JMO. The engine makes it off topic but we are talking about an early 60's traditional ENGLISH hotrod. I say do not close the thread, ignore the...
Larger wheel cylinder will make the 11 inch drums add stopping power. I had assumed the same wheel cylinder.
Will not change your braking power unless you increase the force. P=F/A P=Pressure F=Force A=Contact area You would be increasing the contact...
And a cheap bottle of champagne to smash over the grill.
Looks just like the ones on my 38 minus the rust.
They are either 36, 37 or 38 low cab doors. There were changes from 36 to 38, grille, location of fuel filler from under seat to right side...

Another vote for the Miller 211, runs off 110 or 220. Welds well on both inputs. Excellent machine that I wasn't sure I would like, ended up...

Why do I feel like dying an extra, extra large egg and then barfing it back up?
So easy to change a jet in a 97 why use an adjustable one that you can never be sure is an exact match from barrel to barrel?
Luckily us seasoned fellows can afford to win in court once our asses are supposedly beat! Wood is your friend and when you are done mocking up...
Now that is some funny shit right there! I had a 68 Dodge truck with lug nuts like that when I was 15. I must have spent half a day trying to...
Inert gas means no oxygen. CO2 is not inert, C=carbon dioxide, O = oxygen Argon is and so is Helium. Any mix gas with an O in it is not...
I am going to go mow my pasture this afternoon just to see what pops up. With my luck it will be a coperhead or a moccasin.

Wow, love the second floor find. One of my all time favorite Fords. Now to go look for a barn and hope!
Hmmm, single seater. I prefer a two holer so I can put my arm around my wife while we cruise along the boardwalk. Thinking out loud here if...
