Projects A New Can of Beans

It really does seem feasible to get it to the drags with what’s already there and the drivetrain sitting in his garage I think.

I’ll post some renderings later but here’s a link to a pod cast that jimmy talks about the Crosley history and the engine that it previously ran

There’s a player on that page you just click it

 

I like different
making a 32 look cool is easy
do it to a Crosley....now tha'ts something

 

Food for thought. HRP

 

Would only kill one hood.

 

Did someone say it'll be done for Mokan?
GO Beaner Go!
Tim will come and help.

Super cool

 

oh yea I forgot that say something about that too lmao

 

@Tim this is pretty rad!

 

Rich and Danny (@HOTRODPRIMER ) it amazes me how many of these were streamliners. In both lakes trim and drag trim.

@flamedabone I am rings and valve seals away from my overhaul to the Timex motor. Easy peezy a quick thrash and she's ready for another 20 years of fun. They are telling me that I am going to need a scatter shield, I got a cast iron bell housing and I am not sure what the actual ruling on that is. Maybe someone will chime in.

Tires and some nickel dime stuff and she should be ready to rumble.

 

What kind of rings you need?
I may have some seals and gaskets.

This is the only pic I have seen of this Hotrod and these Crosleys have a lot in common with the Willys Coupes
as in they were born to race it seems and really look cool doing it...Congratulations and good luck on your build @porknbeaner

Hey I saw your Avitar in a blog post by Ryan recently with Kevin Lees roadster. Is that you?

Any info as to the 36 Ford truck in the first picture?

 

P'nB- I have a pair of Homelite engines, , should you want to bump up to a whopping 59CU!!!

OR you could go tandem and get to 118- heck, you could cast a new crankcase to accept a pair of top castings and make yourself a V8 Crosley

A guy by me has a bunch of them, all stock too. He even has a wagon. Really cool little cars.

 

What a great project.
I like it. Great find Beaner.

I built this model years and years ago.

 

Since no one else has asked, what happened to the Model A that was in your garage? Did I miss the finish story on it?

Very first post. Second paragraph. In bright red.

 

Great project Beaner, I saw the thread on the other half of this.

Cant wait to see more.

 

Amazing find and cant wait to see you on the track again.
Always love these since watching "Cool Hand Luke" rumble through the first HAMB Drags.

 

Fixed it for you -

 

Thanks Tim.
