Not painted, aged original surface. The motor had a few miles on a rebuild, which is what Judsons are intended for.
The Blue Screamer helped me eliminate the vacuum line
Gotta love vintage speed _________________ Even my nuts are plated.....

When you've got vintage speed, you better keep an eye on it

I have a Judson in my '57, I also have a remote oil filter like yours but cannot find anyone who makes/sells the hydraulic lines. Where did you get yours? |

Try contact Al his username here is OMT, I´m pretty sure he can make some oil lines. _________________ http://vw-bluehats.blogspot.com/ |

Steph (Mr. WOB), Al (OMT) or Thomas are all doing a great job making these lines.... so you shouldn't have any trouble getting them made up. _________________ Even my nuts are plated.....

Damned!
I just thought I made a find on a boost cauge on a different forum but the seller didn't want to part it out from a Judson set.
So I envy you a lot |

That's one of Stephane Lhonneux's Judson Gauges...and he's back in business: [email protected] |
I know that this is one of his gauges
...but I tried to contact him via that e-mail in his internet site, which I believe is no longer in use
But thank you for his new e-mail address! |
