This tranny was given to me for a rat rod project. Looks like a mid-'60s Ford, but I'm not a tranny guy. Side-mount shift, numbers on the ID...
Oh yeah... I'm not much of a biker... what's an organ donor or easter egg bike?
Great thread -- brought back a lot of memories from "back in the day" when you could pick up Novas for $200-$300 and part 'em out. Those front...
For my current project, I'm actually thinking about using a tank in back AND keeping the original tank as an auxilliary tank, for road trips. Just...
Thanks for posting the data. I always hate hearing someone say: "This happened to me, therefore, my experience applies to everyone, everywhere, at...
I burned a flannel shirt right off me, caught fire while I was running a grinder. Singed my eyebrows and hair. I was a kid .. live and learn....
It's all about who's running the store. Granted, you have a greater chance of finding idiots at the bargain chain stores, but any retailer that...
One of the good things about Georgia: no title hassles after 20 years.
I was planning to use a Vega cross-steer system on mine, but the rack and pinion cross-steering setup from Speedway has got me seriously...
OK, well, I guess here's the real question: I'm wanting to put a Fenton dual-carb intake on a 235 straight six Chevrolet. Is one BC better than...
I did a quick lookup on the 1157, 2057, and 2357. All three have the same outside dimensions: S-8 1" bulb. Pasadenahotrod's right: the 2357 is...
Were you using the LEDs or the 2057s?
They have a good selection of the LED 1157s: http://store.streetbeatcustoms.com/jam-strait-lighting-1157-wedge-bulbs-economy.html
Anyone have the part number and application data (vehicles it was used on) for the Rochester BC carburetor? Thanks!
The reviews are sounding good -- sending you a check for one today.

I'd negotiate with the store owner on a big-ticket item like that. A few bucks for an oil filter is one thing, but for a performance engine...my...
The site (http://www.napaengine.com/) says it's Hi-Tech Engine Components, Salt Lake City, UT. I don't know these guys -- hoping someone could...
Sending up a prayer.
Curious to see if anyone had ever used -- or even knew about -- performance crate engines from NAPA.
Mine has the original Y-block and is still working on the farm!
Welcome... lots of "car stuff" in your neck of the woods.
Check out Patrick's (http://www.patricksantiquecars.com/). Tell Danese that Richard from NAPA says Hello!
You have a great car, especially since it was your grandfather's car. The closest thing I have like that is my grandfather's 1952 Ford 8N tractor....
This is usually a good swap meet. Been going for years, and have often found some GREAT deals! Biggest trouble can be the weather. Supposed to be...
Sending up a prayer...
I like the stubby or shorty chrome toggles myself. Solder your connections -- forget the crimp crap. And use relays for heavy loads. My experience...
Hmmmm... Certainly from my father's influence, since he was a hot rodder himself. Mostly, the cars I saw when I was very young are the kinds of...
Unless you're an experienced wood worker, I'd avoid it for any price. A similar Model A, on a frame, will cost half or less.
Great job! Looking forward to seeing it in the car.
