where you are... :)...

Dejavu in 2020. I got a 88XR this weekend. The car was parked 5 years.So 2 front wheels locks dont budge. I found a third cap laying inside the car that works wonders with the key I have. Sprayed WD-40 as hell and praying !!!! Are the locks and caps off the wheels? I had a few extras here, just las...

I've got a good set of these wheels, with keys and locks.
If anyone is looking, let me know.
They've also got good tires on them...

Yes sir! I also have a couple of wheel sets, a 15" mesh style set with caps and locks and a Escort Cosworth 16" with caps (imported from the UK).
Also a rare set of manual window brackets/tracks/rails, ideal for weight reduction. I'm sure there are some more parts in the attic!

message sent!

I called to check it out last weekend since I didn't get an email or phone call.
The guy who answered looked me up and said yes, I was moved.
I guess we're good.
