Gentlemen,
I purchased a set of AC 43LS spark plugs thinking they would work in my 1955 400. Frankly, it was a chance purchase without prior confirmation. Can one of you provide me with the application details in which these plugs can be used? Thanks Kevin Tucson

Well, it was a very worthwhile project, and even better the price was right and a portion of the sale went to the Packard Proving Grounds, a program that EVERYONE who has an interest in Packard cars and the company that made them should support financially.

Well, I did it--I finally joined the youtube generation and put my first video up. It's a pushbutton actuator I rebuilt for a customer last fall, in final test mode on my test board.

One recent very valuable (to me) PAC project was the reproduction of the Mazda 3003 headlight bulbs. These are the prefocused, triple filament with triple bayonet base and were only used in the 33/34 Cadillacs and Packards. Just prior to the project, the few of these you could find were quoted at $250-$400 EACH, USED, and with no guarantee. That indeed was a very worthwhile club project!

MrPushbutton -
Damned fine job on making those contact fingers - you ought to put a set on eBay and see what they bring. I've soldered everything from plumbing (nothing but copper on the supply side for me) to delicate electronics and even soldered a penny to a gas tank to stop a leak. I'm still using a 27W pencil-tip iron that I got from Radio Shack 35 years ago, plus my dad's old Weller gun for heavier work. Heck, I even have a "soldering copper" that perches on top of a blowtorch (c. 1913), fueled by "white gas". About the only solder job I haven't worked with is autobody filler, but I got a glimpse of the "plastic state" in soldering that penny. So, no problem there for me. Having been back in the auto biz for the past several years, let me tell you that it's quite refreshing to see such attention to detail and reliability. I look forward to hearing more of your work!
