Re: Hot Rod oil

"Re-refined"

Back in the day that term referred to used oil that was recycled.

The term still applies today.

Re: A source for exterior body moldings...

Here are the photo's of what the molding looks like at both ends, the width is right on but the length seems wrong.
It could be you have the longer door molding.

I have a badly dented L/F fender molding.
Got some of it out but still not happy.
Hope someone here might be able to help.

I retired from bucklenusting 10 years ago. Back then you only torqued a cold to the touch head.
BTW you only torque a loose fastener, after that, you're checking tightness.
I do not use my TW's...

I have MacGyver wires I attach to a 9v battery and then to 'Bertha's 6v to fool the 'smart' in my charger.
