I ran the engine for half an hour today w/ cup or so of oxalic acid crystals in the coolant (just water right now). I'm going to leave it in for a...
Well, she purrs like a kitten now. bumps off on the first revolution w/o choke. I set the initial advance at 6 degrees, at least until I get...
Turns out it was the brand new ignition module. I bought an overpriced blue grommet at advance and that fixed the problem. Dizzy seems to be...
Hey guys...I haven't had a project in a while, but I just bought a '66 f100. it's been sitting a good long while (since '96, from what I can tell)...
last time i checked, $12/8 was a buck fifty.
you could find a door handle with the lock cylinder in the push button and recess the button. you'd then just unlock and push and it'd pop the...
another +1 for allmetal. we use it on anything flexible because it won't crack. here's a test: spread out about an 1/8th inch of allmetal and of...
welcome! I'll be moving to your neck of the woods next weekend :)

most rust issues I've seen come back are places where rust wasn't completely removed. (I work for my dad restoring cars, he has been using PPG...
that bondo applicator is slick as shit, but the bondo is terrible. we demo'd one at the shop a while ago. I'll stick to rage gold and allmetal...
