and this is why everyone should use DMT gaskets - 02/20/12 02:49 PM
I have used DMT products for a long while now but I was just stunned on how his gaskets
fit the parts so perfectly.
These are 69 Superbee tail lights I just finished and I could not get over how precisely the gaskets fit.
Thanks Jim
Jules

I've bought lots of DMT gaskets from a complete Air Grabber set up to fender turn signals, splash guards, etc etc HIGHLY recommended.
Cant wait to see my wiper set up which Jules is doing right now.

I'm doing a bunch of AMC gaskets and heater box kits. I'll actually probably attend a couple AMC shows this year.
Ford gaskets are very similar to Mopars and I've been dabbling in those. Have a few heater box kits. Kinda working on some fringe stuff; Mavericks, Galaxies, Lincolns, etc.
Chevy gaskets - there's a local guy thats an early Camaro resto guru. He actually is a contributor of one of those Camaro resto bible type books. I met him cause he also has a 67 Charger. He told me that the Charger gaskets were SO GOOD that I should do Camaro stuff. I said everyone does Camaro gaskets. He said I know but they are all crap. He agreed most Chevy guys are spoiled by the low price stuff but because it's such a large market that even if I got a piece of it doing premium gaskets it'd be worth it. I bought a few parts and what I see are many gaskets that look like the rubbery stuff similar to the toy from my childhood, Gobblty Goop Maker. It's like some rubber, silicone like material was sloppily poured in a shaped mold. Air bubbles and all. Not sure HOW I would duplicate those accurately. I know all the Chevy gaskets made now are just die cut from sheet stock which isn't correct. I don't want to do it if I can make them accurately so I'll probably stick with Mopar, AMC and some Ford for now. Corvettes are another area I've been approached on.

Thank you so much for making the AMC gaskets!! I've used DMT's gaskets on all my cars and have always been impressed. Thank you Jim!

Any plans to make carburetor kits and gasket sets?

I agree DMTs products are precise, but you need to be more messy with the glue.

The best thing we can all do to help out is to send Jim gaskets we want reproduced...
