The time you would spend dismantling and parting it out would go a long way to fixing the rust so you can drive the shit out of it. And you have...
What makes a good donor for a filler panel to close the roof on my 36 5 window Ford coupe? thanks
I have a Y block Ford, sat many years and I resurrected it. It runs great, don't smoke but does have blowby and has used over a quart of oil in a...
I took my nephew and his 3 year old son in my hotrod a couple weeks ago. Spanked it hard through 3 gears, drifted through the drive and did a...
Ran around in high school with a girl who drove a yellow 61 Rambler wagon. You could lay everything down and have one playground, dash to tailgate.
Every state is different. I have a 40 panel and had a local towing company do the paperwork, took a couple months.
Is there any difference in the truck engines?
Does Mac's have anything you can't get somewhere else? My first experience with them 15 years ago wasn't great. Ordered a carpet set for a 64...
I have a 36 5 window project in the holding pattern, always liked the 35 better, much better. But I'd trade in a heartbeat for a 37 or 38 standard.
Don't remember it, but then the 70s fogged a lot of my memories.
Considering what you are using it for, nothing you have there is going to be of service as is. Even the stock carrier. If you inspect it and it...
$10 one time fee. The ladies here can tell if the number is good. Then I bring in a picture they send to the state, wait a month or so for the...
Here are pictures of one I owned a couple years ago. Sorry, the best I can do. [IMG] [IMG]
I'd have to get out to that farmers barn and check out the poly. I'm only assuming the hemi is a 315 because it says that on the valve covers.
Thanks. I'm not sure on the engine size. How would I tell? It did come out of a pretty fancy sedan with automatic tranny, I parted out it it's...
Here's mine that used a 29 4 door cowl, 26-27 T touring back [IMG]
I got some engines out of an old farm shop. One of them is a 315 Hemi with the crank, rod and main caps missing. Give me the short version of...
010 just means 4 inch bore, almost every carbed 350 had that casting number and probably small journal 327s too I suppose.
4.56 gears make it a little slow on the open road. But hell, I'm in no hurry anymore. I'm building a reciever hitch and getting it wired for...
Not a hotrod, just a fun old truck. I found this on a ranch in Montana, hadn't ran for 20 years or so. I've done a mechanical resurrection of...
I just aquired a 36 five window and trying to decide what to do with it. I'm wondering if anyone sells repair/replacement parts to fix this munged...
Oops, typo, I meant 406. Ford gave him a couple when they were new. I have a picture of him and the car in a HG Felson book.
Her said he figured if it didn't say you couldn't then you could and always stopped if they told him to. This didn't end with him. Listen to some...
I read a great interview with him, I think in Circle Track. Once he switched the Hudson cam in a teardown by having an associate throw...
They had a 360 hp solid lifer version in 1960
Back in the day, we used the dual point distributor, not sure what all they came in but a new one from a Z28 was like $30 at the Chevy store. Cam...
409 IIRC

2 I am working on now. Just finishing up the brakes and the 59 will be driveable. Found it on a ranch in Montana, last tagged in 79 [IMG] Found...
Love the 40-41 panels and love the story. I have a 40 tonner panel I'm piecing together.
Separate names with a comma.
