So yesterday I hop on the 10 freeway at Francisquito & shoot over to Glendale. A couple onramps ahead I see this cherry finished chopped yellow 33/34 ford 3 window, SBC, & yellow grille with metal insert, in the slow lane. "Cool, A fellow HotRodder". I give it some gas & jump over from the fast lane right to the side of him, Rev him a couple times & jump back over to the fast lane, Obnoxiously as I can. I must have imbarased him. All the waY down the 10 until the 5, he stood about a block behind me, we should have cruised that freeway in a pack, even if it's 2. The Fucker!!!
MATA, Let me see if I have this straight, First, Clean the skull in the fuel bowl, next fill the radiator with water (again !), tighten bole on dizzie that you can't find ! Then, retorque the head for fourteenth time. Recheck timing gear. gas her up.....bang, bang, bang ! we're ready to roll the hiway. Right ? Good post, I like the way YOU Think !!!!! Oh, get the headlight working.........,.,, I wrecked Mine because I let Dark catch me and watchin' an approching car, let the right front wheel drop off the steep shoulder. And that was Me in the yellow coupe, I's afraid sumthin' might fly of your's so I stayed back......., Keep posting, Keep Me amused. Thanks
If anyone has been west on the 10 freeway from Pomona Swap Meet, 3 or 4 exits, there's a big Hill that slows down alot of cars, the slower cars move right, But the Fricken A . . . . . . . It does alright. I usually ride the #2 lane (2nd fastest), maybe #3, but I'm not the slowest & I'm passing the big trucks & slower cars. The Fricken A Does Alright, many are surprised.
MY MAN!!! I dig it Homie. IDEA: Find a mid 50's or earlier Ford Hood & cut it down similar to a 23T turtle deck.
Im off to LIMEWORK Open House. SoCal Tomorrow then Waldens after. If any HAMBrs see the Friken A, post some pix here, Yeah? See you'll at the SHOWS!!!
LimeWorks was the shit!! Its the show that starts off the Fathers Day HotRod weekend here LA, well San Gabriel Valley mainly, on Thursday! I took off from work about 11 picked me up a "Drink" from 7-11 & got front row parking at the show, I didn't want to get blocked in, I was on my lunch break from work. Fucken Steve had some good looking taco ladies serving free tacos w/ beans & rice & drinks. Had a Bitchen HAMBr Meet & Greet, finished my "Drink", feeling good . . . . Oh shit, I had to go back to work. 2-clock I'm back at work eating a togo taco plate from LimeWork. LimeWorks Rocks!!! Hey, I made the website!! Maybe I should have washed my car?
I'm Up & Bang'N! Again. Engine#3. I got it running last night. After taking out Engine#1 out cause it was more than just a blown headgasket witch I just put in after I broke Engine#2 for driving with no oil. This Engine#3 was an old one too. After I cleaned it up & some High temp engine paint on a used headgasket, It runs like a champ. Yippy!!!!
