HI! I'm new from Michigan
HI! I'm new from Michigan
I've been lurking for a while and decided to post for first time. My headlights are dim and wondered what I could do about it. I just bought this spider (Dont know what year, but it is old and has something called a carbberratorr or something like that in it). When I brought it home, my mom decided to give it a bath.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: HI! I'm new from Michigan
Pope, don't worry about how bright the headlights are, just don't drive at night. Don't worry about what a 'carburetor' is, they never cause any problems. Don't worry about what year your car is, it's not an '82, so it doesn't matter. What you need to worry about is your Mother climbing all over the car when she's washing it!

Re: HI! I'm new from Michigan
Welcome Pope !
Keep posting pictures and we'll be happy to explain , can you post a close up from those headlights ? you may need to take of the cups first When your @ it . Also take one of the trunk so we can see if everything is smootly connected
as for the carburator i suggest to turn on the knobs for getting some etra power out of them
ok now lets talk about the spider ....

Re: HI! I'm new from Michigan
Since we’re posting pictures of our relatives, here’s a photo of my two Italian cousins and their Fiat.

Denise, if you contact Mrs. Bouse, I'm sure she'll email you a picture of Mike wearing some Daisy-Duke-ish cutoffs and working on his car shirtless.

Re: HI! I'm new from Michigan
Hmmm, that gives me an idea. Why don't all you fellas send me a pic of you in a compromising position while working on your Fiats and I'll make my own Snap-On calendar? Now be sure to wear something revealing and have your favorite tool. Mike, you can be Mr. January.

Re: HI! I'm new from Michigan
So Alvon in his coveralls, swinging a sledge hammer at a crow bar working on my car won't make it into your calendar?

I'd be very careful about asking for guys to photograph their favorite tool!
