This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so very much! Tom

Anyone have a picture of the bracket (1305-9) for tilt steering? Also the dimensions of the bracket? I am making one for my car as one component to help stabilize the electric steering setup. Thanks for any assistance, Tom

Looks really nice!

My wiper switch on my 63 is not operating and from the looks of it someone has been inside it and really made a mess of things. I have had the wiper motor refurbished so I know it is good. So thinking of my options for a new switch I need to understand the motor. Is this a one speed wiper motor or two speed? I know with the resistor in the stock switch the motor can run at variable speeds. Also the wiring, I have figured out the Purple is 12V power, Blue is Park, Black runs the motor and Yellow runs the motor both at the same speed, the Red wire I am not sure about. Two options for a new switch are: painless performance 80173 (https://www.summitracing.com/parts/prf-80173?seid=srese1&gclid=CjwKCAjwrcKxBhBMEiwAIVF8rF3w6s_hYsAhZzta2WkVzqJMnKrJBIrmyKQXgc3aWIEUEIfbS_lxMxoCugAQAvD_BwE) cole hersee 75601 (https://www.amazon.com/Cole-Hersee-75601-14-BX-Switch-Dyn-Brk/dp/B005E9Z6EW?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=A6AY1HFZHO49U) I am also installing a small electric washer motor for the spray option and hope to adapt the original knob to the new switch. Another thought is to take the switch to a local electric shop and see if they can put new parts inside. Anyone use either of the suggested switches or is there one someone has adapted for use? Thanks for any help, Tom

My car is not on the road yet so not sure about the cooling. Right now I am in the middle of putting In a new wiring harness one wire at a time. Not my favorite job.

Installed my electric fan after doing some fabrication work. The fan is a Spal 30102049 16" High Performance Fan and the brackets are from Vivid Racing (https://www.vividracing.com/-p-151580481.html?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAm4WsBhCiARIsAEJIEzURgwM9W4Sbnl3ywYQ-k7V1u-H5Hlbx_pc9h3pc2_MGnjRKAy9CcgUaApMVEALw_wcB). The brackets are aluminum and had to be cut, bent and welded to fit the upper part of the aluminum radiator. All the hardware to bolt this up is stainless steel and the nuts are all nylon locking so hopefully it will stay together! Took a lot of looking around but this Spal fan clears the engine. I also got the relay kit and will connect this to my Sniper so it can control the fan. I also plan on installing the stock horseshoe shroud. When the time comes she should be a cool running Avanti.

While restoring the headlight buckets on my 63 I scraped off some gasket material where the bucket comes in contact with the body. I cannot find any reference to a gasket and the parts book does not list one for the round headlight Avanti only for the square headlight. So I guess I need to make a gasket for this unless someone knows of a place that makes one for this location. Thanks, Tom
