I want to put a coolant overflow tank on my flathead powered '35 Ford pickup. I have a stock '35 rad w/ an unpressurized system that spits out...
With a V8 60 you will probably need pedal car assist to launch your rail unless it weighs less than 1K and you let a 8 year old drive it.
Those oil filters are not very effective (approx 10% effective) and can cause more problems (leaks) than they are worth. Unless you want one...
You might want to ebay the "vintage" racing door locks. Hey, the "ol' skool" heater deleat panel might bring some bucks! I love the motor mounts,...
About 2400 rpm w/ a 239 cid flatty (3:78 banjo & 31.5" tires). Great formula.....at least I know my 6V Sun tach is close.
Yea, the good ship "bargon swapper" always leaves me at the pier. The guy would have quoted me a price of $5K for the "T"! If I hear another...
Pickup nose w/o guard
A buddy of mine had his '35 Ford grill smashed by his wife's SUV (SUV - 1 / '35 Ford - 0). He has suggested that I put a hoop style grill guard on...
I'm running a stock '35 steering box & a set of Red's headers. They sit in real tight against the block to avoid steering box contact. I'm...
Well I finally got my flathead back onto the road again after a wet and soggy PNW winter. I installed new red plug wires with stainless looms...
I have Edelbrock heads on my 59A and the stock thermostats will not fit in the waternecks. I ran all last summer w/o restrictors or thermostats,...
I'm installing coolant flow restrictors on my flathead instead of thermostats. What size hole should I use? I've heard 1/4" up to 5/8"?!
How about a good safe place to park your car trailor?
I left my '35 Ford pickup 6V (+ ground) and am very satisfied with it's electrical performance (I do run a gel battery). I didn't need to run a...
I went with Edelbrock on my 59A. I think they look better and I know they are good quality. Besides I met Vic Jr @ the Portland Historic Races and...
I just bought a new set of red plug wires & stainless wire loom from Flathead Jack. They came as bulk wire with instrutions for the two piece...
What time are are going Chip? I'll be there about 2:30 with a couple of my buddies. Thanks for hooking me up with Mad Max, he did a great job with...
We need some more pictures Danny. I'll be there tonight & try not to get it wet with my drool.
It is cool from a performance standpoint, but pretty bland looking. It's just another jellybean rolling down the road, and it's an import to boot!...
You can buy a good quality repop for around $150. Originals go for $50 on up depending on condition.
I think I just wet myself! Danny should do your seat in mauve pho-fur. Then you could come down to gayville (Portland) and get married to your...
