Just bringing this one back up since I am running into this on my current '40 front end. Did you run it with the bolt turned upside down?...
Been o[ATTACH] ff the hamb for a couple years, but I am just dipping my toe back into the motor oil. I now have an almost-16yo son who is chomping...
[IMG] Bob McCoy's '40 Tudor. Sent from my SM-J700T using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Easily in my top five '40 Fords, ever. Thanks for clearing up the sizes, Lee! I am running '40 drums all around on my '39. And yes, it can be a...
Pretty much sits just like the Bob McCoy '40 Tudor......looks great on a flamed '40 Deluxe, but I am more into subtlety. Especially on a mostly...
Thanks, guys. It makes sense for me to keep the 8.20's, then, since I still run 3.78:1 gears in the banjo. The 6.40 fronts fill up that front...
I've searched to no avail. And I don't have the back issue of TRJ with the car featured..... Does anybody know what size tires, front and rear,...
Oh man, how I can relate to this one! I have been daily-driving my '66 F100 for about four years, now. And dropping my boys (8 and 11, now) off...
Holy shit! That is a perfect hot rod. I think those hose clamps are bitchin', too.
FEDER? Anyone still around here? I'll have to keep an eye out for Beetle during swap meet season, I guess...
I see that Beetle hasn't been on here in a few years. But I hope he's just lurking. I talked to him quite awhile ago about punching some louvers...
Final price: $800 plus shipping Hell of a deal. SOLD!!! 10/27
Bump. PM for more pics. Make me an offer! Someone needs these, somewhere. They are in great shape.
15" diameter. $900 shipped or best offer. Winter project underway. I need the dough.
[IMG] Nice pair of American Racing twelve-spokes. Tires have some sidewall-cracking. Using tubes. Early Ford hub size. Some pitting on outer...
I believe it was a restored Pontiac Special concept car that sold at auction for huge $$$ a few years ago? What a cool car! And my lucky, older...
HOTRODPRIMER, that is a confusing picture. But the "loose bolt" is actually the brake shoe centering adjuster. Scared the hell outta' me when I...
I am going to get a better look at all of this, when I just pull the whole damn thing out, wishbones and all. I am not even sure what is going on...
Yea, it scares me a little to think I had this car up to freeway speed with my wife and kids in there, with me. Who knows, they might be hell for...
[IMG] So, I jacked up my car, to take a really good look at the front end. It has a couple hundred miles since I got it up and running/stopping....
That has got to be a proper lacquer paintjob. It has the "nitro glo".
I had a set of ET's, a few years back, that looked identical to those on your truck. They had the pronounced peak down the middle of the spoke,...
That Torq Thrust ad with the Galaxie has been a part of my mental library for years. I first saw it when I was nineteen, and had to race over...
The catalyst for this whole rebuild project was me trying to tighten the axle nuts to 225lbs, like the book says... The driver's side nut...
Wouldn't be the first time I was penny smart and dollar foolish. Hell, you'd think after 41 years on this earth, I would quit cutting corners,...
Ok, my buddy that helped just corrected me. The ring and pinion were both replaced with known good ones from another rearend, but 3:78 just...
Hey, I just rebuilt the stock '39 banjo with a couple of seasoned buddies, one of which has been messing with these old Fords for decades. We...
That black '34 3W with Americans and the "I'll slash your throat" chop! It's the right color, and is a perfect specimen of mid-to-late Sixties...
What a damn perfect car. Image #3 has me mesmerized. I can't quit staring at that amazing on-the-road shot! I can almost hear that moment,...
I agree. Not to beat up on you, but I would also get rid of that glass-body fuel filter under there. That's an errant road pebble away from...
