I have an Arvin that has a rotating/louvered front panel like that one. I'm changing the motor from 6V to 12V.
Yessir ! :)
I agree. I have this one for sale.....it's a Profile with an approximately 14:1 ratio which would be ideal for a street driven vehicle. It...
Sorry for your loss, Rich. :(
Welcome, Lorie. We ran a Lyndwood digger back in '63. :)
I couldn't agree more.
This pic has probably been shown in this thread already.
I attended an Oldtimers' event at Winchester in the mid-'90's and A.J. Watson had this car there (sorry about the photo and the cage :)). I...
Welcome, Dirty ! :)
I have one.....axle only. It's a 3" dia. and believe it's a 50" with a 1" offset. The bolts and washers that hold the hubs are there too.
54 ? That's NOTHING !! Hell.....I can't remember that far back. Is this the old guy you see lookin' back at you ? Happy Birthday, kid. :)
Belongs to a friend of mine.
Essex....what size do you need ? I have a new pair of cones that might work for you. They're mild steel however, SJF
Yep.....listened to it a lot up here in northern Minnesota in the early '60's. I remember the commercials for Stan's Record Shop in Shreveport, LA.
Sorry....I have no idea.
I have a few "Bear 500 Club" chenille patches from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the '60's.
Evidently I'm doing something wrong.
I'm there....alone as usual. :(
I wanted "USAC Registered Car" stickers on my '60's street-legal sprint car replica but I didn't want them to be exact. I had my local sign shop...
Lookin' good ! :)
I sold this 13 1/2" dia. wheel to a HAMBer awhile back.
The white 4 car was one of mine. It ended up in Indiana. All of our races were on 1/4 and 1/3 mile dirt tracks.
Welcome, 46.
I built 13 cars like this (all with different bodies) in the early '80's. 2" X 4" main rails, buggy springs at both ends (a few guys ran coils),...
Sit in the middle with the driveshaft between your legs ? If so, I like it. Now just put an axle and buggy spring across the front.....and rear.
That's your fuel pump.....a vacuum tank. Engine vacuum pulls fuel from the main tank into that tank and the fuel is then fed by gravity to the carb.
Amazing ! :D
Welcome....from another Eddie Cochran fan. :)
These are from a Toyota Supra(?) and will fit a car that has a 50" width where your shoulders would be with room to spare. They're for sale.
I recently changed my dash center from those white-faced Stewart Warner things to the VDO tach and speedometer shown. They match my early 2 5/8"...
