I am guessing a 1938 International Harvester, or close to that. [img]
Nothing as old as most of you guys, but I have 2 in the garage. First is a 1963 Grand Prix. 421, tripower and a 4 speed. [img] Second, a 1964...

Very nice. I love HJs made up in an early 60s gasser stance.
Why not grab a 4.6L OHV V-8, OD transmission, wiring harness and PCM out of a late model wrecking yard Mustang?
This was during the "Wide Track" years. The other GM B body frames won't work on the Pontiac. I think that changed in '65.
Aluminum rotors can stand up to quite a bit of abuse. Wilwood makes aluminum racing rotors, they wouldn't sell if they could not "take the heat"....
I am surprised you guys don't play Bull Shit Bingo! When we go to a cruise as a group we try to make game cards. You make an 8 x 8 grid on the...

16/17. Damn poly head Chryslers.
