If Lucas extends oil life, why would you change oil once a year instead of every other year? I will treat my car to Cerma treatment like I do with my others.

Very much so agree with your last paragraph (and yes, he is talking himself up) - it is combination of all additives and moli blends that defind oil performance. QS 5w30 does have higher then normal zinc, 900 and good amount of fosforus 740 while performs significantly better in ware...

I have not seen any bashing in this writing, only a clear stance on the fact that unless someone has a scientific data to prove that Zinc improves ware protection, they have no room to refute his testing or argue otherwise. As well as the fact that oil companies are uauly have false...

I have tested engine oil multiple times after 6k mi change intervals (black stone labs) from by twin turbo 3.5L ford explorer which I run hard (has ECU tune and sees redline almost daily). Saw much better ware results with QS vs Mobile 1 - just like his research shows. I am not saying 5w30 QS...

Usually, higher zink oils offer the least amount of ware protection. Most of the time adding zink only will promote more ware. Zink additional/high zink is advertising filmic by junk oil companies. Diesel oils offer very modes protection compared to automotive oil as it is designed for low...

Thank you all for reply. Previous owner did replace the whole buttom of the car and welded in reinforcement after torque boxes, but I doubt he reinforced shock mounts prior to throwing in all new suspension. Posibly will look at GR2. Atleast I think its home brew reinforcement...

Is it aftermarket option or was it part of original as well? Rear springs are newer

I have interesting tuning connected to both of my rear shocks, on convertible. Any idea why would this be there and its function? Rear shock - white with bunch of overspray.

Also you can get 13/16 socket 1.9" tall taper top. But cost 4 time more then 3/4 socket from Amazone. https://www.sturdybuiltonline.com/Trailer-Lug-Nuts-12-20-Thread-Chrome-Acorn-Long_p_515.html https://www.boattrailerparts.com/Chrome-Trailer-Lug-Nuts-12-20-Thread-Acorn-Long_p_515.html

Yes, you can get cone heads in same length of 1.9" 1/2x20 Lug Nuts, https://a.co/d/3kJIdgg

If it drives - it survived the junk yard....so survivor!

I was able to find one. Thanks all!

I will pass on Desided, I would rather have one in good condition so I dont have to paint it.

Yes, the cone shape is what you cant find in lugs wich are over 2". 2.5" lug has a crown wich is longer, more of oem length while 2.3 is very short...that's why I am even considering 2.5"

Since OEM lug nuts are impossible to find, what would be best close second? First picture is OEM, they are abou 2.35" long. Second pic, 2.5" long 3rd pic, 2.3" long

Depends in price, maybe I can paint it. How much do you want for it?

Looking for a radio surround, as my been hacked to fit aftermarket.

I am looking for a braket for the seat. Let me know what are you looking for it.

Finished 1st wheel (finally had time today to get to it). Learned a bit what works and what does not, the rest should go much faster. Any type of steel wool - does not work, just adds more work. Was getting a bit dark outside, still has blue protective tape over the black stripe. Will throw 225...

Halfway done with 1st wheel. What started as lets polish up wheels, turned into major undertaking. Due to pitting in aluminium, I had do a lot of sanding.
