Best wishes, Max.
A decade ago an older neighbor spied me through the open man cave door clumsily chipping away happily at a forever project. He's since been a...
I need a flywheel dust cover for my 1953 F100 with 4 speed. I'd guess I can modify something that is close. Advice? Thanks!!
As for the questions regarding dimensions Chris forwarded, I'm happy to get some measurements. I'm not sure I'm reading this right. One more...
Input always appreciated. I'm not sure what you're trying to suggest about the particular project here. How 'bout 2 more pennies or so? Thanks.
Also from SLC. Cannot go wrong with Chris at Salt Flats Speed Shop in Orem. Does a great job!
Sorry, meant your work on the car.
The future is so bright for a nice young man with talent, style and enthusiasm. Did mention talent? HUGE THANKS Chris. It's been really cool...
Did I just see what I thought I saw? I gotta learn to do stuff half that cool.

Sigh.
Hey, 73roundlight, thanks for those pics. Always loved those cars!!
You know your quote, bad decisions make good stories? Let's just say I have a good story about Roger and leave it there, but Thanks.
Do you know if the "8" in the "Type" means year of manufacture, '48? Is there anything different about a Type 8RNN? The valve seats are...
Just tore down a late flattie that had been on an industrial pump. Bearings were worn to the copper and about to go, but it was perfect. No...
Guessing from your handle you do God's work (beer is proof there is a God and he wants us to be happy). Welcome. Think about converting to 12v.
That is completely, big grin, SWEET!!
I recently bought a late flattie. The story was it had been on a water pump at mine/refinery near SLC, Utah. That story checked out. The...
Cons talk like nice people, play to your empathy. I like it that most people still want to believe the best about Norby, and it speaks well of...
Anyone have a recommendation for a machine shop for my 8BA flattie Ford in the Salt Lake City area? Thanks.
