With all the experience on this forum, there have got to be some guys who can give some input to this thread. ...
I wanted to pass this question around and see what the consensus was as to how much a "rebuilt", a "running", and a "rebuildable" flathead ford...
Welcome aboard, always nice to have another navy pilot around.
Recovered the seats with some red canvas and redid the padding for a little more comfort on long trips. [IMG] This shot shows the floor pan...
Cut out the old sheetmetal floor and welded in a subframe of 1" square tube. Layed 1/2" expanded metal sheet for a floorpan (great for air flow,...
Thanks, I made a template out of sheetmetal and then laid out the patterns and cut them with a plasma cutter. I left the jagged edges from the...
My bad ass chic of a wife came across those while browsing egay for valve covers for her truck. I've never seen any like them and thought they...
I've found a small amount of time (and even less money) to do some work on the '29 5-Window, so I thought I'd take a minute and post the progress....
The skirts look killer, don't change a thing.
Looks pretty bad ass to me. Don't listen to your friends, drive it every chance you get. Just start out around the block, so that the broken drive...
So I finally got some time to start playing the 1949 Fleetline . Wanted to see just how much travel the suspension had before it bottomed out...
Lookin real good man, sorry to hear that you couldn't take it to Austin. Shoot me a PM some time, I've got an 'A' too and I've been looking to...
Nice catch. Once I got her runnin, I wouldn't change a thing.
It's a total roll of the dice around here. I'd say that 1 in 10 employees is not a complete moron, but it's been a while since I found a parts...
I'm looking to cut the coils on my '49 Fleetline as much as possible and not quite ride on the bump stops. How many inches of drop did 1 1/2...
I'd say it's coming along real nice. You've got a good start. Good luck
Looks real nice. I know how excited you must be. and just in time for cruisin season.
That intake setup looks great, but what the hell is it?
A whole world of difference. I think you would have heard some snickers behind your back had you showed up with it the way you found it. You got...
Just sold my chopper and picked up a new project. The bike wasn't very family friendly, so I figured I'd put together a Family Cruiser that would...
So how much drop did you actually end up with? I just picked up a '49 Fleetline that I need to put on its ass, but with no time or money for...
Now that's a sweet history. Congrats on still owning a vehicle with that much sentimental value. We can't wait to see it back on the road and then...
Yep, I brought the wife and kids in my wife's 66 Pickup and I brought the '29. We make it out there once or twice a month. I like that it is...
I got some holley 94 parts from them over the last few weeks, 2 orders. I had a tough time getting them on the phone too. I left them a message...
Thanks for the replies so far. It's looking to me like you guys think it's a worthy scooter. So I'm thinking it would be ok to post for a trade...
