I'm going to buy a wideband by Innovate tomorrow, to make carb adjustment easier 8) Going to install it also tomorrow.

I'm also going to install panhard this up coming winter, I already have a bar for it, I think its from 59 GM, doesnt remember which model, could be Impala 😳 Thinking about buying new brackets for it. Any succestions, are these any good?
