Petejoe, I'm in the exact same boat, I've assumed ownership of a car & drivetrain exactly like yours. My bro bought my car (Fiddy Ford coupe)...
UGH! That sucks. I've noticed that this hobby is full of that kind of shit. Kind of like owning a boat $$$$. Upside, at least when you are done...
Lol, that's some funny shit there!
Would consider trading 3 (69 Falcon, 50 custom coupe, 53 F100) for a decent 33 or 34 5 window.
$350 worth of parts from Shoebox Central. A good Xmas in my book.
At best I'm a new parts replacer, didnt think of that, I'll check it out. Was trying to use blind nuts that are originally on lower control arm....
Really thought this would be a quick answer. When reading through the posts concerning Aerostar springs, it seemed everybody with a Shoebox was...
Don't normally let anyone drive my car. My good friend & an incredibly good mechanic asked if he could borrow my car to take his brother &...
Up here you throw a chartreuse colored jig in front of a Walleye & you'll know that color for ever.
Haters got to hate.): Beautiful car!
The fire truck beside it is pretty cool too.
Is this a Henry J or Allstate?
That is one well worn shoe!
I would actually have to add (weld) material to the shock (#5821) to make it work.
It's always a good time for "Eh"
Nice truck, good on ya!
At the risk of sounding like a lazy shit, I thought I'd post this question to the group. The original post for the Aerostar spring conversion has...
I've already bought the 5821 shocks & the bolt slots for bottom mount don't match up. The bolt holes on shock are to narrow to fit bolt holes...
I have spent a fair amount of time trying to find out which front shock to use when using Aerostar coil springs. Shock # 5821 is referred to in...
Many hours of chasing parts all over the place with these. Then my mom giving me shit for all the dents in the walls & base boards. The cat...
Not tri-y, equal length long tubes. Mine is a 69.
I vote for the Ford drive train but I think that little car needs a third pedal. Again, cool car, wish it was in my garage! Ps. The C4 will take a...
Not sure about fenderwell headers but FPA(Ford Powertrain Applications) had a set of long tubes that fit snug & right in my o/t Falcon. Easy to...
Both of my early car experiences were acronyms, AMT & AFX.
Yes on my o/t, but that was before renovations. That wouldn't fly now. Thankfully my garage now has heat
I FOR ONE AM GLAD YOU STUCK AROUND!
Nice collection of Effies!
[ATTACH] I always thought the Edsel grille(horse collar) would look good on a Hot Rod, I was right. Looks good.
In a creek bed:)
