I couldn't find a picture on the interweb showing a meter measuring 12 volts. I guess this guy was hoping to measure 12v so he's on the 50v...
So here's the deal: this meter has 3 dc voltage scales, 10v dc, 50vdc, 250vdc, those are the three black scales, and 3 corresponding positions...
I have been using multimeters all my life but for just checking if there is voltage present I prefer a test light. If the amount of voltage is a...
Here's mine, or most of it. [ATTACH]
I'm 69, wasted valuable time this year trying to get a Dana 60 to work in my "41, now going the Ford Explorer route. When we were kids we went...
I'm 68 now and I'm also dealing with Winter. My motivation is to make whatever part I'm working on the most important part of my build. So if...
First drive, note the studded snow tires! [IMG]
I build aluminum chassis for guitar amps. I have a website and also sell through ebay. Having the metal fabrication equipment comes in handy...
I agree, if you're a hotrodder Winter sucks.
I temporarily mounted a tank from a Geo Metro and the filler lines up perfectly. Only problem it's only 10 gallons.
I found the safest and cheapest(I only run heat when I'm in the garage) is a 220v 3000w suspended heater with fan.
There's a very important safety lesson here, never attempt anything that could affect highway safety unless you have the proper method at hand....
I have a Chinese one similiar to that, It's great for making special bolts(smaller ones from bigger ones) or spacers, sleeves etc. But I don't...
I don't she was flirting, pardon my bias but I don't think she was interested in the opposite sex.
On my '41 Tudor I had to both slot and shim it to get it to fit properly without the latch installed.
Every once in a while I get lucky at the parts counter. I usually get some pimply kid but this time it was a middle aged manly woman. I picked...
Thanks, actually when I installed the new main leaf it fixed that shackle angle problem. Now I have 45 degrees with the body back on.
Sorry I'm no good at build threads or updates. Here's a picture of my paint job which I'm doing in sections. [IMG]
I've always understood it is necessary for it to bottom out before the pedal hits the floor. That's what I've done with my present project....
Outdors is perfect early spring and late fall when there are no bugs.
I was painting the orange on my hood, I guess a wasp was attracted to the bright color, when I saw him he was laying on his back in the paint....
I agree, I've had ideas, one OT I developed and am marketing now, but I've never shown anyone one of my "great" ideas. Just sayin'
I'm near Bridgewater.
Here's mine - work in progress. [IMG]
I totally agree but it's also sad sometimes. I know an old guy who has a '65 Ford pickup, I think he owned it since new. Lots of guys have...
68, just bought the '41 last year.
I realize I'm an 'old timer', but I can't for the life of me see beauty in a stance that has the front wheels stuffed up inside the fenders.
Unless you are confident you can check the quality of his mig test bead I would go with the stick. I would worry about proper penetration with...
Thanks for the advice, I found what I needed from Rockauto.com. They had it listed under 1968 F100. FYI the bolt pattern is the same as my...
This looks like what I have. [IMG]
