another grabbed from the bucket plans site. The instant T [ATTACH]
and for those who are still skeered of those smoke filled noodles, print off a copy of the diagram and grab a highlighter. One circuit at a time....
..and that's just if you crank it over without the clutch in! ;):D
BTT, would really like these and the Chrysler gone so I can get something else out there. Need the money and space. Offers?...

This guy! https://sandiego.craigslist.org/search/sss?userpostingid=7739850973#search=1~gallery~0~58 I really don't want or need another project,...
That transition from cowl to windshield base on the chevy is pretty close too. [IMG]
I looked at Dodges. Between curved windshield bases 23-up and the firewall curve/top of door (body) curve, I didn't see a better match....
1922 Chevy? https://classiccars.com/listings/view/558268/1922-chevrolet-touring-for-sale-in-hanover-massachusetts-02339 [IMG] [IMG]
Well, Garlits is credited with the first 200 in '64. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IQN4gCgUlo or is it Chris Karamesines in '60?...
Yep, the timing tabs moved around (along with the balancer groove) with the long pumps too. When you have a basic engine used for decades that is...
I've seen Glyptol on cast parts but not on sheetmetal. I'd also worry about the top of the oil where all the nasties float to leave a etched line....
Yep, the type of paint and the condition dictate what's needed to bring it back. Start with the mildest and if that works, great. If not, work up...
Run the fuel line and exhaust if possible before the body drop. The fewer things you have to do laying under it, the better. I'd even suggest...
As much as I can 'hear' the hemi pics, I 'felt' that broach from the back of my teeth to my toes! [IMG]

If it was close by, I'd offer to go take a look, but it's 300 miles out.
Joe, I kind of hinted it with the specs and the inspector stuff. Others have also pointed that way. Before you buy from your friend, get it...

I know I'm in the minority here on this, but the GM lump is just ugly. [IMG] Being a Mopar guy, their alt looks nice. [IMG] I prefer the late...
More hot rod, but don't know how much you'd end up using. Dig the wavy axle. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3606583339614383 1923 T...
A big project (aren't they all?) but appears to be a fairly decent start....
