That's how I feel, most excellent movie.
That's cool but a little sad that it can't be restored.
Me for one. I bought my 50' Ford with out any of the gauges working, I ran a temp gauge myself just to make sure I wasn't going to blow up the...
I love the 51' grill, I want to put that on my 50'. I also really like the chrome trim on the tail lights.
Cool! Welcome to the world of first time hot rodders!
nice, I have a 50' I'm working on that's not quite that far along yet.
Ya that's all that's left at this point is to drop the distributor in. I've never attempted something like that on my own before, I'm doing all...
I've seen this done before where they hallow out a spark plug and run the tube, it's something I'll add to my tool set eventually but right now...
Out near Hemingford, Nebraska there was a very successful rancher you bought a new car every other year for something like 40 years from the...
I don't know about in cars but when I was in the Army we used it on pretty much all our electronics to help protect the cabling and to help with...
Nice!
I live in Orlando, Fl and I love the old Star Trek episodes from the 60's... sorry but Captain Kirk was a badass.
When I was in high school my Dad & I restored a 1970 Dodge Challenger 383 4spd and we found a dime bag, worked out well as we had a cop living...
Ya thanks. As I said this is my first project car and I'm basically just jumping in and figuring it out as I go along, building the car out of...
It is Marked at #1 on the cap and I've got it set to #1 on the distributor. I don't know if there are any markings as the 'Deg Wheel' as you...
Oh Wow! That is in amazing shape. What are your plans? It's like looking at my car except without the rust and bad paint. And dents. And broken...
That sir is the correct answer.
Ok, ok I know you guys have to be sick of hearing for me and my idiot questions but could someone please confirm this for me. I think this is the...
[IMG] Not entirely sure what this was originally on but it's my favorite that I've found so far. It's what I'd actually like to put on my 50' Ford...
Well at least it came out looking sharp in the end.
I appreciate that, I've been stareing at the front of my engine for the last three days and I'm either missing something or my engine is because...
Ya well maybe less smart ass comments and more help and I could stop asking dumb questions but thanks for the support.
My 50 Ford smells of a mix of old farts, used motor oil and cheap apostasy. I'm not sure if I'm losing my mind but I'm starting to like it.
Am I crazy or just nearly blind but shouldn't there be a marker on the crank pulley and the water pump to indicate top dead center? I'm resetting...
Do you have a younger friend? I'm 30 and just now getting into bikes and cars but one of my good freinds who is in his sixties and has cancer,...
Thats so cool, especially as the owner of a 50' Ford Sedan.
It's when Pontiac launched the GTO starting the muscle car era.
Sort of I guess you could say. My Dad has always been restoring old 60's and 70's muscle cars. Although I think they're cool looking I just never...
[IMG] Although it's not running at the moment I do drive this thing 3-4 times a week.
It'll buff out. No really I'm sorry to hear that it's always a sad day when someones car gets messed up.
