Was checking things out very close yesterday afternoon. See that I still need to bleed brakes again, sigh.
Needed a tail pipe clamp, thought about that for awile and bingo, I have one in my tool box.
It is a home made one. looks just like a new one. Came from my 1960 Bugeye that I sold in 1966.
About 1964 I needed a new muffler and my neighbor whose work area was about 15 feet from mine. He was a night welder at one of the Hawaii sugar plantations said heck I can make you one that will never rot out. He did and also threw in some clamps he made at the time as well. He also made a tail pipe out of boiler copper tube for that car.
So Miss Agatha has bits from both of my previous Bugeyes that I just happened to find in my stuff.
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and lots of shinny bits. LOL
