    TM for convoy lights

    Agreed , if you read section 375 41-3 , of the NYS Vehicle and Traffic law , it spells it out , but it also says you can display AMBER lights on a HAZARD VEHICLE , a MV doing 40-45 MPH in a 55 or more ZONE is a HAZARD , IMHO . To me a warning light is common sense . It comes down to the same old...

    No offence taken , these will be for show only , I am WELL acquainted with the NYS VTL , and yes you have to be aware of the rules of the game in your particular state .

    TM for convoy lights

    Thank you one and all , gotta love SS ! I would like to use the lead off the dimmer switch , with the separate dash switch , that way it will kill the lights when I turn off the master. I am using strobes which really don't have a big draw , so should be good to go . I have to give the poles a...

    Entry Level MIG Welder

    I have a Hobart 210 from TSC , man a nice little welder , got it on sale , plus a 10% off coupon , what a deal . Yes , and go with the shielding gas , MUCH easier and a better weld . I got a nice cart from Northern Tool during one of their sales , so I ended up with a nice welding station .

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Words of wisdom for what it's worth , " Easier to stay out of trouble than to get out of trouble once you get in " been there done that , it is no fun and in the end ,you HOPE you get something out of it .

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Agreed , do not spend any MORE money , in the end , if you end up with some type of ownership , you could part out the MV , maybe recoup some of your money .

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    The criminal route IS the way to go and yes they can and do get your money , if he is a registered dealer he should be BONDED , you would go against his bond . Does your legal person have any DMV/title experience ? most don't , and do not have a clue about DMV/Title Law . Trust me , it's what I...

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    He has NO TRUCK , what he has is a title to god knows what , is this person a REAL dealer or did he jump title ? Florida has DMV investigators , that's what they do , this is out and out FRAUD ! I would be going the criminal route , nothing like a set of bracelets and a little gray bar motel to...

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    It appears that the only "thing" you own is the TITLE ! Very wise to get some legal advise , man what a can of worms . If I might ask is the dealer in the SAME state as you ? If not then that really gets to be a PITA . I would also speak with YOUR AG and Postal Inspector about a fraudulent sale...

    Quick alternator question

    If I follow you correctly , that is the brush/regulator assembly , use a drill or paper clip to hold the brush's in (2 small holes) when you assemble the unit to the rotor . I am not sure what you can "SEE" , but there is not much you can check with out some equipment . Parts are available for...
