I've been dreaming about the day the new house and shop are done so I can get my 50 Ford out of storage and get back to work on it!
I have the vibrating typy rock "tumbler" - also use the HF green diamond media - didn't work worth a crap.
My (OT) 67 Toyota Landcruiser was driven by Katherine Crawford in the pilot for Gemini Man (76) She lost control, hit a bridge abutment & laid it...
64 Stude Daytona 4 door sedan with power windows, door locks, air & power Disk brakes. also had a 56 Chev 2 door post with the padded dash - best...
Yes on both counts - 4-speeds are Brit, pretty rare, and a expensive weak link! Rich
My parents had a 53 Buick 2-door Special and a 59 DeSoto Firedome 4 door. Was SUPPOSED to take the test in the little Buick - Dad took it to work...
Merry CHRISTmas everyone!! Wishing you a Safe and Happy NEW YEAR!

Have one - the stud gun works fine - the puller won't grip well enough to use as a slide hammer. tried flipping the gripper wheel, replaced it,...
Done - good luck in your studies!
Looks like fun - think I'll give it a try - only been 30 or so years since I built any - might even have a old start in the closet.....
Looks great, other than the 55 Chevy grill - looks like an afterthough to me - just doesn't belong. Even the stock one would be better! Also...
Sweet! Liked - Rich Wolfe on Facebook
I'm in #2! Hmm - that doesn't sound right somehow.....
I never win anything - but I'll play anyway!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Stanwood Washington!

Keep the fenders - too nice a shape to lose! NO S-10 - it just aint right
Happy birthday Danyelle - from the rainy Pacific Northwest!
9 Gallons is WAY too small - ESPECIALLY for running your DA. Might work OK for painting if you just do panels, but not for shooting a complete...
Read you've tried, but didn't notice if you'd replaced ALL the rubber hose on your fuel line. Even fuel hose will eventually break down inside,...

I have it on DVD - Hot Rod Girl - from 1956... pretty hokey acting, but lots of cool hot rods. Rich
Don't know if they still do it, but when I was there about 20 years ago, they would once a year load all the employees of the cosmetics factory in...
That would be the Messerschmitt - from the 50s - another truly odd vehicle!! [IMG] It has controls like a small plane - push wheel to...
Altho I'm a firm believer in the Ford-in-a-Ford idea, and love the sound of a Flatty, the Hudson has a lot more power from the get-go, & sure...
Had a 427 with a C-6 & headers in a 63 E-van - Y block should fit fine! The cover didn't even need to be modified. Biggest problem was still had...
