Thanks for the reply Bruce! I actually have a vented cap, and I epoxied the center hole closed. I assume that I am not getting a good seal...
I really like the mustang tank install, and would like to do the conversion over the winter. I could really use the ground clearance. My car...
I called tanks inc, and they said that they only had a twist on cap for 1932-48 that was non-vented that fits 2-19/32 filler necks. Does anyone...
I have a 1949 Ford Shoebox, and I relocated the gas filler to inside the trunk. I vented the fuel filler neck to a vent valve under the trunk...
Thanks for the info. I called acme auto, and they asked me if I was an upholstery shop and when I told them I was an individual they said it...
I am looking for someone that sells a headliner for a 1949 tudor sedan in either white or black. I found that Mac's sells them in a few colors,...
Looking good Dave!
TTT. Swap meet is this Sunday, May 1, 2011. We have a spot in the second row near the buyer's entrance.
Thanks!
Great tech! What did you use to make the square hole larger before welding?
Lots of good info here: www.shoeboxford.com
The 49 and 51 hoods use different hinges. The 49 hinges are junk. I believe you can take the brace out of your 51 hood, swap it into the 49...
Me too. Your website is awful to navigate.
Looks pretty good from here, but I was wondering about the windshield too. Please don't say lexan.....
I would recommend leaving the factory frame, and adding a fatman frame stub with mustang II. The factory rear can work if you aren't throwing a...
Look at older posts by dodgerodder. He has several build up threads of his 4 door. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60680
I agree. Mine needed both quarters replaced, and EMS wanted around $600 plus shipping, and the rockers are over $200 plus shipping. I ended up...
Well, the cross shaft is definitely not MII. Any body else know?
I was hoping that the Hamb could identify these upper control arms. My '49 has a fatman MII front clip, and these arms were on the car when I...
I just finished mini-tubbing my future street/strip 64 fairlane, and I need to order some axles/wheels/tires to finish out my rear axle. I have...
I am working on putting a rear firewall in my 64 fairlane, and I was curious if you need to put sheetmetal inbetween the outside of the wheel...
I mostly use my 3200 for sheetmetal, and it works very well for that purpose. It welds 18 and 20 gauge beautifully when using shielding gas.
I have the Lincoln 110V 3200HD mig at the house and I love it. I have had it for about 6 years now and it has worked extremely well. The machine...
Thanks for the Pic's Monsterflake. I do like the look of the rockets. My only concern is that I have disc's up front and as I recall the hub...
I have a 1964 Fairlane 2 dr hardtop that I am currently working on. I am finishing my subframe connectors and about to start on the minitub, and...
Looks good. I have a 64 fairlane 2 dr hardtop I am working on, and I am around the corner from you guy in St. Charles.
Are you going to repeat the process with the front wheel wells? It looks out of proportion to me with fronts taller than the rears.
Are you going to change the column mount? Are you going to put a shroud on the column to cover the mount, wiring, etc? My car came with a 70's...
Both!
Here are a couple of links to sites that I have found very helpful. http://www.fordmuscle.com/forums/fairlane-pages/...
