That is the best idea. Even though it's only parked a few months for winter, I run my gauge down below empty, then add two gallons of fresh gas,...
I put it in my F100 every year around December, run it long enough to make sure it's in the carb, and it fires up right off the bat in April....
That sucks. Clarence has been good to you though, so return the favor...;)
Too "new" for the HAMB Drags, it's a '65. And Rod did build the motor that's in it now. Whats up with the 14's anyway? Are you still having carb...
14's? My F100 runs 14's. Maybe you need to sweet talk Rod into building your next SBC...
"Stewed"s Dad, "Weekender", was only given a year to live, but he managed to get another 14 or 15 years of quality life in before he passed. Keep...
I would go for a Bugatti Type 57 look.
Yep, I wish he was still around. It was because of him that I have had a lifelong interest in Cars and Drag Racing. RIP Tommy...
Good thing you Elevator guys make lots of money...:D
If they are out of the motor that was in that Henry J, they should be considered family jewels. Or is that not the same motor thats been in there...
I thought it was some kind of asbestos insulation. Couldn't figure out what he wanted it on there for. Angel Hair didn't even cross my mind....:o
Oldest thing I own is a 1936 Westinghouse Radio. My Great Grandparents listened to news of WWII on it while two of their sons (my Grandpa was one...
I like to see stuff like this. Great story, and I'll be watching the rest unfold. Question though. Whats up with these Headers? Are those...
I sharpened the blades on the Beverly shear at work a couple times, using the side of a high quality wheel in our bench grinder. Using the side of...
That looks like the man that designed that particular type of autogyro; Ken Wallis. He was born in 1916 and apparently still flys those things....
And Mules have sense enough not to go into an area with stuff exploding all around them...:) This is kind of scary, but on the other hand, if...
I loved Boyds cars back in the 80's, problem I have with them now is that his basic style never evolved, IMO. The cars he builds now still look...
Lookin' good...:)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_Pouch_Tobacco_Barn Was his name Harley Warrick? The Wikipedia article above mentions him...
I think TrailerEd got some working on an Austin he had.
I don't get it either. Thats one ugly SOB...:eek:
Pretty cool....:D
Its based on a real Nazi Halftrack like this one...
They just showed a pic of the fabricated body. Something looks "off" in the pic though, its hard to tell the scale of the body...
I can make up lots of excuses, but the real one is the two ruptered disc's in my back. An hour is about all I can stand in my F100, and a 2 1/2...
touché...:) And whats really bad is; its only about a 2 1/2 hour drive for me... I'll get down there one of these days. After a...
Move closer to civilization...;)
I think Tommy had 1/2 dozen or so J's stashed in the woods...
Unless your driving skills have improved sometime during the last twenty years, I'd stick with what you've got for a while...:D ;)
A built SBC screaming through open 180 degree headers on a pulling truck makes a pretty unforgettable sound....
