I have a question that has been addressed to some extent before. But rather than dredging up a zombie thread (the one I was reading was from...
Fortunately, the place grinding the cams will hob the gears, too. So that will all be part of the operation. Costs are still being worked out. I...
Yeah, we're doing billets. Don't have a specialized foundry to do chilled cast iron.;) I'm learning to be impressed with the cost of machine work,...
Just a few years ago, there was a lot of reference to Contreras Cams as a source for Desoto cams. I checked in recently, and Natchi tells me he...
Any further progress. Inquiring minds want to know!
Glad I could bring it back around for you. It was your post, asking for it, that popped up on my search.
Was remembering an old poem I memorized as a kid, probably 50 years ago. When I tried to do a Google search, to confirm my memory, I couldn’t find...
I did a quick bit of online research. Trenton stamped the actual weight in pounds on the foot of their anvils. Many of the English made anvils...
Anything further on the Topolino?
Any updates?
Not sure what happened to my replies!? I was one of those working on Thanksgiving day, in the ER. Overnight into Friday morning, we had a couple...

That would be a long, but doable trip. I live in central Indiana, about 45 miles NNE of Indianapolis.
With regards to shipping, if you can get it banded on to a pallet, Fastenal can often provide shipping at cost less than others. Only challenge...
I am planning out a project and looking for the appropriate body. Came across these guys on the 'net. Anyone on here have any experience or...
Just don’t let someone like the late John Holmes drive that thing!:eek:o_O
Well, I’ve ordered a 1k-ohm wire wound pot. It will take it a while to arrive. From what I know about gauges like these, I presume I will crank...
51504bat, That was one of the sites I found in my search. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have any useful responses. Ebbsspeed, thanks for the useful...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I jumped quickly to buy a set of gauges that were for sale locally on the FB Marketplace. The price was good, but they came...
Awesome pic there, Stogy! Certainly shows that the vintage track roadsters often wore a nerf kinda like that.
Put me on the list of those in favor of it! I agree with Stogy’s suggestion of blacking out the spring bolts, for contrast.
You planning on putting a speedometer in there, or are you gonna figure that out by the rpm’s?
Any idea of approximate value? I really think I’m going with the 9 inch Ford, so I may be offering this for sale. But the nostalgia factor for...
