I put a S10 frame under my 40 pickup. started it about 10 years ago, but haven't done much with it in the last 5 years. Had the same problem with...
Last week I was watching an old episode of "Emergency!" on TV and caught this on Video tape. The guys were called to a repair shop were a young...
That Falcon looks sweet. Is it all Stock?
The Mustang carpet was in poor shape but I may lay it out and see if it is close enough to work. Right now I have some cheap Walmart carpet cut...
My floors were in pretty good shape, but I cut the trans/driveshaft tunnel out of my 83 Mustang donor car and overlayed it on the Falcon floor to...
The first S10 frame swap i ever saw was about twelve years ago done by a co-workers father with an early 50's stude coupe. It looked like a natural.
Saw this one at a show a couple years ago, not sure it was an original. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]

Here's my basket case I started about 12 years ago on a S10 frame. Used the brake setup and the complete wiring harness from the S10. [IMG]
Glad to hear everyone is OK. Don't give up on it. Back in the 70's my 65 Goat got hit and twisted the front frame. It took about 6 months but I...
Does the sensor unbolt from the trans? I put a 85 Mustang T5 in my 63 Falcon and just removed the sensor and the stock Falcon speedo cable fit...
I forgot all about it this year. I see my neighbor at the end of the street was there. Guess I'll have to tell him to remind me when the shows are...
Update on the 63 (6 cyl 3 speed last spring) Put a 5.0 H.O. with a 5 speed in just before winter. Now its my favorite baby. I almost forgot what...
Snapped this at the junk yard a couple years ago, was the first one I'd seen in years. [IMG] Just for kicks, this one a custom rodder...
Here's our 59 in all its glory $40 paint job, can't see the bug and leaf imprints in the picture, but looked good going down the road. Right now...
This was a very unscientific test. The test pressure was constant were as in an engine the peak pressure is only there for a very short time....
The line pressure at the shop only went to 140 psi at the plug tester. Don't remember if the machine could handle higher pressure.
Here's mine, Still not on the road after 10 years of part time working on it starting with a rust bucket. [IMG] [IMG] here's some pics...
I pretty much use Autolites. I did an experiment back in the 60's when I worked at the service station after high school. In those days a lot of...
Saw this one at a Tampa show last year. Think it was all Mohogany [IMG] [IMG]
Man, I envie those with such vision to turn a rusty piece of iron into something soo cool. This one was done by a guy a few miles from me. He...
Here's The Wild Child. Saw this at a Camaro show of all places. http://www.motorheadextraordinaire.com/wildchild.php [IMG]
Had to do the same thing on the Camaro this weekend. It had been sitting in the previous owners garage for 12 years. I did what we used to do at...
Certainly not New England. I tried not driving our 96 T-bird on the winter roads and it still rusted out. I found SF Bay Area was great when I...
Yeah, they make it a crime to cut down a tree (you can always grow a new one). Somehow someone needs to make it a crime to crush old iron.
Glad you're OK. I was wondering, as I was reading everyones response, is the oil for the K & N air filters flamable? I have them on the daily...
Can't say if the cars define me or if I define the cars. I been wrenching on cars for 45 years and just try to make them not look like anybody...
My wife gets more pissed at these bidders driving up the prices then I do. She's worried that we won't be able to find anything affordable when...
