I had an old ford where I couldn't get good access to the balancer to turn it, so I took the spark plugs out and turned the generator/alternator,...
Welcome from Katy TX
Hotrodprimer likely has a point about the suspension being far forward for fenders to mount as original, but it sounds like you have a fabricated...
Sorry, I meant Year of Manufacture plates, they don't have a sticker, and my understanding was that everyone's YOM plates expired at the same...
I'm back in the US and I'm pulling my Ford out of storage after 4 years. It seems like the plates expire this year, but I don't know when. Thanks all.
I just switched transmissions on my 289, and the starter won't match up. It looks like the new transmission has the starter mount in a slightly...
Bill knows his business, and he took the worry out of shipping my car. Thanks!
No, you don't need that much width.
Wow, Bob is still getting welcomes?
Dude. Relax.
I don't know where in the USA you live, have you considered blocking the exhaust cross over in the intake that runs between the heads and under...
I'm also from Colorado, Texas humidity takes a minute to get used to. But this is a damn nice time of year right now.
Agree about the spash shield on the intake. I had 2 SBF's get hot and shitty like that, both times the balancer had slipped and my timing was way...
Worst idea ever for a roadster. It does look like a good excuse to get metal flake roof. Take all the paint and seem sealer off, por15, skim with...
I'm looking at getting seats there this weekend. They have some equipment seats that are about exactly the right size, for a hundred bucks each.
SW Houston here. Welcome! Keep an eye out on the forums, we just had a get together, and one will be planned for next month.
It's great to see the pictures of the get together, and Greg's T project. I had an awesome time riding out there and meeting people.
2 new Edelbrocks I bought had the floats set too low, the car would die when you cornered hard. Other than that, no problem. I totally agree about...
Looking forward to it. It's been a long time since I've seen you Fred.
Pecan Creek Grill on Saturday at 10am? Look for me to appear in a minivan if it's raining though. Removeable metal hardtop WILL be in place by...
spend as much time as you can picking your neighborhood, it makes all the difference. I would take a hard look at being inside the 610 loop.
In my book, that's one of very few cars that actually looks ok as a 4 door.
I went there for a Christmas Party/fundraiser about 10 years ago. My mind was blown. I sat down for a drink, right next to Carroll Shelby. I...
I would put a good crankcase ventilation system in and look hard at that water leak before I dumped the motor. It might now be all that bad. Good...
If buyer bought the car on the understanding that the title was not in hand, he shouldn't really make his surprised face when you don't have it...
I missed it, but I will be selling stuff at the one in Humble tomorrow.
anything left for rooms in walking distance?
After you get enough nerve damage on your hands, you really don't need gloves anymore! Welding in nylon socks is a poor idea as well, for all the...
I put an 8.8" irs in my A because I got it Cheap and thought I could just put the suspension in as a unit. It took a lot of work to graft in. In...
I have a 66 mustang water pump bolted to a 1990 351w block. No problemo. I seem to remember there may have been 2 different timing covers/water...
