Don't have a favorite but this photo looks cool to me...[ATTACH]
Seems like every winter the same thing happens, I hang out in my garage and look at my stuff and my mind starts, "should I keep the (fill in the...
The problem with welding them is even with taking the steering column out there's not enough clearance to get that assembly in there in one piece.
[ATTACH] I replaced them with 3/8” SS bolts... good call, thanks!
I've owned this '32 Ford for a couple of years and I've posted all the brake issues I've had with it since the day I bought it. First and foremost...
Cool pics! Thanks for sharing them.
Thanks, the old MC was a universal (most likely Speedway) 1" bore MC with the 7" power booster.
I didn't do a vacuum test but it's coming right off of the rear of the carburetor and it appears to be working. The previous master was 1" bore...
This is for my '32 Ford Roadster with the MC/power booster mounted in the brake. I've been chasing down a shitty brake situation for weeks now and...
Follow up post... used a Motive power bleeder and finally got a pedal however I noticed I was still getting air out of the left rear bleeder. The...
Yep... sure did. I can overlook the not properly flared line since someone may have replaced it but no access hole is just ridiculous! I have to...
Well it's been over a year with this locking caliper post and so far the following has performed. First thing, changed out both front calipers,...

I went to High School with John and ran into him two years ago at Lancaster during their vintage racing weekend. He told me about his wife's...
I bought this car late last year. It was built by East Coast Rod Shop in 2015 and only had 900 miles on the car. Since it was barely driven I was...
Strong, pops right back
Pedal feels good (returns fully, checked on that yesterday)
I thought about the hose (uses stainless braided lines like shown) and I did consider that, I guess that's where I start. Thanks
I'm having a problem with my '32 roadster. The drivers side front caliper gets hung up after 30 miles or so of driving around town. I thought it...
Very nice! Truck looks great.
All good stuff, I'm going to check with the guy who painted it and ask exactly what he used. I bet it would wet sand down and possibly be cleared...
Well it's 2017 and I ended up selling that truck shortly after this thread. Then, as luck would have it, I bought it back this past May. The...
Great thread, love the history (and of course the car!) Wally
TagMan, I live in Buffalo and I'm picking up a '29 Tudor A on Saturday. The po gave me a '29 NY plate that uses an "H 3" on the left side (that...
I have a 1951 Ford F1 that the previous owner painted with rustoleum paint. I hate the paint job, from twenty feet away it looks okay but up close...
Had them on the last '51 F1. I ordered them through summit racing and they were made to my specs right here in the good ol' USA. wally [IMG]
Here's my '51 Ford F1 when I bought it in May 2013 and when I finished it in January 2014. We replaced the worn 390 and C6 with a sbc, turbo 350,...
Sorry for your loss. Wally
I've been making some steady progress on my '51 Ford f1 but I have a question about my fuel line. I ran a steel 3/8" line from the pump to the...
Really? Where I live there's a big gathering at a local racetrack once a week. I went twice and each time I was greated by a roadblock where State...
