Like to make it this year... we will see! By the way, have you ever heard of the "Rapid Tappets" from Abilene? Found this plaque today and thought...
Using a 1935 rear end with some weld on shackle holders (puts spring on top of rearend). Also using 1946 rear brakes. Looks like I should have...
Pic!
Can someone tell me what part# 44772-s and 351467-s are? Where can I get these or what do they look like? Thanks.
Momma gets the credit for the lawn and she says thanks! My brother-in-law gave these to me, thinking they were Ford! I have no plans for them and...
Can someone tell me what this hood and grill shell are off of? Thanks in advance!
LTD? Ya think? Maybe a 1968 ford falcon!
Can someone tell me what this hubcap is off of? Thanks in advance!
The cop car is not mine!
Call Ray at shoeboxford.com. He is in OKC.
Where can I buy some trim clips for the qrt. windows and doors? I am refering to the thin stainless trim that shows from the outside of the car....
Hope this helps.
How about that award you won Plowboy? That was pretty cool, over 400 cars and your truck is one of the 17 picked for an award!
Koppa K, the headlights look good in the picture. I think they would be cool, but for now, I am going to try and fix what I have. I do thank you...
Hey Slide, thanks for the info. I will do some "homework" and see what I can figure out.
This may sound dumb, but what if I used a 10" model A headlight? No headlight bezal, just a big ass headlight. Sink the headlight 1/2" deep, so...
Just to clear up my last post. The picture of the rear is just showing where the idia for the headlights came from. I like the look of the rear,...
Should I leave the edge sharp or round it a bit? Just cleaning up the welds might make it look better. The original idia was to make the headlight...
Last two!
Some more pictures!
I am having trouble getting the headlight bezel to fit on the drivers side due to welding shrinkage. Do I fix it and stay with the look I have...
I am trying to run 5/16" hard line from the fuel pump to the carb (I plan on running the same from the fuel tank to the firewall). I am having...
Thanks for the reply. Is this information in a book somewhere or are you really good with Ford part #'s? I have alot of parts like this and would...
I have some new (old stock) Ford rear main crankshaft bearings. I need help researching some part #'s. I did some lookin' but had no luck. Here...
Very cool pictures you have there. If you don't mind me asking, are you planning on building one of these cars or are you just diggin' the kustoms...
I am glad you said something about the front fenders and bumper fitment. I guess I should mount them while doing the shimming of the body.
New rockers and front quarters. Floor is stock and in very good condition. I guess all I can do now is follow your suggestion. Thanks for your time.
It looked so easy. Just put the pads down and put the body back on. Every thing is still stock, so it should fit right back on and bolt down. Not...
I have a 1950 Ford 2dr. Sedan. I bought the body pad kit from Carpenter. I set the pads on the frame, as the instructions listed. When I set the...
Thanks for the information. Sounds like the average is around $35 - $40 per hour.
