One for a 59 Chevy. Looks 100% to be the same.
Somebody installed one at some point.
1959 Chevy Truck with a Delco Remy generator. Old generator bearings finally giving up. Had a very reputable shop overhaul it. Tested good. Put it...
So do they expect me to run 4” or pedal free play and have 1” between the throwout bearing and the fingers? Not being a jerk, just want to know...
I’ve asked on some Mopar sites and nobody has really helped me out. This is my 1st 4 speed conversion. I did the 360 swap and 4 speed. A standard...
That’s very interesting. A cold break in.
After watching this, lineworkers seemed to be fairly bitter people at times. No wonder they did michevious stuff. [MEDIA]
Oh come on... surely there are some neat stories. Or cool facts the public won’t know.
Of all the people I’ve met and know in the auto industry, I’ve never met anybody that worked on the assembly line. Particularly the muscle car...
I should have really been more careful about my wording. Holy smokes. I have no interest at all to build a hot rod that has street signs for floor...
I’d rather go 40’s. I have Mopar Muscle cars and a 63/64 Isn’t that much different than my collection is now.
Fad? It was a fad 40 years ago. Pretty sure not that many people are building gassers. Rat rods are lame. I hate them. I want to build a gasser...
I keep thinking 41 coupe. There is one locally that’s solid but rat rodded with no engine or trans. I’m Not going to cut on an original. I see...
I’m a die hard Mopar guy. For some reason over the last 2 years I’ve been wanting a Plymouth gasser. I’m not into the rat rod thing but I think I...
FMJ stuff is plentiful and works fine.
Read my post. It is correct. 73 up.
I’m searching for some Mopar stuff and came across this oldie. You are mistaken on this one. I am the second owner of an extremely original 1973...
Thanks guys. What voltage should a generator charge? I'm familiar with alternators. 13.5 or 13.6 and it wasn't erratic. It restarted very easily...
Update. Used my jumper pack and it started. I wiggled all the wires. I fired it up and neve lifted until I got home. Showing 13.5 or so at a high...
Yeah I knew better than to not pack my road kit. But it was last minute. I will jump it off with my pack and head towards the house after the...
I always pluck the negative terminal off when I store it in the shop. I just read about polarizing. Is there a chance I could reverse it and make...
I'm in the middle of nowhere really. I just told My wife ... we have 3 multimeters at the shop! Ahhh the joys of driving these old girls.
Very stock 60 F-100 with 223 ci engine. It's still got the generator. Had to jump it off this morning to go to a car show an hour away. It wasn't...
Thanks. I'm sorry I waited this long to put disc on it. In a way I'm a purist snob about correct restorations. But the older I get, the more I...
The internet is a powerful thing. Having said that, I want to share my experience. Google led me to the upgrade and kit, but there wasn't much...
another when new.[IMG]

The thread from the dead...[IMG]
My wife has a nice little 1960 F100 with stock drums up front. I'm tired of adjusting and keeping them tuned up. I've been looking at Soeedways...
I race a dirt late model and am starting to do more of my own sheetmetal work. I've got an 8' brake and some other basic tools. I really want a...
