The Jalopy Journal
Glad to see you are still going with this. If you get a chance, could you please post the outside width of the frame?
Loving this build, look forward to seeing you back on it. The late twenties Essex frames came stock with stiffeners that look a lot like that and...
Looking good! I was looking for some epoxy primer recently and came across "HB Body 989". When I searched for reviews on it I came across a...
Check out this old post I did on the same subject from a few years ago which explains how to make a real simple model from a strip of cardboard so...
Another option is to mix a small batch of epoxy primer and use a small disposable foam roller to apply it.
I made a disassembly tool using a short piece of hex-bar - just file the cross in the end and put a spanner on it too undo. It seemed to help to...

Flat-top Mallory from a 429 Ford adapted to Model A banger
Interesting update, thanks! Looks like it's got 34 hood sides in the old photo's as well.
Looking good! Here is another thread you might want to check out for a tube space-frame T-modified ......
Haha - looks like Chris already knows what to do with it :D In that thread you linked to about a very similar 3-window, he said "I'd leave that...
Shifter mount for the trans tail-shaft?
Yep, that is one of the versions of Davie Thomas '34 pickup from New Zealand. It was originally a late-sixties build with flathead, and was later...
I am pretty sure that photo is a New Zealand car called Exterminator from the early 70's
Here is a link to the Chassis Engineering bolt-on adaptor for a GM Steering box into a 37-40 Ford, and it looks like the holes are a far way...
They were probably produced LHD for Europe. The front axles on the Fordson is interesting as well - they take Model A/V8 size kingpins, but are...
I am pretty sure that the pedal pad I had was a tapered thread - I'll see if I can find it and check it out. Edit -found this old thread from...
Loving this build, and looking forward to the Dean Lowe RPU build as well. I am not sure if they all are, but some of the early Ford pedal pads...
Pretty sure you won't be able to use the 327 crank with that block. I have only heard of 62 and up 283 blocks having the extra clearance (the 327...
I had to do a similar repair to my dash. It was only missing a couple of inches of the lower rail, but it was pretty easy to make that piece from...
Yeah definitely - was great to see it there!
Yep, that's them. Thanks!
Was that from Deuce Farm, or somewhere else? I am thinking about getting a new one for my Tudor cos the repro one I have doesn't fit very well.
I saw this pic on Cyclone Kevin's thread, and thought it should be re-posted here ... The proportions look great when you see it with the...
That's awesome - been watching the thread since the beginning and real glad you made it!!
Yep, I have come across that when trying to put a small flex-plate on an early 283. If that is the OP's problem, it is pretty simple to make a...
Also, I thought by the time that the 327 came out in '62 that the blocks were all drilled for a block mount starter?
I have seen kits that relocate the starter to the oil filter pad, like this one ... http://www.hylube.com/products/msrkit.htm
That port will be fine for the vacuum modulator - it is connected internally below the throttle blades and will have full manifold vacuum. Here...
