    Everyone says nice truck!

    Joe, Thanks, it just makes sense to leave it as it is, a Ford. Maybe on a more unique application I might change the drive train. It's an American truck all the way, it was just butchered up all over the dash and one of the rear fenders looked like someone took an ax to it. Some PO had crudely...

    I am in the process of rebuilding the front end now and removed three leaves from each side. Will post pics when back together again, waiting on King Pins as LMC sent me the wrong ones...

    SBF Timing Tab?

    Roger that! Still getting my garage set up to actually do some work out of! It's even more fun using transformers and burning S&!t up! It will just be fun crawlin up under there to get good measurements if I mak a nice piece. the throttle bracket for the cable was way easier being on top...

    SBF Timing Tab?

    Yeah, I figured that is what I was gonna have to do. Just put my own marks, But Like I said I can't seem to even find a bolt on pointer though. I guess I'm searching in the wrong places via the net...

    SBF Timing Tab?

    Yeah, I got the TDC and all that good to go but can't locate a tab to bolt on and of course I did not find one in a parts yard before I left the states. I'm now in the UK and SBF are not so common here... Got to love it. I think I can get away with the maximum advance without pinging till I...

    51 F1 I had since 95 just got to it!!!

    Brought it to England with me! And just after I started the build I blew up my daily driver 58 beetle. my dad said the #3 wrist pin broke in it. 51 F1 is way cooler to drive over here than a bug would be. Still got stuff to do to it but it's drivable!

    SBF Timing Tab?

    Ok, So I got a 302 block in my 51 and it has no timing marks, tab, ect... on it anywhere. I have tried to look them up on summit, jegs, ect... with no luck. plenty for chevy! Can anyone tell me what is up with that? how the heck do you time a SMF other than by mechanically setting it then...

    51 F1 I had since 95 just got to it!!!

    Got most of the inside done here, [/IMG] Damn epoxy primer stayed somewhat soft for a long time, maybe from AZ heat. I don't know but it was annoying...[/IMG] Came together pretty nicely though [/IMG]

    Deadanimal in the House!

    Thanks, It is an original owner car, my great grandmother bought it new in So Cal and I got it with 40,000 miles on it. Put another 40+ on it and removed the drivetrain to install a 455/700R4 combo. Will be nice to finish that when I return to the states in a few years. That is one expensive...

    51 F1 I had since 95 just got to it!!!

    Yeah, thought about that one. I need some more of the square tubing to add a little more riggidity to them. I think I need to raise them a bit too. after driving around a bit it seems low. Or just chop it! Deadanimal
