  • South Bend Karma

    Ted Harbits booth was a Karmic center last weekend. N8 got a free, good used throw out bearing and I scored big on stuff I needed. I thought I was going with Turner brakes on the cheap Avanti because I had two disk wheel cylinders that were too bad to hone. I spotted 4 bronze, and 2 stainless sleeved cylinders on Ted's table. Since most folks would buy a set of 4, Ted sold me the 2 odd ones for way too little. Later, I found out my used $250 Avanti radiator would not make it to South Bend. N8 mentioned that Ted had a aluminum Avanti radiator in his booth. I figured he'd want more then I could afford, but I asked and he said "$195". One thing you can say about Ted and no other vendors, he sometimes sells stuff too cheap, and you can't talk the price up. <g>
    Bought some NOS Avanti brackets from SASCO and got it mounted.

    Nice, JDP! I don't blame you for not installing some radiator hoses. They are getting "pricey" these days, just like everything else. Just Curious--do you have a t-10 with shifter that would readily fit into a 58, for sale?

      I have a few T-10 and some NOS bench seat shift levers.

        Correction, one NOS bench seat lever (I also owe you for a R1 fuel pump core and a shift boot.)
