Those are the Big-Block, except for the vacuum gauge, that is small-block. Today's 'Wings' gauges, are a mash-up of smooth bezel (smoothies) and...
Proper oxy/fuel welding doesn't throw sparks either. Regardless, any type of welding needs a controlled environment. Unfortunately, I don't have...
That is a pretty fantastic window. That's a 'find' story you'll be telling people about until you die. I recommend going back to the house and...
Chris, thanks for always posting your good photography. So much better then iphone pics.
The sound is noticeable, people in other cars and on the street will hear it too. But it's really not that bad for the driver I think. I have...
What the hell is a '36 Lincoln with a TWIN NOSE!!??!!
Congrats Ed, boy that was a lot of work. But you did it! Looks totally vintage like you planned.
I'm looking forward to the show, loved it last year. And looking forward to see if you can finish that Galaxie in time. By the way, I have...
Tim, you didn't know about the show? Where were you, at the Palos Verde Concourse De' Elegance? --I'll send you a reminder in the future.
Superior photography Chris. And thanks for the three great photos of my roadster. I couldn't have shot better myself. What camera are you using?...
If you are a hot rodder and live within 20 miles of this, you should be there! FREE to spectators & FREE to enter your classic car Pancakes --not...
They were all pretty good, but Neil gets my vote for craftiness & originality. At first I thought, "Where is he going with this?" But by the...
I like where this build is going. It's like you're adapting an American classic for narrow European city streets. I hope to see the car finished...
I was just there too for the latest Rolls & Pleats (not in yet by the way). They have ALL the hot rod mags, and many back issues. I remember...
So glad you posted that flyer, I was expecting it to be in October! I might have totally missed it. It's two week earlier this year. I better...
Really great to watch. I grew up and live in LA, (37 years old). The streets in the film are so familiar, yet so so different. It was also so...
Give me a Ford any day! Where it gets expensive is in the repaired to the block during rebuild. Opening up a flathead can be like a box of...
I wouldn't mind see some other ho-made brake scoops. Anybody?
I think it could look better with a hood.
Monte what is the lower shaft from?
Am I still on the HAMB?
Not sure if it's all '28s, but they have a oblong hole in the piece of sub-rail where your left foot might rest next to the side cowl panel. No...
Such a light flywheel, but the steel insert should weight it up a bit. Still, it'll be much lighter the a stock one. But are those teeth usable...
It's rusty in the jacket, nothing more then what I've usually seen. But, I've never taken a block to 3-3/8 either. The picture is just after I...
Normally I would say no. But on that car --yes.
I just dismantled my 99A Mercury block for machining. What came out were 3-5/16 'STD' pistons. Stock bore is 3-3/16 as opposed to the Ford...
This bi-metal flywheel I own is going on my current engine project. The teeth are pretty chewed up, so I'd like to change the ring. It looks to...
Who's were they? Some old rodder?
Geez, it's not too far away --I hope you're done in time. I look forward to seeing it in person.
Ouch is right! The ad says, "Roadsters such as the one offered here are generally referred to as traditional hot roads for their adherence...
