If that's the order it happened in it makes sense, but the mental image I got was of someone refusing to buy American cars for decades, and then...
No offense to your friend, but if someone picked a Vega as the only American car they'd buy, there's nothing I can call them other than an idiot.
We went to another junkyard and things only got crazier. I quite literally fell to my knees before this automotive royalty. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Depending on how much they want for it, I'll get it just to have. These are pretty rare these days I'm sure.
Whilst on another junkyard date with my fiancé, I stumbled upon a Ford F1 with a peculiar v8 swapped in that I couldn't identify. The lady...
I'm quite partial to flatheads. Not sure why, as the only advantage they have over any other design is that valve float isn't an issue, but of...
My 900 handles like garbage and has the worst bump steer I've ever seen, but something has to be horribly wrong in the front end. Haven't been...
It does have some goofy tubes on the bottom. I'll get some more pics of it later.
I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever that way. The lady and I have 3 Saabs currently, but she's had 6 or 7 over the years.
I get that. As long as it's documented I don't really care.
No clue what we're going to put this in yet, but I've been brainstorming how I want to run it. Current fever dream is to boost and inject it using...
Forgot to mention the Holley fuel bowls. I found no less than 17 of them, but, strangely, no other Holley parts. Also found a factory Carter AFB.
Honestly I was shocked when I first looked in them. A little disappointed too. I'm a compulsive porter and like a good challenge. I'll try to...
For those wondering, this is what it looks like complete: [ATTACH]
I imagine there aren't too many of us genZ-ers on here.
Apparently Ford had a presence in Russia before the revolution. Interesting. What's more interesting is that they were able to maintain a presence...
I've read that GAZ copied Ford quite a lot, and upon examining the bottom end this morning, it looks like a design from the 20s or 30s.
Is it just me or does that intro music sound like The Shadows?
We are planning on building a large shed in order to get some of the junque out of the garage. Then the garage can be said clean space.
Arright yall, here it is: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I was surprised to find decent port design, though they could definitely use some work. [ATTACH]...
"THEEEEEERES A BAD MOON ON THE RISE"
No, sadly it was off by itself next to a pile of engines.
We bought the pistons and taillights.
Last week the lady and I were on a junkyard date (our favorite place), and ran across a 79 Ford Econoline that was full of uninspected junk. We...
Those guys are the automotive expression of "meanwhile in Russia". Love their channel.
Too late now bud. I'm not dumb enough to bother her for nothing. ;)
Well lads, she gave me permission. I'll try to get them both in the same shot. EDIT: It will have to be tonight or tomorrow, so be patient.
Yes on the engine, no on the fiancé. She's camera shy....
My woman would LOVE to get her greasy hands on one of those. That'd look nice under the hood of our Saab 900....
This is a flathead 4, with a floor shift. Not sure yet if it's 3 or 4 speed. I'd bet on 3.
