Finally found a new driver and a few new sponsors for the Gulf-Sterling.

Got the Sebring engine running today.

WOW, looking good buddy!!

This past weekend I got the windshield and sunroof glued in and this inspired more work yesterday. I spent about 6 or 7 hours sanding off more old paint. I also got an old pair of side pipes (thanks chris) installed, perfect for hiding the drop floors. I think they really fit the car perfect. I...

Not sure how durable it would be in a truck bed but for this application it is great. It is more just for looks in the front compartment, adds a nice texture. Rustoleum Brand Pro Bed Liner Spray.

Got the front compartment sprayed with a light coat of bedliner aerosol. Looks nice, smells terrible but covers nice. I can reassemble the AC unit after 72 hrs dry time.

The hose clamps actually come with the fittings and are supposed to be adequate. I have a crimper but opted to see how the clamps work. I can tell you that once the barb fitting go in the hose, there is no getting them back out.

Me too! If it works well I might switch out #114 and maybe even install AC in the Gulf race car.

Well this is my first attempt at an electric AC system in a car. I got all my lines made up and everything plumbed in. Then everything came out and I am ready to paint the inside of the front compartment.

Thanks for the extra effort Brett, I appreciate the help. I will figure something out, it can not be that difficult.

Any chance you have a photo of what the headlight bucket hinges / mech looks like?

Thanks Brett, I will make a post there too for the manual.

There is no substitute to this site for great information and easy follow through.

I got to spend a few hours today up until it got dark. I started with getting some brackets installed for the 8gal poly tank I am going to use for fuel. The brackets install on some wood wedges that go through the rear cabin wall. I used a 1/2" plywood backer board in the engine compartment...

Does anyone have a photo of what the hinge mechanism looks like on a sebring? I know there is a cross bar that goes between them but I have no idea of how it all connects or works. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Got to spend some time on the Sebring today. Decided to put a motor in that I already had sitting in the garage. If I remember correctly its a 1641 with dual Kadrons. It ran pretty good last car it was in so I decided to throw it in to both get some floor space back in the garage and so I can...

Building a 1915 that may end up in the Sebring unless I sell it before I get a chance to install it.

Putting on some finishing touches while it's on my engine run stand. Hopefully get to run it this week or coming weekend.

On the new Sterling??????? Is there a new Sterling in the works or are we talking new to you Sterling?
