Re: 1959 CC Ski 18'
So are we estimating that most of the early v-8 runabouts are being run with the gauge running one side of the engine and monitoring that? I'm not seeing many red lights or second temperature gauges.

Re: Oil Pressure Sending Unit
my 2 cents,
C-3" face- 60 degree sweep (0-60)
353-Y is and old SW number.
Ohms should be 33-240
give it a look

Here is the route I went with one new Plexiglass side with thinner glass. I am assuming this is the area you want gasket material not the base two piece .

Re: Windshield Molding
Auto windshield shops have catalogs as well as stock many types of windshield rubber mounting rubber. Find an old shop as older cars and trucks used various types to fill the voids. Thats where I found mine.

Re: Stainless Rub Rail
I do like the idea behind the Vix bit, the rail will be going into new wood and I hadn't given it much thought about perfect centering. Thanks everyone for all the ideas. I will go with #6 Stainless oval heads which is what I had planned.

Re: Jetson stern pole
Most people don't realize there are at least 3 different O.D. diameters of these poles, different bases and lengths. The generic Jetson pole description just wont get what many will need. Al has them at California Classics but they are pricey. I watched for the correct one on Ebay for mine for 7 yea...
