    Where to get stripes?

    Have any of you purchased vinyl stripes? From where? I just got a gt-350 hood and need to paint it. I don't like the current metallic green stripes and want to get a price to compare to painting them on. I would like to get a metallic blue or silver. Maybe the new shelby stripes?

    anyone have pics of r-model inst. panel

    AOD solenoid switch?

    Anyone out there have their switch mounted in a discrete place? I want to put it some where that I can reach with my belts on but doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. The best place I can think of is drilling into the front face of my hump-hugger below the cup holder. Any thoughts?

    What fluid for rear axle?

    I have a 65 fastback with a 9" Versailles rear end. Does anyone know how much fluid I'll need? Also, what weight? I'm leaning twards Redline or Amsoil as I have friends that sell both. Thanks Eric
