1930 Chrysler
I believe this was made by a Hamber but I can't remember who. If I remember right, he used AD Chevy pickup rear fenders to make the rear quarters....
I have been eyeing the front fenders off several early 60's F100's I own. The shape almost lends itself to a roadster ass with a little work. I...
My parts washer is full of red diesel. Works good and I don't mind the smell at all. I clean a lot of gun parts in that parts washer as well and...
I like your attitude man. Keep after it and you'll be driving in no time. Best wishes to you and your wife.

Love the Econoline and even better that it was your Grandpas. Years ago my brother and I pulled the tired 200 six out of his Ranchero and replaced...
V8 60 Wide five wheel. Measures 3 1/2 wide. Valve stem hole is perfect, wheel good shape, all hubcap clips but one are broken. $100 PayPal. I’ll...
This deserves a bump.
Bump it
Bump with more photos added. Also have the frame and a pile of 8BA's most with attached transmissions I'd throw it all in for an extra 500. Price...
Mercury flathead complete motor with Merc heads/intake. Water most definitely got into the top end as I pulled a head and #5 cylinder has a freeze...

1933 Ford Pickup cab for sale. Good subrails, bottom of doors rotten but both doors are there. This was a grain truck in another life. Comes with...
That's a cool looking building to boot. I bet it's amazing to climb all over that place and just keep finding treasure. I know that I for one...
Besides the Blue Thunder intake, I see nothing trick about that motor. 292's are as common as dirt. I love Y-Blocks like a mechanical sibling but...
I've never been but sounds like something I'd like to go to. Where do they have it at?
If it's running ok right now and all you want is to get it to stop leaking oil and smoking I'd just do a valve cover gasket and new valve stem...
I had a similiar issue on a 700R4 and it was caused by a bad transmission mount.
Good tech and great pictures. I have an old wooden "The 500" that I'm gonna go do this to now.
Nice 34. I saved a 33 1 1/2 ton truck also and it was in great shape, perfect subrails. Most of the 1 ton and up are in much better shape than the...
I have a 110v Century Mig that I bought from a co-worker for cheap and it came with a full roll of flux core wire. I have used it on heavy stuff...
That is one killer setup thanks for the pictures.
The guy in the letterman jacket needed to get his ass kicked.
"reduction in friction increases clamping force for a given torque" This makes sense to me, and I believe that is the point that everyone is...
I use anti-seize as well and I've never had a wheel fly off. I also use a torque wrench to install them and not a 4 way.
If the machine shop still has the old one it should be as simple as pulling out the mic and checking the books for one that will work. I find it...
Tell us about the Merc, why is it your favorite/the one you picked. I bet theres a story behind that.
I was remodeling my upstairs in my home and found a local newspaper from 1964 in the wall. The guy who was selling the 56 Ford wagon with the 312...
I second this motion.
