Wow. Really? Just crazy.

I should try to make those. I have a process that can duplicate those exactly.

I really haven't looked at these before since I wasn't restoring a CHP car but I can see that there have been quite a few people that are doing them. I would need dimensions but I think this could work with a process I use for Kevlar and Graphite. A little experimentation and I can tell you if it would work. Anybody know what specifically they were made of? I see aluminum for the vehicle mount and it looks like .050 fibreglas matting for the insulator.

I have the correct phenolic (sp?) material, and can cut the proper shape/size using my band saw. My problem is that I lost my drill press.
http://garagejournal.com/forum/pictu...pictureid=7862 It's not that I can no longer find it, but that it found a new home. It was an old Delta floor-standing drill press that my Brother-In-Law gave me 5 years ago. Well, he died in 2008, and his sons missed out on getting a lot of his old tools. My nephew who will be installing the fresh 5.0L in my SSP ended up getting his dad's old drill press back. So it definitely found a more deserving home. But I now need to figure out how to drill a straight hole through the clips. Maybe Santa will bring me a new drill press? |
Let me know as I have a drill press if you need the assistance.

been away for a couple of days. this Ebay auction was good for me as I laughed uncontrollably for about 5 minutes when I saw that someone is actually bidding 62.00 for this .25 cent part.
Easily made material can still be bought cheaply the bracket is a piece of aluminum strap bent to fit the contour of the vehicle. Bill I have a drill press. You cut them out, I will drill them and then you can give them away. |

For someone who is looking for this stuff and has been looking for items for a long time, they will pay whatever to get it. It is kinda like '72 Trans Ams. People will pay a bunch for a rusted shell if its the real deal. |
