I am finishing up installing an MT Car Products bendix style brakes on my early ford front end. When adjusting the brakes I'm noticing a drag...
I called Summit. They're the ones that told me that Lucky 7 is out of business. They have a few prices left, no axles. They said it takes time to...
I appreciate the feedback. I was "hoping for" another answer to make it easier. I know this next question has been battered around on here...
I recently picked up a '32 Roadster with severe front end damage. I'd like to get it back to driving condition reusing as many of the good parts...
I just learned that this car was for sake at Seelye Ford / Kia in Kalamazoo or Paw Paw Michigan. It was on their lot when someone totaled it on a...
Is that where your car came from?

Yes, I bought it as is. Plan is to rebuild it.
The accident happened in Florida somewhere. Supposedly during a test drive when a dealership had it for sale.
Appreciate that. The wheels are for sale if you're interested.
Does anyone recognize or know anything about this Glass 32. I believe it was built in or near PawPaw Michigan. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
I'm wondering how you made out with your project. I'm looking at making "hard lines" to go from a new condenser in front of the radiator to a spot...
Thanks.
How tight (or loose) should poly four bar bushings be? I bought a new set and when they're inserted in the bar ends with the steel sleeve in place...
I did a search for the product. It's interesting that the only place you can purchase Pro-Blend 1720 is at Speedway and Boteler Racing Products.
It's in a fairly transparent plastic bottle. It's a squeeze top dispenser, like a ketchup bottle. I can't see that anythings settled out. It is...

Does anyone have any experience with the anti seize product sold by Speedway? I have used the Permatex regularly fit many years. I ordered this...
I just tried. I get a message stating that email address is no good.
Has anyone had a custom aluminum radiator made for a 1933 Plymouth PD Coupe with a Small Block Chevy? I'd like to get a referral to a radiator...
You are right with the dimension. I was thinking the hole would be 1/8" to 1/4" smaller than the stud. I had the decimal in the wrong place in my...
I really appreciate your response. I got the drums off the hubs. Now I have to ask for clarification on the size of the hole for the new studs....
I got them apart. Here's a photo of the back side of each.
Thanks! I called Sid and hooked up with Joe. Both sound like they know the right way of doing things.
Thanks for the reply. I didn't take any of the back. But I will on Tuesday and post it.
Can anyone identify what these hub/drum assemblies are from? Are they separable? I'd like to remove the drums and use the hubs with an MT brake...
I talked to Sid. Yes he is the real deal. He'll tell you that he doesn't drop the '28 to '36 Ford car axles. He referred me to Joe at Joe's Speed...
I am mainly puzzled by what I am seeing in regards to the Spring Perch hole width on remanufactured axles. Every reference I find tells me that...
