The Shoe Box itself does as it was his baby. The chemical City coupe not so much. But I still plan on getting it out as well
Thank you! And I haven't a clue
the chemical City Coupe was my father's. He passed away back in February. It is now mine and my mother's. Been going over at little by little to...

I will be ordering from him again real soon.
Factory 15 inch wheels
Is the merc lug pattern the same as my shoebox ford?
It is my understanding that the 56 olds "flipper" hubcaps will not work on the factory 49 ford shoebox steel wheels. What wheels do I need to get...
I took a chance despite what I've read on here and placed an order. The parts came within a week to 2 weeks. Only downside is one of the...
No it's not. But still a rowdy aluminium headed 409 backed by a 4 speed and a 4.56 gear. If you look closely, you can just make out the chemical...
Anytime man

Thank you very much. I'm humbled.

Thank you. It still needs some work as in the front springs have collapsed due to being heated to lower the car. So a pair of aerostar springs...
Once the distributor is installed, I plan on daily driving it weather permitting. Hotrods are meant to be driven.
Well, a friend of mine helped me figure out the overdrive issue in the 49 ford I got from my dad, and it's now functional via toggle switch. So,...
That switch has been bypassed.
Is there a way to wire everything through a relay and a toggle switch? I'd still like to use the governor if possible. I have a 30 Amp 5 pole...
One last thing. When I perform all these tests on the relay, governor and solenoid, should I have the od handle pulled out, or pushed in?
I guess if it comes down to it, I would just run a wire from the positive post on the battery to a toggle switch, and out of the switch to the #4...
I will perform those tests. The governor is a refurbished and tested known working unit I just got from vanpelts. No sealer at all was on the...
You hit the nail right on the head. My main concern is getting the overdrive working first and foremost. I have a diagram to put a relay in line...
I am not putting points back in the car. So that's the end of that discussion. All I'm trying to do is get the overdrive to function. I don't care...
Well then my od is useless then as the car has an electronic ignition conversion and if I try and kick it down, it frys the module. I don't plan...
Even if it's a brand new relay it could be bad? The mechanical side of things works as it should.
The only thing I can figure out, is that with the key on, the relay is getting power to the fuse. On both sides. And that's where I'm stuck.
