Anybody know what points are used in the Chevy V8 W&H? Thanks
Thank you very much!
Trying to locate anyone that was familiar with Marvin Watson. He ran a '32 roadster at the lakes in '48. If you have any information about times...
Finally got the whole thread to load. Good luck with the roadster.
Ken Crawford hasn't specified any issues with the restoration of his old roadster. Too bad Bill Likes isn't around to point out the issues here....
Roadsters produced within the first 2,000 cars (estimated to be about 200 roadsters at this point) were made in Dearborn. The tooling for the...
The louvers aren't the only things that stand out as not matching up to the old photos. The way the front fenders are cut is a litle different....
If nothing else closer becomes available p.m. me. I can do it, unfortunately I'm in Florida. Same louvers as used on the restored Crawford Stroner...
This thread is all about a guy asking for something specific. Info on 2 historic roadsters. He wasn't overpraising them. Just saying he likes the...
I am so low tech it isn't even funny. But I know the Henderson '32 like the back of my hand. Grew up in it. Restored it with my dad. Reunited Pete...
Jimmy, It was great to meet you. Thanks for posting those fantastic shots. Very few have noticed the F-1 mounts in back but you don't miss much...
Barry, Beautiful car. By the looks of the background I'm guessing the photo was at the 2009 Amelia show. If that is the case I recall the car....
I'm not throwing rocks at anybody. Read it all as light hearted banter but this is not my first Califormia excursion. I spent a lot of time...
Jimmy, Ken is making arrangements to come. It will be great to meet him in person for me too. Looking forward to meeting everybody. As for hot,...
We will be showing the Crawford/Stroner '32. It's only our second time showing there but I would sugest a fairly early time to meet up since it...
Hey guys, Looks like they want the Crawford/Stroner '32 after all. Hope to see y'all there. I'll be the guy with the other funny kind of accent....
There were definitely a few HAMBers in the last issue. Even on the cover. Hope the next issue is enjoyed by all. Also hope the binding is sorted...
Hang on everybody. Some HAMBers are in the next issue too and I think it will be a good one. Got a sort of preview. It should be back to the good...
My flathead Pounden is a 90 degree drive mag but the portion where the coil is is the same size. I'm sure that since the Chevy unit has no advance...
Tim, Please pardon my ignorance but what does the impulse coupler look like and where should I look for it.It was easy to determine that there was...
Thanks for all the mag info. I may run a dual coil in the Chevy powered daily driver then. The Potvin is an experimental grind that Chuck Potvin...
Well I took it apart. Other than needing a Wico coil and perhaps the magnets recharged it looks great inside. The drawback is that it has no...
I was told that there was some discussion on this car and thought I'd chime in. Dad and I did build the car for Ron Hartwell. He is from Mass. but...
I think Nads meant there is a Packard in the coupe that holds his heart which he still beats regularly. I've ridden in that 352 powered '34 and he...
Damn, that's true. This is all going into a deuce too, so I could reuse some knobs if it doesn't have an advance built in. I should tear it apart...
Guess I'd better chime in again. Nads ir correct about leading Del to us as a buyer. Thanks again old friend, as it allowed me to buy my roadster...
I have not been into the mag yet. I know the Chevy unit needs work because there is weak intermittent spark. Is there a way to add an advance if...
Ok. My question is for you guys who have experience running early mags on the street. I've seen some threads regarding Vertex mags but I have a...
I meant re-found this thread. Duh. As for build photos I have found some but most are on video as we did periodic updates rather than blow by blow...
Just found this thread. Gotta chime in. There are parts on Von Franco's coupe that were under the car but not when Pete Henderson owned it. The...
