That's about what I pay through Farmers classic insurer, JC Taylor. Haggerty wanted over 500 for a year.
I've been retired a while and I have never once got up in the morning and thought "I wish I was going to work today." Congrats and Enjoy!
Back in the mid 60s, my dad had a radiator shop. I was about 10 so I don't fully understand some of the things he told me, but from what I can...
I have the same bed on my 70 but my exterior color is a little lighter. I chose a gray stain for the wood floor. I thought it complemented the...
60s Toronado/Eldorado transaxle?
In Texas, before this year, no inspections were required for antique licensed vehicle. Now all inspections have been terminated except for...
The front 4 are rich, the rear 4 have 2 rich and 2 lean. Maybe a vacuum leak? Have you checked it with a vacuum gauge?
And several gold chains.
Over the years, I have seen several hot start problems blamed on heat soak that turned out to be the missing support from the end of the starter...
I have seen some early VW with gasoline heaters. It sounds terrifying to me but they seem to have been pretty reliable as VW used them in several...
There are companies that make shorter control arms but most 15" wheels won't clear the brakes.
Or a toilet flushing...
When I was in high school, my dad sprayed his 51 Chrysler with light blue porch and deck enamel thinned with gasoline! It actually looked pretty...
I used Weldwood contact cement to cover my headliner and door panels. Both were made of fiberboard and I used vinyl from Hobby Lobby. [ATTACH]
Trace the wires. My guess is that you'll find they go to the stepper motors that control the vents. The box takes the switch position (floor,...
I don't mind all the names given to the different truck generations. I'd never heard of bump or dent describing Ford trucks until after I bought...

I'm pretty sure that is an aftermarket add on switch. It would be used to power an accessory only when the engine was running. Commonly used to...
I found this American Flyer about a month ago. Wheels and seat were completely rusted away. I built a seat and sissy bar, and added wheels from an...
If I stick to just the ones that were installed in a vehicle, running or not, I come up with 158. I can't even begin to count all the parts...
March bracket setup with Ford 3G alternator. Simple, reliable. [ATTACH]
I'm also interested in this stuff. One thing I've wondered about is how the track width is measured. If the factory wheels are somehow used in the...
1936 Fugly ;-)
Just to add to the electric options out there, I was at a junk yard today and saw this unit on a Chevy Cruise. Electric assisted power rack. I...
Exhaust gases cool as they travel down the pipe, resulting in less volume. Since the muffler is a restriction, the farther back from the engine...
Keep in mind that Ford used 3 different bolt patterns on FE heads.
Oh, remember when you had wiper refills and didn't have to replace the whole blade? Yeah, good times!
Take no chances when working on someone else's brakes. No matter what your customer says, the family of the person he kills when the brakes fail...
That Rambler is one of the few conversions where the change improves the looks! ;-)
