" Can you not anneal the section on question yourself?" Maybe, my understanding is that to anneal it properly requires a lot of heat for an...
On-Line offers no choices in heat treat so it's the same over-hard brittle waste as everyone else. I can buy 20' sticks and pay a small cutting...
JD2 with the SWAG hydraulic conversion. It will bend the Summit Racing 304 stainless but crinkles the inside and flattens the outside. I need one...
Really hoping this thread is still alive? I need to figure out what tube to use for water transfer tubes 1.25" OD x 10' long. They can be...
Car has been off the trailer for about a year now. Today I refurbished the rear brakes, then found the MC to be seized up. It appears to be from...

Sold and I have no idea what the buyer is doing with it.
Sold pretty quick, buyer could not get the axle free so it wound up as a roadside art piece. Maybe in another fifty years someone more dedicated...
Neighbor without a computer asked me to post this for him. I have additional pics to send by email. Ford AA Roadster pickup/flatbed. Body is...

Do not see myself going to MT any time soon. :( But I am near Reno if anyone might be coming this way.
Ahh, should say "H" series, distributor in the middle.
Old thread I know but it is what came up in a search. Frost broke the block in the old G series powered "ACME" forklift. Plenty old enough to be...

So, how to clean up the valve covers without going too far? Somebody told Brian they are 'Vette covers but I don't think so. Prefer to not have to...
Poking around the 'Web it seems a lot of these "Instant T" cars have known histories. Really hoping someone recognizes this one. How would we...
Just out of curiosity, what would have been the fair maximum to bid for this one? Runs and drives but needs TLC due to sitting. Not for sale, no...
