    Here are some new pics.


    The motor is a model B with a Hal single cam head with Winfield C carbs mated to a C4.


    The wagon I found at Turlock this year. Dig that crazy cast aluminum windshield.

    Bobby,

    That's some great craftsmanship you're doing there. Awesome that your building this. If this tank see's any action like your roadster, maybe the "Poontank"? Look forward to seeing more pics, Thanks for the updates too!

    Hi Bobby...How is the P38 tank coming? Ol Deuce

    Could you explain some of the drive train components. What is the transmission and the engine modifications? The car looks good.
     

  21. There are a dozen threads on the Old Crow. Do a search. Some of those answers are in this thread. Others are fluid, engine changes from year to year.

  23. I found a tank in Rapid City which is by an air base. The guy said he would give me $100 to haul it off his property. I am going to go retrieve it in a couple of weeks. I am thinking early hemi or flathead.
