Yep curb feelers on both sides Dan. Still going with the new care plus one year as what someone would do a year after buying it. The pic only shows one on the drivers side, as one fell off, I have it but did not put it on in time for this event. I did have a young kid ask me at a stop light last year why I had radio antenna's on wheel wells...
Matthew, You can come over any time to help put the 300E intake on. Can't wait till that happens...Hopefully this month to do so. We have the big Mopar car show (Mopars at Thunder Mountain) at Bandimere speedway on the 5th of June, so I am shooting for that date.
I wish the Turquoise paint would show better in the pictures as it just shows that it is blue in color...Oh well!

OMG Matthew! I hope you are coming to stay with me... We can duct-tape a couple of cardboard fins on the Hyundai Accent, with Faulkner up on stands.
If you are going, lemme know and I will scramble to find a couple of rooms - I was only planning to go for the day, without taking Faulkner. I'm hoping to score a discount on a gas tank from Vans Auto. (Unfortunately, Eastwood is not going to be there, so I may make a run to Pottstown to stack up on rattle cans.)
And here they are... check the corrosionextra work cleaning requiredmisplaced gaskets and morebroken out throttle plate screwsgetting there, finallystripped air cleanermy helper, passed out
We robbed three different parts carburetors to complete this project. If you save these pictures and hover over them and magnify the problem areas, it might surprise you we were able to save everything. I was very lucky, the corrosion damage wasn't any worse.
The round Air Cleaners are a set of Marine spark arrestor style that came with the Carb, Rick Clapham happened to have one of the original Metal oval air cleaners for this 300E set up for me. So I am looking for qty 1 of a metal OVAL air cleaner to complete the set.
Sooooooo, everyone take a look in your garage and see if you have one that you are not planning to use so I can buy it from ya! or when you are at Swap meets in your area!
