My dad used to tell his Chevy driving buddies "that thang won't pull a greasy strang out of a dead cat's arse" (gives a bad graphic image)
I ended up finding one on Craigslist for $800 bucks and bought the whole car. Ended up using the rear end and c-4 trans also. [IMG]
Any Lincoln Versallis spindle will fit if you can find them. Straight bolt on, no mods.
I have a set off of a 79 Versailles. Would be glad to part with if this is what your looking for. Timbo
Keep that c-4 tranny, you can adapt it to your y block.
Before and after on my engine. I just hope it runs!!!
It's pretty straight forward. You will need to soak most of the bolts with p/b blaster, this will make your life much easier. I left the inner...
Somehow I thought a "liquid mercury roll bar in the trunk" was the same as having your temperature taken from the backside.
Don't be too hard on yourself. Not being an @$$hole is not entirely a bad thing. I had a similar problem with my machinist. Kept my engine 18...
The webrodder article is the best that I have seen. Their tips on the air chiesel and the pipe fittings really helped me alot.
How bout a ball bearing mouse trap???
Call Billy!!!
You gotta check out Mel's diner. Very cool 50s decor and best t-shirts I found. (and the food ain't half bad either)...
I got this tool from Classic Performance. It cam locks down on the tube kinda like a vise grip. I've only made a couple of flares but seems to...
Wish you were closer to Memphis, I have a Ford-a-matic that I would give you for free.
This is on the Memphis Craiglist. Thought someone may be interested. http://memphis.craigslist.org/cto/2276490938.html
Wondering if the shop guy was refering to the ratio. My Versailles rear end had a 247 gear in it.
Optima 6 V batteries are really small, bout like 3 tall boys standing side by side. When hooked in series (Positive from batt 1 to Negative on...
If you can find them the Lincoln Versailles spindles are bolt on. You use your original ball joints. These also lower the front an inch or so....
Did they really think they could get over 10K for that '62 with that crappy paint and the rear shackles flipped up???? And just curious, did Ford...
Not too beutifull......yet.
Loosen the nut but don't take it all the way off. Brace you knees under the wheel so as to put as much pressure on it as possible. Take a brass...
If it will run, you can drive it around a little and get some heat in it and it might free up. Also you could drain it and add some Marvel...
Found another one, Dad both of these at the same time. The 21 was called a "B" car and the X was a "super C" car. Both were driven by a Guy named...
One of my Dad's old cars, early 60s, little feller is me.
This is Hooker Hood from Memphis probably somewhere around 1970. This thing had a Ford and seemed twice as loud as anything else on the track.
I'll second the brake hose suggestion. My 56 was all over the road under hard braking untill I replaced the front hoses. Stops straight as an...
This is where I got mine. http://www.kanter.com
I have used a product called "Trans X" with good results. It comes in quart cans and I think NAPA has it. Later, Timbo
Were you following a Chevy???
