Flathead Pic Request - show me your flaty's and engine bays

Hey Crew,

One of the things that ****s me most about my ride is the dogs breakfast in the open engine bay. Wires, gaffer tape, fuel hose, there is **** everywhere. Was wondering if you could post some pics of flatheads in open engine bays (hoodless roadsters, coupes etc) im looking for ideas on how to route the wiring for the front end as well as the fuel system. I'll be running a mech fuel pump as well so looking for neat ideas there.

Thanks!!!

Danny

 

No one does a better job of flathead engine compartments than these two, Vern Tardel . . .




. . . and Rudy Rodriguez.

 

hey mate,

thanks for the pics, they look great. I think I have some rewiring to do in order to get mine that clean...

Afters seeing these two I really want to do something to mine, they are just mind blowing! Gotta love a well dressed flatty....

 

here are some pretty bad pics of my motor,
I am no vern the burn or rudy.

 

Here is Ian Splatt's '27 T

 

some of these may have come from here.....

some of the best ones were too large....

 

man every time i think about orderin up a set of aluminum heads for my 8ba i see another clean as hell motor with the stock cast heads and rethink things a bit... nice mills all of em but there is something about the simple look of Henry's own castings aint there?

 

Heres mine

 

this was at the rumblers nyc show last year

 

Hey Guys,

Thanks to everyone that posted - much appreciated!!!

Danny

 

Awesome looking motors, thanks. Don't know how to post but my engine was posted on the Ford Flathead site, so I must have did a pretty good job. I'm no Vern Tardel though.

 

Wow - I gotta get working on mine - to bad I don't have the funds to do anything to it. Hell - still gotta rip it a part and see if it's anygood. I'm saving it for a model A sedan - still need an engine for my 38 dodge.

Good topic - great pics!

Anyone know what the color on the Rudy Rodriguez motor is?

 

It looks to me like the factory bronze engine color found on a 1950 Ford Sedan.

 

Mine on my coupe!

 

Fill me in on this special engine...
