Thanks for explaining the reason behind the stoppage. Great work!
I didn't know about Beavercreek, OH. only Oregon.
Nice story, and a nice ride.
I run a 225/70-15 on rear of my 47 club coupe and fits well in wheelwell opening. Similar vintage.
I've had similar issue with mine, a couple of times in the past. Pulled idle mixture screw right out, and blasted with spray carb cleaner. Cleared...
Nice, you never know what the day will bring!
Years ago, there was a company that used the original fill neck on the cowl and used tubing down each cowl side to fill the saddle tanks. Another...
@Budget36 . If you're looking to pull transmission, and was thinking of the kwik-lift style, means you don't have height(or budget) for hoist.I...
@Robert J. Palmer , you're not scratching your head wondering why you have rod bolts left over? :rolleyes:
So sad to hear. My condolences to his family and friends. @Marty Strode , I too like that shot, and makes me appreciate the simpler times of rod...
Thanks for the detailed profile on member @41 GMC K-18 . Happy birthday to you, young sir!
I thought rubbin' was racin', oops wrong topic!
@ekimneirbo , thanks, I was going to add comment on ramp angles, etc, but you did.
Actually, I like both versions.
That's good that those pieces are available. Many moons go, I picked up the original pieces that a fellow had taken off to back-half a 37 coupe,...
In most cases, I'd rather buy driver quality original parts, than reproduction stuff.
Had a broken motor mount boss on a Dodge LA engine. Cut a similar shaped piece from an exhaust manifold and prepped that for welding to the block....
There used to be a guy that sold good frames, out of Nebraska.
The bracket for kickdown cable for the Quadrajet(4 bbl bracket is different from 2 bbl), and the correct "pin" on the throttle arm, are all you...
Hope you do drive it there , that's the best feeling. Just out on the road.
Well, that's not good then.
On a slightly positive take, at least it's only the head surface and not the block too.
Thanks for posting.
Looks good from here. I have friends who paint on a regulr enough basis; they always plan on cutting and buffing, so you're on course. Maybe you...
As @RmK57 stated above, you need the smaller diameter flexplate, with proper balance to use that C4/bell.
Beat me to it @Hnstray
@krylon32, Hear you on the Speedway stock/shipping issue. Buddy here ordered a Ford 9" rear from them and it took forever, as they would get his...
We know it now, though. Wish we could dial it back a bit, to those times, when we started.
I heard there was only one contestant, and you still made runner-up.
A friend of mine used the Maverick rear and CE springs in his 36 Tudor, sway bar mounting had tight clearance to the wheels he was using. But, did...
