There are a few people who aren't afraid of a little rain! They can't be the only ones! It for a good cause, after all!!!
Today
12 hours to the start of the event!
BTTT. Even though it will probably be raining, people have still got to eat. Let's get some real drivers out in the parking lot, then pop...

Those books will just confuse you more! There are no known books that cover the FE casting numbers with any accuracy when it comes to blocks and...
I had one very similiar to that a few years back. Mine had a business card glassed into the underside. I think it was Ai or A&A? Can't remember...
As others have said, the 62-63 hood has a different leading edge. I wanted a tear drop hood on my 61 wagon too, so I had to make one, just like 61...
I grew up in SD too. Pretty sure Performance was a Datsun/Nissan dealer. Regardless, that's a cool frame.
Like the others have said, a 65 truck should already have ifs in the form of twin I-beams. Nothing wrong with that design, simple and rugged, good...
Ricks Machine Shop on Woodside Avenue in Santee. Old family friend, and a Ford guy to boot.
Will the horn button look right side up when you're viewing it down under?
I think I might have to dust off my heap and join in on this.
Use the thickest cork gaskets you can find. Fel Pro's are pretty good. Mr Gaskets are paper thin, avoid those. DSC Motorsports sells a really...
Those heads should be fine for a low rpm interstate cruiser. Small ports to keep velocity up. Cam it accordingly, it should last for a long time...
Those Thumper cams were designed for giving a radical idle, not performance or economy. They are fair ground cams. They get the sound through lots...
I'd keep the Plymouth. I think it's cool, and given the family history, sounds like a no brainer. Find a seat for the back, and you've got room...

Thanks for the pics and the chow, Kevin, not to mention the 15 minutes of fame, ha ha. Keep an eye on your mailbox, when I get a chance I'll...
Haven't read the whole thread, so this has probably been covered, but I love the people who say 'they built it themselves', meaning they picked...
I've been going to this show since the first one, and have seen the ebb and flow in attendance, and it certainly seems that participation was up...
