Oops...missed the pic.
Not just the Ford can keep the stock grill. :)
I figured on following Potters main suggestions. Intake, Comp cam, new springs and rockers plus some mild head work and call it good.
I figured part of the changes were due to the government stuff. I'm just wondering if anyone knows if there were more changes beyond that. I just...
This shows the various HP output per year.... but does anyone know what the changes are that dropped the power so much from 70 (400hp) to 72...
I have one of these going on Ebay tomorrow.... starting bid at $999 if anyone is looking for one.
Here's the car with the Cragar Street Pro's. (crappy cell phone pic) Went with a 15x6 front and 15x8 rear. Wanted the 15x10, but the offset wasn't...
Well... I just discovered something that may make up my mind. The first pic I posted of the Cragar "halibrand" knockoff is of the 17" wheel. The...
No... not feeling those either. Again..just too many of them in the 70's..must have jaded me ;). I've REALLY tried hard to like the Radir's,...
Just as Slammed said.. they were on EVERYTHING in the 70's. I wasn't old enough to remember the styles of the actual 60's... but I was a "car kid"...
These particular big wheels rub up front... so they have to go. I want to pull them off while they still have the nubs on the tires. PLUS... I...
I had originally planned on doing those.. but the company is just a flake.
I'm still leaning towards the Rocket Igniters (first wheel). If I went with the Cragars... I think I'de do the chrome ones. I'll most likely go...
I can get a heck of a deal on a set of these with Black centers.... $350 for all 4. American Racing smoothies. I think I'de stay with blackwalls...
No chance of me running the thinner whitewalls... totally not a fan of that look. Not a fan of the cragar 5 spoke either...too 70's looking to me....
What do you mean "stripes"?
Want to change the wheels on my wagon to something a bit "older looking" hotrod. Liking these 2 wheels so far... just getting opinions. (I've also...
I flew into PHX. to buy a 60 chevy wagon. Had spoken with the place selling it for 3 weeks..making sure all was as advertised. Got there, went to...
Got any pics? What's Crazy Rays...wrecking yard?
I drove a stock 31 sedan almost daily for a year or so a few years back. Wasn't too bad really.... Once you resign yourself to the fact you aren't...
^^^^That is the way to look at it. If you don't mind moving on to something else and the money from the vette will help..trade him. If you...
With our big steel dash's... I'de rather risk a shoulder injury than a face full of non-collapsing steering wheel or steel dashboard. I think that...
If you mean you turned the lower belt mount around to face up/back rather than down/foward... I did the same thing on my last 59, so it was a...
Here's some installs on somewhat similiar cars that I just found- 55 Chevy install-- http://www.julianos.com/how2_55chev.html 56 Ford...
That's definitely the reason I'm looking into them. I've seen kits for them, but never one installed. Wondering how it looks and what needed to be...
Just picked up a 59 wagon, needs seat belts. I'm wondering if any of you have done belts with the shoulder strap, and if so..got any installed pics?
On this same note.... is it like registering anything else? Normally I just walk in with the ca. title of what I just bought, pay the fees and...
Here's mine...driven pretty much daily since I got it. 31,000 miles, original paint and interior. 6cyl, stick. [IMG] [IMG]
The '37 has a 3 duece 283 in it now....I've been tossing around the idea of someday putting it in the 59 and making the '37 electric...:eek:
