It's probably a microswitch that needs adjustment. They're very simple devices that typically last the life of the car. There's quite a few of...
I replaced all 14 elastic bands on my 360 Spider (same exact capote mechanism) and wrote up a rather long and boring article describing the...
Great design job of a complex part. Are you going to publish the design someplace or keep all this fabulous work to yourself? What printer did...
Many of the OEM parts are just as old as the cars themselves. Age takes a toll on parts sitting on a shelf so it's likely the failure rate will...
I've had my car for three years and three thousand miles and have yet to wash it with water. For some magical reason, it stays clean. [ATTACH]
@Rick Hall - I suggest dropping a message to Mike at @Yellow Compass . He knows the market and may even know a buyer. If nothing else, he can give...
Since you're new to the gated 360, and haven't driven a manual for a while, I'd like to offer a bit of advice given to me when I picked up my car....
We are our own worst enemy. Personally, what I think is the driver of all this negative emotion in the US and elsewhere are the conflict...
@LorenzoR - The meter setting you have is for volts AC (~). You want the volts DC range (use the 20 setting). AC is alternating current, like...

First casting complete! I used the vacuum bagging method instead of just a straight wet layup. Using a vacuum bag is both easier and more complex....
The best way to tell where the sound is coming from is to get an engine stethoscope and listen. These things are amazing for that task. They are...
I hear a ticking sound in my car too, and it also runs perfectly. I assumed it was the air injection system.
You could make it a QR code and nobody would think twice about it. The code could say "This sticker covers an ugly spot." [ATTACH]
Inner mold is ready for the first casting. To prepare the mold, it's waxed with a mold release wax, which is like an old fashioned car wax, then...
Early to rise, Early to bed, Makes a man unhealthy, Poor, and dead.
That car looks like it's been sitting in the woods for 15 years. It was probably stolen and abandoned. Either the seller was involved or just...
30 hours to sand just the inner mold! That doesn't count the thousands of hours of sanding I've done on this project. Sometimes, I think I've died...
