Alex: Had a great time at my first VLV...proof being the blisters on my feet. Great working with you and the Lonely Knights! Tom
This thread will give you a good explanation. There really isn't a lot of difference between the split 6 and the split 8 exhaust:...
[IMG] And here is the original Buick set-up being used on our Coupe.
The ones I have seen "done" were not too pretty. These were "back in the day" using Gotha brand flanges by shade tree mechanics. Usually lots...
Buick did it for you. In 1940-41 they used their so-called compound dual carburetor set-up with a split exhaust. That is probably the best...
Until he becomes someone's mark. Something tells me that Harry and revenge are kindred.
Add one more Viva Virgin to the list! I will be arriving on Wednesday. Hopefully it won't hurt too much and leave a stain....
Interesting that you guys should mention root beer. Rikster sent me this a little while ago and it has me thinking... [IMG] Ignore the...
Not sure if this makes a difference in color choice. This is the finished bed. Natural Maple with Cherry, Walnut and Copper inlays. [IMG]...
Hey Slime! You resurrected an old thread. But it is timely. I am finishing up some work in the Middle East this week and have been...
My wife's '48 Ford has a vintage Halibrand QC on the V-8 banjo rear that runs a torque tube. Currently it is mated to a Ford column shift 3spd...
You can easily rebuild that Rochester, but may not be satisfied due to their tendency to leak (and lose vacuum signal) by warpage at the airhorn...
Carbking was refering to introducing yourself here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=18
Well...It's not the Carter YF...so I will guess that its the remote oil filter. It would not be '54 block. So thinking 55-62. Otherwise, you...
Wish I could join you guys today. Bit of a haul from Colorado without heat, though. I think I will drag the Model A out of the barn today,...
I rebuild a LOT of Rochester Model B's. There were over 100 variants, so you will be lucky to have a perfect match unless they are still tagged....
There is a lot to be said for the "bullet proof" original mechanical system. I admit to carrying mine with me on the road, just in case. I have...
My 327 on the Model A has a Rochester fuel injection that requires its fuel pump to be driven by the distributor. I am running the stock Delco...
Mine came from Aircraft Spruce online. You might also want to take a look at Caswell's zinc chromate solutions. Google Caswell and you should...
If I am understanding this correctly, the discharge airflow is passing through the fan? I assume that the motor on the fan you chose is not...
Cyberland around these parts (northern colorado). I think that I have used Aircraft Spruce previously. They seemed to have the best price with...
I use an ultrasonic also for the initial clean. With aluminum castings, I often follow up with a bead blast using low pressure and recycled beads...
Welcome! Want to add one more car show to the list: fivewindow johnnie on the HAMB helps host an event in the summer in Gunnison. The show is...
Dan: This is excellent! I can't believe how good your work is. I have been having a heck of a time getting on here lately...but the last few...
Dan: Can't say enough how much I like your work! Thinking I need several of these to grace my office walls as a remembrance of the show. How...
Did you catch this before or after Glenn peeled the hides off that ragtop? I am wondering if that is a grin of contemplation or satisfaction?!?
Way "Like"! Spent so much time in the museum, I missed about half the show. No longer thanks to these great photos!
Incredible. You caught almost the entire line of Lonely Knights rides outside of McPhail's tattoo shop. Love the effect of the oil-painting like...
Thanks! Have to admit, that rain had me worried. It was the first wet test of that new bed wood. One small issue that seems to have resolved...
