You might just want to install the glass with urethane. It makes for a much better attachment and easy of install.
McMaster car has black ribbed matting. We used it in a 1928 Vauxhall we restored. It works good on flat floors. If you have a big trans hump it...
I love when the rebuilder looses your parts. What? they just throw out the parts to a job. I only leave them with what they need to machine....
I think Holley's custom shop still restores and reman's carburetors.
If you can't find anyone Fort Wayne clutch can build you a custom clutch or modify your flywheel.
You may want to add a electric fuel pump too. Sometimes you need to hold the throttle slightly open when it's hot.
Silver solder is very strong. Stainless wire will wreck you MIG hose liner. I'd go sliver solder. I've sliver solder custom tools and used an...
If you get it running you might be able to free it up. Sometimes when they're stuck you got to get them started in second and just rev the engine...
Sounds like the pressure plate is stuck to the friction disc and flywheel.
Maybe DHL if they're still around or call Fed Ex.
I was in an Autozone looking for a U-joint. Gave the gut the spicer number. A simple part 1977 Ford F-250 U-joint. The part is on his computer...
Duraglass works awesome.
I would get another 3rd member and get some 3:20 - 3:55 ratio gears. You wouldn't really notice any difference. Better highway rev's too
Many old cars had a "one shot oiler" This would lube the chassis. They had a foot pedal on some cars. Other had a little plunger lever under...
I'll check it out. Thanks
Thanks guys. Somebody made it into some sort of a cart or dolly trailer. Has a loop welded to the torque tube. Next time I'm over there I'll...
Sorry it didn't upload the first time round. It's there now.
I was doing some work for a friend and behind his shop was this rear axle. There was a beat up old Ford hub cap next to it. My question is?...
I got a pair of 1970 Dart Swingers for free. Both 318 autos with 8 3/4" rears. And a 360 engine with the deal too. I once got a 1972 Dart...
That's a good carb. I've had problems with the transfer tube o'rings leaking from the E85 gas. I would go on mcmaster carr and get viton o'rings.

I would just get the long drag race ones and cut them to length. Or maybe you could find something at a NAPA. I have a set of ARP's I think will...
Looks like a 292/312 Y-block. I'd get it. If it's to far gone you can always part it out.
Nothing sticks to POR 15 for long. Your paint will chip off forever. Been there done that. NFG! Use something else. Maybe the Eastwood stuff....
Great find. Glad your going to drive it. So many people would part a car like that out. Good luck finding cheap 331 or any early Hemi hot rod...
I think it would hold up. Being that your engine is mid front mounted a higher percentage of the weight is on the rear axle. I hope you have...
The smaller carburetors would give a good vacuum signal and run good up to 5000 rpm. For you truck you probably could go bigger but you probably...
It looks good. I love the wheels. I would just put a slightly wider rear axle in it. But who's to say. Just keep the pictures coming and rock...
I bought a car and watch as the mice jumped out of the car as my dad pulled out of the parking lot with the truck and trailer.
