### THIS is the first time I have heard of a 351 Cleveland called a BIG block. I have heard of the 400 "Cleveland" called a medium block, but...
### ONLY way to fly. I ALMOST built a 32 Chev sedan a few years ago with a Ford 351, but changed my mind as it would STILL be a Chuvorlevit...
NICE setup. I am going to put a 400 in my 53 F100 Street Rod truck. I built a single 4 bbl tunnel ram intake for my late model stock car back in...
Oh, yes, I am from Scandinavia
Yes, I heard it is pretty good. I wanted to go last year, but I got sick in June and didn't start shaping up til October so missed it. Hopefully...
## Here in Wisconsin, TWO or more cars that are not licensed AND running, designates that you have a junkyard. ###
What you do when you "own" property is the right to pay taxes and sit on it. Other than that you own nothing. I am in Wisconsin too, and went...
ANYBODY, can you help me???
Hi Guys: I haven't been here in several months as I got real sick last summer and was totally laid up for over 4 months. I am back to working on...
Hi Guys: I don't know HOW to start a NEW thread. I haven't been here in several months as I got real sick last summer and was totally laid...
I agree. If you REALLY want to put a good drivetrain in your car/truck, besides the Ford 9" rear, why not put in a lighter, narrower, easier to...
Now THAT is what I call a BAD engine, the 300 six. I have owned two vehicles with them and they lasted no time. I know some people like them,...
I think the 400-c, or M if you will, is one of the BEST designs to ever come out of detroit. Sure every engine from Detroit can use SOME kind of...
WHY are you paying RENT on the bottles for oxy-acetylene? Lease them or buy outright. I have four bottles and never pay demurage. And yes,...
love it! ###
## Lucky: Maybe I should clarify it. I actually built what would be called a custom today, back in 59. A 51 Ford Victoria Hardtop. Spent...
Thanks Lucky77. MY idea of Streetrod is a vehicle I have built to drive on the street. Mine does have a custom frame, but I bought the cab,...
Boy, now I am even more confused????? If it isn't a streetrod site, and you have to stop at 64, just what kind of site is it exactly. I came to...
Hey, thanks for the scoop guys. I had no idea there was a cutoff on this group as far as years. I guess because my first thread was about my 53...
That is strange, I had a thread going about my 400 engine for my 53 streetrod pickup. IT is not traditional, AT ALL, either, but still a street...
I posted last night that I need a Steering box or sector for a 75 Ford F150 4x4, which is my current project, and the thread disappeared for some...
I only had trouble ONCE with swaying with a dolly. IT was a homemade dolly that I borrowed and had the car loaded backwards on it. THat was 22...
I don't drive like I used to, but still not like an old lady. Though THAT is the SMART way to drive with the prices of gas today. Jim. ###
PS; You are getting a LOT of distortion with your shots of it. Back off, and then use a zoom lens. Then you won't get all that distortion....
Sure with Photoshop you can do anything. I have for over ten years before I retired from my Photography Studio. I wouldn't put a hood on it...
I hauled all over the country for 4 years with an 89 E350 wedge bed I built and a tow dolly. That way I could haul two cars at a time. I hauled...
Bad Bob, looks nice and clean. You are right in that you can get decent mileage with them. I plan to only drive mine on nice days for fun, but a...
Looks cool, Moses. Reminds me of my first streetrod back in 1961. I turned a 30 coupe into a roadster, only it was red. I would do a lot of...
