After much thought and consideration, I have decided to sell my ‘32 Ford. Here’s the details... It’s a 1932 Ford Model 18 Tudor Sedan. All Henry...
Got busy. Forgot about this thread. Yeah the, Explorer 8.8 is highly regarded. Narrowing to use two short side axles is a great rear end. But even...
Awesome coupe. Maybe I missed it, but what size tires are you running?
Awesome museum. Wife and took the kids several years ago.
My '32 Sedan doesn't have exterior mirrors. But if you turn your head you can actually see pretty well. In the little driving I've done so far, I...
What am awesome post. That blue fendered car almost looks like a stretched fiberglass dune buggy, but it must predate them by a bunch of years....
You and whoever said we're seeing a generational shift hit two things that are in play as well. There is definitely a generational shoft...
Zeroing in on this part of this post... This. 100% this. I have a 90% done project car (non-HAMB '93 Mustang GT) and my nearly stock '32 Sedan and...
When I was groing up hot rods and customs where practically everywhere in Western NY (Rochester and surrounding areas). This the 80's-90's. Since...
I firmly believe a good street engine only really needs to spin to about 5000 rpm. My daily driver is a 180hp/190ft-lb turbo 3 cylinder. I only...
I found a hot rod article with a whole mess of intake dyno'd. 4 barrel, dual carb, triple carb. The 284 CID dyno engine had a H&H spec'd custom...
What RPM effects come with the commonly used flathead cams? Like which cams shift the powerband up the tach and by how much? OEM cams check out...
Tons of off the shelf options for the 390. Don't over think it.
I was on site Saturday. Great day for a show. But I was disappointed in the show overall compared to previous years. Not many HAMB friendly rods...
I just dig the car. Looks to be A powered. I also thought it looked narrowed and I noticed the tiny fuel tank as well. Just looks like a cool...
Thought I'd kick this to the top one more time. Maybe someone will know something about it.
Leaf spring setup doesn't seem like it'd be that hard to engineer. Find a small pickup that weighs about the same and go from there. Ford Rangers...
wow, 104! We could all be so lucky to be his age and still be pretty active and with it. Bless him. Happy Birthday to an original.
Modern fuel, old fuel system perhaps? Whatever the cause, you hate to see it happen.
This little car looks like a T-bucket go kart. Would love to see clearer pictures of it. Do any exist?
Parallel leaf will get the job done. Simple and cheap. If you want to go with a multi-link type suspension I don't think you can beat a 3 link...
Thank you so much. I am gaming a build idea and I figured this info would be easily found. It was not.
Centerline of the kingpin to the mounting surface of the wheel on the brakes. I beams are spoken about by the kingpin measurement. Useful axle...
Does anyone know offhand how much is added to the kingpin width by a set of 46-47 juice brakes? I've been looking for a couple days now online and...
The simple solution is configure your fuel system from the tank up to and through the carb to run on the fuel you have access to. Flatheads, for...
I see this is from hot rod magazine. Can anyone share the year and issue? I really dig this car. EDIT: I found it. Dec '64
You can HEI convert without the hideous giant cap using a Duraspark distributor. Popular in newer truck and other circles. Just use a coil...
