I LOVE those old REO trucks. Nice ones are too pricey for me these days,though.
This one big enough? 1 ton 37 Dodge that was originally a fire truck in Virginia[ATTACH] Sitting on a 72 Ford F-250 4X4 chassis and still has the...
As expensive as it is to pay a pro to do it,it's even more expensive to do it yourself unless you already have all the equipment,a good place to...
I am not giving up my two rough project cars,but more because I actually love making plans,gathering parts,and working on them. Sometimes I think...
I am guessing that a lack of power won't be one of your problems.
I have a 57 Ford that is a 600 series,IIRC. Probably an industrial model because it only has a 3 speed trans with no double low. Not knowing...
I dunno if it is STILL around on DVD in this day of "everything is streaming",but I know it was because I own it.
I sure hope you have a lot better luck this time!
I hear that thing idling,and I get a mind-picture of British Troops marching in cadence to a drum beat as they cross the field at Concord to...
Sorry for the late reply. For some reason I didn't get a notification. No,the Spitfire heads aren't shaved,but you can shave the one you just...
No,the car 215 or possibly 223 bellhousings. I have the "H" series 226 flat 6 that was used from 49-51 in both cars and trucks. Since Ford...
Nope. Trying to find a bellhousing so I can put a stock 51 FOM in my 51 Ford flat 6 coupe. Thanks for the info on the hogs head adapter,though....
No. Just an advertising name. You can shave/mill them if you want though,and 40 dollars is a VERY good price for one. They do look cooler than...
Will the FOM bellhousings from 216 or 223 OHV sixes bolt to a 1951 226 cubic inch flathead Ford 6? Anybody have a factory Ford 226 flat 6 FOM...
The "spitfire" head is just a standard compression head with a cool name. No extra HP. Save your money and use what you have until you can afford...
Yes,it is. I have one I am going to use behind the 312 Y-Block in my 34 Ford pu,assuming I ever get around to working on the damn thing. IIRC,you...
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Ford did indeed offer the OD trans as an option with the flat 6 engine. My...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The 51 and 52 FOM's require no floor or tunnel modifications to install. The 51 and 52...
The 51 and 52 FOM's require no floor or tunnel modifications to install. The 51 and 52 FOM's have a short tail shaft,and a dip stick towards the...
Not all that cool,but I bought a 53 Ford parts car I didn't want for 75 bucks because the guy was going to crush it,and it had a good 8BA and OD...
It has cast iron headers? If so,I may be interested in buying them. I might also be interested in buying the bellhousing. Send me a PM on this...
Where did you get those cast iron headers?
I am eaten alive with envy.

I'm loving that car. Wouldn't change a thing.
Thanks. That has to be one of the prettiest cars I have ever seen.
I feel your pain. I have a 37 Dodge 1 ton pu. [ATTACH] These things were only made 37,38,and 39,so parts are really hard to find.
