Just think, in 53 12 volt parts were not common yet. Who would want to "upgrade" their car with a system that just hit the scene and wasn't really...

Just had 2" stainless run from the bottom of lake pipes, under the car to a pair of Smithy's mufflers and out the back of a 32 ford for $300 for...
I am going a different direction and totally rebuilding my A from the frame up so I am putting my body and radiator up for sale. The body is rough...
40-42 have eccentrics on the bottom of the shoes for a finer adjustment. 46-48 are cotter pined on bottom, with no adjustment there. 39 I believe...
I have to say I don't hate it.

We were at the blue palms last year and plan on staying there again. Very nice place and cheaper than some of the other hotels.
Those ultra sonic cleaners are amazing. My old man got one and I put in a carb that was recently "cleaned". Used straight simple green and you...
Will take $200 for the intake alone
Ford used the two piece driveshaft ad far back as 1930 in their larger trucks. Nothing new.
I am running original 6v. Its still the original wiring setup and was planning on changing the ignition circuit this winter. It seem screwy the...
I've been using the condenser for a 50 Ford. It's stock 6v and is the same size and wire length as the original Mallory condenser I got. I just...
Does anyone know where to get the most reliable condenser for a Mallory dual point banger distributor? Mines blowing the ones I've been using out...
Btt may trade for banger parts too
I pulled mine from a 30 year storage and blamed that for it. I sold the car before I got around to resealing it. The trans still worked like a...
I had a 53 Olds with the original hydro in it. Damn thing leaked everywhere!
And I'm subscribed. Was just caught by the local traffic police doing power slides in the banger A this morning.
I've got an old Mallory dual point on my banger. Keeps burning up coils and condensers. Might be the dumb way ford runs the ignition.
The Zephyr v12 I take care of has the dual tube coil conversion on it. The top conversion plate is also clear so you can watch the rotors spin.
Mines not as shiny as everyone elses but still on an A frame with the original banger. Remaking the body this winter once I finally stop driving...
I cant seem to wrap my mind around this. You want to convert a v12 distributor to a v8?

I'm building a new body for my daily driver A this winter. Going for early to mid 20s style. Should be more than appropriate.
Finally getting some more work on my rpu driver so I'm gonna subscribe here.
If it ran great why change it?
http://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/867 I always use these. Once pressed in the bushings constrict and become tighter. Sometimes you need to ream...
Then why do they make these? http://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/860 Lincolns had them factory.
Make sure you clean up the leafs nicely and grease them before putting them back together. It makes a world of difference in your ride. I took...
I added a set of the pure hot rods ones to the rear of a 35 convertible sedan. We kept the original shocks on and located the new mounts to the...
