I totally agree. I started gathering cars in the early 70’s when there was a huge push for recycling metal. I just wanted to save some from the...
Great place to start. I’ll try the stock height pickup ones first and go from there . Thanks for the help fellas !
Yes that is the setup I have. Not sure which series the car is. Was originally a six cylinder engine. Any idea of what later coils may work?
I have a 1948 Oldsmobile Sedanette. It has a 12 bolt diff mounted on the original trailing arms. I would like to get the rear height lowered by 3...
First I have to figure out how to post pics!
Boys and guns! Don't care where you live!
I sure enjoy your posts from Alberta. I have my own yard with over 100 vehicles and a good friend 50 miles from here with close to 500! I guess I...
yes. I am sure it would work. You still need to turn a return line. Don't see any advantage.
Great picture for sure!
My first car was a 47 Plymouth coupe. I didn't like the look of the welting so just bolted the fenders on. The squeaking drove me crazy! Some...
I had a 58 Safari with a 348, 4brrl, 3 spd. And dual exhaust, all factory original. Sold it this past Spring. It's being restored. Neat car!

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have this car in my yard. If I can get you more precise pics that would help, just let me know.
I know how you feel. I closed my shop 3-1/2 years ago after trying to hold onto my dream and not admit defeat. I was offered a great position in a...
How about s 1958 Pontiac Safari with factory 348, 4 barrel, dual exhaust and 3 speed manual.
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have a complete four door minus the hood and grille. Sorry. I don't wish to part it out. It would be a good project for someone.

I have a two door sedan and a 4 door Fleetline in my yard. The deck lids are very different. I don't know how to post pictures or I would. Rick
Definitely a later Olds engine. With the Rochester 2 brrl carb, I am guessing a 350 from the early seventies.
Hi Alan! Long time, no see! It would be great to have a visit with you again. Come on down to "Neverland" and I'll buy you lunch. You're only an...
from Baldur, Manitoba (SW). Not in the middle of nowhere, but you can see it from here! I have had many Canadian built cars, including a '69...
The '54 Chrysler is a great looking car in stock form. With the chop and a good slice of lowering (tortion bar clip) it will be fantastic! a 360...
This guy has one. http://vavavoomgarage.ca I'ts a "C" series and I think about 34 or 35. I believe it might be a 1-ton, no box. Not sure of the...
I recently picked up a '57 Ford Custom 300 2 dr. I have a 351 Windsor and an AOD from an 84 Mercury. Was wondering what a swap like this would...

Nope, going to build the Buick for myself. Buford is just a slang term we use up here for a Buick. (Goofy Canadians, eh?) Jess's car is the 31...
Can't wait forever! :( hink of it this way, Big Olds will have a big brother in Buford!
When mounting your engine/transmission, mount the unit with the carb level with the chassis set at the desired rake. Use a small level on the...
