    ...feel free to bitch me out if I don't do this right. I've been lurking for about a year, but had to join in so I could add to the post about Lincoln flatheads, a subject dear to my heart. Anyway, here goes.

    I am a 56 year old retired engineer from Ventura, Calif. and have been a hotrodder for 40 years. My current projects include a '23 T bucket with a V8-60 flathead, Kelsdy-Hayes wheels and a Halibrand quickchange; a '27 bucketub that will have the '50 Lincoln from under the work bench on an A frame and 9" rear. My daily driver is a '85 BMW 635 CSi (oh blasphemy). I'll post pics if I can figure out how, but computers are not my strong point.
     
  2. That wasn't too painful now was it? ya done good (except for the BMW part). Welcome.
     
  3. Ah, shucks.
    Good to know that someone has a year or two on me.
    Now, tell me about the Lincoln.

    Welcome by the way. And don't be shy just jump in there. [​IMG]

    What's a flathead? And why is it under your bench?

    Welcome aboard, at least its a real BMW, 635's were pretty serious in touring car racing in these parts. Its the 318 and 520 crowd that upsets me, hell if you gotta haveone get a decent sized engine in the poor thing.
    Project sounds cool....

    A flathead is what you get when you raise it to fast under a bench...! [​IMG] [​IMG]

    And BMW is an accronym for "Beats Me Walking"...! [​IMG]

    Hey Drop – welcome. I’m working on a V8-60, (tin side), at the moment, it’s in the shop getting checked and pressure tested. We want to run at Bonneville next summer in a vintage midget.
