Welcome, from Ark City.
Keep the '56 Ford. You care more about it and will regret letting it go. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"...
It has been converted to 12 volts. The 12 volt coil would not have lasted long in a 6 volt system. That might be why the solenoid failed when you...
I believe you are right. It's an early aftermarket Model A intake manifold by someone like R&R or Simmons. Most of those were actually inferior to...
We in the US call that a trailor, or more specifically a travel trailor. The Brits call it a caravan. ... I have never seen one quite like that,...
You need a hub puller like this one. The kind you turn by hitting it with a sledge hammer. Some have a one-piece cone-shaped base instead but the...
I had one many years ago. As someone noted above, you need a later transmission because the starter is on the other side of the engine. If you...

Welcome, also from Ark City!

I have owned several pre-war Ford Coupes and no Tudors, so I guess that shows what I like best. But I know what you mean about Tudors. I have...
It's always nice to get an old engine running; even if you know you'll need to rebuild it later. Before you try to start it, though, put some...
