That's right, LMC is right across the state at Kansas City and I have had good results from them for my 71.
On my 40 sedan, I took the speed coils from a 12 car and mounted it on the back of my fan so when the fan was running, it drew air across the...
Watch Carter Auto Restyling on YouTube, he does so much metal work without much equipment. He will encourage you a lot.
My roadster has dust shields on the front and rear disc brakes.
I never remove any sheetmetal, the most I do is remove the front two bolts on the hinges so the hood can open wider but I never take anything off....
definitely not the 3:55 with an AOD, I changed mine to a 3:70.
Hand made to match the window crank handles. [ATTACH]
Wonderful car to own, congratulations
I bought a nice portable garage, 12x20 for $6200 and it's real nice with a roll up door even. I thought it was a good idea anyway. [ATTACH]
Changing the camber on my car fixed the same problem on one side.
Syncing the carbs will only be important if you don't have progressive linkage. There is a tool that checks the suction of each carb to sync them....
This looks like an Alan Grove bracket but I don't know for sure. It comes off the water pump and mounts to the manifold. [ATTACH]
I just love this one, of course it's mine too. I've had a ton of fun putting thousands of miles on it too. [ATTACH]
Fill the holes, it will look better without it.
Be careful of Chassis Engineering as I bought a front sway bar for my 48 Chevy and it was not guaranteed to fit. It took some work to make it fit....
Glad you guys came out OK. Poor Clarence though.
I like to copy things so I duplicated the plastic knob for the antenna with a stainless steel one that I made. [ATTACH]
It never made any difference on my 32 3w. I also run a window screen behind my insert and I don't have a shroud. [ATTACH]
It would be some work but a cross steer Vega box with hair pins would look nice but it wouldn't perform any better. I have two 32's with both...
One I had once. [ATTACH]
I always go for the unfinished project but it has to be a car that I really want. I only restored one car from the ground up and I will never...
That's where a lathe comes in; you make your knobs all match.
I had the same problem with my project when I built a nice exhaust pipe. The clutch pedal just wouldn't clear until I welded in a smaller pipe...
I got to drive a 40 Chevy 4 door in the 50's with an Olds engine, it was a really neat sleeper. So I think your friend did well.
I've run two 32's with no hoods through all kinds of storms, no problem. I'd want to show off that engine for sure. Sounds like a great car to me,...
I like the engine sounds too. [ATTACH]
I've had a lot of yellow cars, they seem to attract bugs. I like the mild yellows, not the chrome yellows.
Changed out the clutch pedal bushings on my 40 Ford, really made a big improvement. The old ones were pretty worn but the pedal and shaft were...
And the Harley switch has different terminals.
My clutch pedal had pretty worn bushings so when I replaced them, it now works pretty good. I had the Ft Wayne 1510 pressure plate.
Separate names with a comma.
