Very classy, LoneSpar.
Enjoying another white out here in the Red River Valley of Minnesota. Think of someone holding up a white sheet 10 feet from you, and in a wind...
Love my 8BA. It was what I wanted, so I just did it. And no, I didn't add up the receipts. Had to have a machine shop stitch a cracked block,...
Very nice.
Those are the best gifts.
Love slot cars, even have a snowmobile. Here's an early American Flyer set. Pretty cool.
That is very cool.
I like it too. Used a modified Chevy in my 51.
bab59, it's style!
I used Red's ceramic coated for my 8BA. Fit and finish was very nice, did as daddio said and took it to the local muffler shop for a custom install.
Yup. The truck bellhousing is the key for the T5. I used Cornhusker and it works like a charm.
My daughter says, "Dad, you better start writing down what stuff is worth."
In high school in 1968 I bought a 1961 Pontiac Tempest 4 dr., 3 on the floor, half V-8, radio delete, $250., and no, I don't want another one....
I like it, too.
I have one in my flathead, couldn't be happier with the way it contributes to the performance.
My 8BA setup
Flathead with three deuces singing my favorite tune.
I started with a couple hundred dollar car and thought to myself "Well, this won't be bad." Ha, that was the cheapest thing. . .and I also have a...
Check Hydro-E-Lectric. I bought my cylinders and pump from them, works like a charm. There are also others around.
My condolences. Always willing to help.
It's all fun and games until someone pokes an eye out, then it's helarious. Sorry, couldn't help myself.
Couple of old folks in one of my hot rods. Will be 37 years together next month. She's a sweetheart, and my wife is, tool
Kind of fell into my 51 Ford, it's the same age as me, but now in a lot better shape. Is it my dream car? Nope. Have a few on my list, probably...
Fun memories, still have a couple on the shelf to get to someday. . .
Not a big fan of them.
I'm certainly not sorry I built the flathead for my ride. Love the motor.
Very nice. I like the color, too. It's always fun to see all the different directions these cars can take.
Snow is disappearing, driveway is drying up, maybe next week I can go for a cruise.
My 16th birthday was 46 years ago, and I sure do remember it. Make the most of each day, the years fly by in the blink of an eye.
I like it. Brings back memories, both good and bad, of my 51 build.
