So.. you have "shorties" on this.. most people claim they won't fit on '57-60 cars. What did you do for clearance on the left side? Want to use...
Sorry for the thread jack.. but where is that sway bar from?

I have seen a production number of about 4060 business coupes (model 70D) made in 1958. I don't know how accurate that is. The pic of the package...
Is this originally a "business coupe" with a package tray or are you just making it that way? The reason I ask is my '58 is a model 70D business...
I had the original DANA 44 in my 53 F100.. gear lube would run out of the worn out pinion seal about as fast as was put in. I ran that rear end...

Looking good!! Wish mine was that far along..
I drove my 60 Ranchero for several years as my "daily".. it had a 200 with a Carter YF carb, factory duraspark from a 75 Maverick. Mated the...
I have one of those.. hope to use it in my 1927 T roadster build. Any issues getting parts as I am sure mine will need going through? I...
So you added about an inch to your lower windshield.. I was thinking about doing the exact same thing on mine.. so much for an "original" thought!!
Wow, I thought my "bun" panel was rough...
Thanks! This would bumpers for a 60s Mustang, hence OT. Wouldn't take up a lot of space but the guy won't ship. Said he quoted a guy $400,...

When I ran an aluminum intake without PCV on an FE, I use the factory 289 4V carb spacer. It has PCV port in the back without the water lines...
I have both F1 hubs and '53 F-100 hubs. The F1 hubs have a "pilot" hole of 2.79" for the drum and the F-100 hub "pilot" is like 3.15". So how...
Back a few years (around 2001 and a couple years after) I spent a lot of time hitting the local recyclers. Found a couple 428 CJ intake manifolds...
That's the build I was thinking about but it's not the same car as in the auction listing. I wasn't sure if it was a 5w or not. Turns out...
