Nice, but still a tough choice. A Survivor Pan is a nice find. Mine is a mishmash of parts. 1952, 1964, Repop and custom bits. Starts nice. Runs like a Pan.

I’d like to know who makes those wide whites you’re running there? I recently put new bias black walls on my pan and sometimes I wish I would have sprung extra for the white walls.

When Robin installed the True Duals, he put a tune-up into her. Last year the starting sequence was 3 Prime, ignition & Choke on, 1 or 2 kicks, then she started. But of course with a different tune the Starting sequence will change, and I have been trying different ones. Well, what the hell...... this morning I just pushed her out, ignition on, choke on, and kicked ..... almost started on the first one, fired right up on the second one. I think the key is just a soft full stroke, and not go all “Magilla Gorrilla”.

Morning Coffee.....

Default Ignition switch up

i have points/condenser in the Pan and want to go to Electronic ignition. Who has done this, or what do you have? Also, your experiences. Thanks.
