Like to add my name here. Keeps logging me out also, happening constanstly not just once or twice. Thought it was my computer but its doing it...
Ha! Don't think I'd attack the hill with skirts on.
The skirts were dusted down and tried back on the car. All the mounting points had already been fitted from the build. Just need to add to the...
Custom? :D [IMG] ... Then we got silly and started trying them on everything. [IMG]
These were posted on the FlatCad Racing thread by RDR. Pictures from Albert Drakes book, "Portland Pictorial: The 1950s". I thought they...
That is a major transformation from the infamous car you started with! Well done.
Thanks for the comments. Its still a rolling project. It needs hubcaps. The flippers should go back on but need straightening and rechroming...
Paint, paint, paint! :D I couldn't stand that horrible yellow primer no more. [IMG] [IMG] Made progress on the interior. Dash is in...
This car recently sold here at auction. http://www.historics.co.uk/previous-auctions/3rd-march-2011/1946-ford-super-deluxe.aspx Its an ex-movie...
One of my favourites. I find myself constantly going back to it for inspiration for my own '36. Its exciting to think that this car will hopefully...
Do you have the rear corner brackets on the chassis? These? [img] [img] The top hole in the bracket is the furthest rear body mount...
Well done. Sounding good.
Now that is a simple way of doing it!
Curious of your mod to the F100 fuel filler.
Couple of points. The brakes need to wound completely off. The slightest amount of contact with the shoes will make the drum almost impossible...
With the car back at home I have been able to plug away at all the jobs that needed starting and finishing. [IMG] THAT bonnet which caused...
7 months for a few books is a joke and an all to common occurance with this outfit.
Great pics from Rodncustom. Its rare to see rear shots. So it isn't just the the Ricers that have silly exhausts! Is it just me or do most of...
Where'd you get the wire hose clamps from?
Another thumbs up from me for the Filter Kings. They ain't no $175! The most expensive is around $100. They come in many different combinations...
Bob drake does the hinges and the gaskets. The gaskets are heavy paper as original. You won't get and shouldn't mount hinges on rubber as the...
Its a powergen. I understand I might have to re-route the water pipe but with the generator in position it will be sitting right over the rad inlet.
I've just tried the other style generator mount and now its sits the generator too far the other way! It now sits on top of the radiator inlet and...
A few months back I got bored and started playing around with a different set of wheels. The story starts years ago back on another forum. One...
I've just tried to fit up my offset generator mount for the first time in my stock '36 engine bay and it doesn't fit. The generator comes into...
Blue50-F1 got me thinking (And Searching) that I hadn't updated this thread since July! Alot has happened since and the car has been on the...
Hi Mike, Glad to see you finally chime in on this thread. The photoshops look great. I would love to see more of them if you have them. The...
Well seems like I'm going to have to justify myself with this one. LOL The pictures are MY hood and this is the first time I've seen them stamped...
Really cool to see this thread appear. We all know the Spencer Roadster, but the last build for the La Carrera Panamericana is fascinating and...
Good talking with you earlier. Look forward to the buildup.
