tim,

pretty much gets down to money,,, the state is coming out with retro plates this summer,

i can buy used plates, and use them, but not the ones that where on car, its nuts,

i am going to email the director one more time, if she does nothing, going to media,,

in all this no law, was brought up, my state senator office won't do anything ,,for me,, only,,,,they want more people to complain,,,,

up date, i have title,

but,,,,,,my plates were not but on title,,,went back to DMV,ca, person, said i can't use them, need to paint them,,what,

emailed the director of dmv,,,i got a reply from a supervisor,,

now, i need to get proof that plates were on car,,,this is such bull, i may end up in court, the plates were on the car when vin was confirmed.......by a cop,,,,,,,

what i understand on STD trans, they were stude trans, borg warner.

for the lark and trucks they used that trans, looks like stude kept making bell housings,, maybe ultra problems,

people were putting in the std trans,

i thought automakers had to make parts for 10 years, packard ended 56, so 65 would be the end, thats about the time stude ended

thanks, craig,

nice job on your brake set up,

they could of capped the oil gallery,s, and tried a 1/16th and 1/8 inch hole in cap to see what worked, i think the shop plugged henrys, of coarse he removed them,

ford or chev, maybe chry, do plug the oil galley lines

what's the reason for the up dated plate, ?

this off my 56 400,
