I've got a C4 to 429/460 bellhousing I'd let go of if you're interested.
This. Ya, fixture was the wrong word to use. [ATTACH]
Hope you're feeling better. Hell of a score on the hood. Ya know this build will be cool.
I just love the rear end fixture, which appears home made. I'm gonna steal your design.
Holy grail huh? Guess I had the wrong definition.
This sure looks like a consensus to me. [ATTACH]
Real nice work on the conversion. I think everyone with a hydraulic press has a piece or two of bent tubing they used before they figured out to...
Outstanding. Thanks for sharing. Any chance you give some info on the Y bock and tranny? Edit: Nevermind, I found your build thread. Too cool.
You know Gil Gonzalez? My cousin was 16 at the time and living in Turlock. He and his buddies would drive up to Modesto to cruise on weekends. He...
Beautiful scenery!
Yours looks much cleaner than my 312, but the 312 spins easy peasy. [ATTACH]
"not an LS engine or tall wheels/rubber band tire to be seen." Outstanding! There may be hope after all.
Lots of cool stuff here. I'm just starting my hoarding, picked up a standard bore 1957 T-Bird 312 Special E code a couple years ago that spins...
Ya, running a tig bead across those cracks will fix the problem. I've found that using an 1/8 or 3/16" rod welded to an 1/8×1" flat bar, and using...
Mig and tig go back to the 1940's.
Ya, not too many guys heard of that Boss 302.
They seriously fucked up a cool looking Ranchero. Sad deal.
How many Tug McGraws can there be? But that one died many years ago.
Man what a collection of cool cars. Something for everyone.
Learnt something today, never knew Nelson robbed banks in California and hung out in Reno.
Outstanding fab skills.
Thanks for the link. The pic I posted was taken by my buddy Bob Evans in Jake's old garage. My bud Evans has known Jake since high school, and...
Really cool car. [ATTACH]
Roller lifters ain't perfect. Plenty of threads of the rollers coming apart.
Cool build, just read it. What are the specs of the tubing you're using for the frame/cage?
I was so taken aback by the roll bar mounts and spring height adjustments on Unser's car at The Ford, I didn't notice the hair pins. [ATTACH]
Ya, mostly. When I was scratching tickets for a living we used no front plates as probable cause to pull over vehicles. Smart coppers wouldn't...
In order to not be influenced by other posts, I wrote my reply before reading the others. That is dead nuts on Roothawg. Our fathers and...
Now this is a connecting rod. [ATTACH] The cost of the floor was $20 million, in 1929. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Received mine, they were an instant hit.
