Thanks for the replies, guess I'll be the first Hamber in SE Oregon. People are kinda few and far between, but then I don't fit to well with the...
Going to be moving to Oregon in a little bit, was wondering if there were any hambers in lake county? Yep... leaving the great state of...
Paso was great while it was here, but it's gone and will never be back. Been down to Santa Maria for the last couple of shows and WCK, Penny and...
Sounds better than sittin' at the show all weekend. Plus the roadster looks better goin' down the road than in a show. We'll be there...
Forgot to mention, the t10 in my roadster came out of a falcon ranchero and bolted right up to the 3spd bellhousing on the 292.
Did any of the bigger trucks have a 5 speed trans in them? If you're not towing very far or heavy, the t5 shouldn't give you any trouble. Just...
For just about anything, try Kanter auto products. www.kanter.com They had motormounts for my '51 Olds in stock.
Didn't know of Andy untill after he passed. After reading this, I wish I'd known him better. You're a hell of a man for raising a son like that....
Bitchin' find!!!!! :cool: Looks like it was right above my cousins house. Right under my nose, and didn't see it!:eek:
Got a spot to sell the Olds with no problem. Hope there's at least one person there, the one thats gonna buy my car...See ya there.
Only the middle one leaks on my roadster....guess its 'cause I got the other two blocked off...:rolleyes:
Just went and looked around, was a pretty good little show for the first time around.:cool:
What's a little sunburn? :rolleyes: Couldn't have asked for better weather. Had a blast driven' over and back with friends, and the Olds ran like...
That's why the rumble seat in the roadster got put in on the last re-do. He thinks he's the s--t sittin' back there!!!:cool:
The view from the top of CA Hwy 46 between Paso Robles and Cambria in the morning is incredible. The sunrise behind you and a clear view from...
Been runnin' a 292 w/ an Edelbrock 3x2 with the two outside carbs blocked off for about 10 years with no problems. Just to cheap to get a good set...
I've been running drop beams for about 12 years with no problems. I'd say the cost of the beams and other parts would be worth it as opposed to...
Don't remember which is which, but you clip one for 6 cyl. and both for 4 cyl. Leave 'em alone for 8 cyl.
Thanks for the info on that, not sure if the 312 block I have is good anyway.
'31 A roadster, 292 out of a '64 p/up, T-10 4 spd. It goes down the road pretty good. Someday it'll have a 312, ECZG heads and enough cam to make...
I've run Mobil 1 synthetic ATF in a T5 trans since '96 with no problems at all. ( '65 F100 with a healthy 351W ) Smooth shifting trans, and the...
I picked this '51 up last spring. Its nicer to drive than most new cars. :DThe 303 Rocket has got plenty of power even with only a 2 bbl carb. The...
That picture brings back some " sob " memories. RIP Paso.........
I went through all of those pictures(YAAAWWWWWWWWWN) and didn't see one of my roadster?????????? Its got paint on it so it can,t be that bad....
But will your glasspacks set off car alarms when idleing through a parking lot???? Got Flowmasters on my '65 F100 351W and I love the sound, maybe...
Damn trailer queens........... saw the roadster at San Miguel , missed Primer Nats and Santa Maria , looks real good.
Here's my 2 cents, I put disc brakes off of a '75 on my '65 f-100 back in 1995 and its the best thing I did on the truck. Other than the 351W and...
I was on NAPA auto parts' web site today, and they list both a roller and ball bearing for the '51 Olds. The part #'s are also the same for the...
Thanks a million for the info, I'll start doing some parts chasin' tomorrow. I already had to buy one bearing @ fifty-two bucks and change, so a...
Still looking for some ideas. Was thinking about taking the part #'s from the old bearings to a bearing supply and see what they could do. If disc...
