Some are much better than others but none are perfect matches to the origi=

I fully agree with your description of an 'old' flasher=C2=A0unit but it wa=
s not a bi-metal strip but a wire under tension that extended and lost its =
tension when current went through it and cut off the current, similar to a =
bi-metal strip. The wire then cooled and shrank allowing the current to flo=

several times. When I retrieved it from a rental garage (four years ago aft=

the steam out of me finishing the car. <br>
<br>
I'm retiring this spring so I hope to put the time (and money) into get it
done. Well see if this happens or if I too end up selling and enjoying a
different car. Though I could give it to a 20 something nephew has the skil=

finish it. He is not yet shown interest in something like that, he's more i=

running theme. I purchased a BJ7 in the mid 1990s. Started restoring. Moved
several times. When I retrieved it from a rental garage (four years ago aft=
er
having stored it five years) the interior had been stolen. It was in separa=
te
boxes waiting for me to finish the body. So now I have no seats, carpets, d=
oor
cards or interior trim. It was all leather and worth several grand. That to=
ok
the steam out of me finishing the car. <br>
<br>
I'm retiring this spring so I hope to put the time (and money) into get it
done. Well see if this happens or if I too end up selling and enjoying a
different car. Though I could give it to a 20 something nephew has the skil=
l to
finish it. He is not yet shown interest in something like that, he's more i=
nto
mid-80s pick-up trucks. But tastes change.<br>
<br>
Good luck with the paring down of projects. Life gets shorter and we all ha=
ve
to decide what we want to spend our time doing. Driving a Bugeye is a lot m=
ore
fun to most people than restoring a car.</span></p>=20
