Buckley is a rescue. He's 9 months and 55 pound yellow lab hound mix. Bubba is a 40 pound black lab mix, rescued at the same time and place as Buckley

You have endured alot but still hangin in there. I heard you tenn. mountain men were tough, now I believe it....seriously, still prayin for you ..:)

Got the A Bucket running and drivable. Brakes needed some fine tuning but they feel good on my short driveway.

Thanks for all the replys. I talked with speedway tech again and they tell me that "back in the day" drum brake masters had check valves but their master cylinders, the one I used, do not have a check valve so I won't have the pressure buildup problem. But like Old Iron said I should keep an eye...

:D I don't understand why that would happen, explain please!..... I put the iron one on being careful not to lose fluid or allow air into the system.."BAM" I got solid pedal now. Speedway will refund or replace wihichever I want, so that;s cool, think I'll ask for replacment.:D

I know the stock answer but here goes anyway. Why can't I use a disc/drum master cylinder on a 4 wheel disc setup? My problem is I bought a speedway aluminum mastercylinder for 4 wheel discs, it won't bleed properly, can't get the air out, it just keeps makin bubbles. So I have a new 910-31425...

Thanks Dr....now the big search will start tomorrow!!

Chevy experts, my 283 engine has a casting number of 1958. The holes in the block are about a quarter in. closer than a 350 so an after market starter with 2 hole straight bolt pattern will not work. This block does have 3 holes for a staggered bolt pattern starter and a 350 starter will bolt up...

I don't know what part of the country builds the Koolest radical rods but Pennsylvania is a very close second to whoever is in first place. Thanks for posting Ron, that's alot of work....love the studebakers even if they are late models...:D

Happ Birthday Earthman..the older you get the faster they come [seems like it anyway]..:D

!937 Fords didn't have a vin stamped on the frame. All early Ford vin were on the engine/bellhousing. Either it's not the vin or po stamped it there. Why do you want to change to a 1/2 ton. I think you are opening a box of trouble to try to do that, use the 1.5 ton title and drive it.

Mounted the alternator on the A Bucket. Was going to mount it lower left but the belt hit the steering box, so mounted it high left and made an adjuster using heims, works good. Then worked on the Studebaker making patch panels to fill rust holes. Now must wait for the money tree to bloom again..[P

Don't need to hunt drones, they fall out of the sky on thier own!! Why is it called federal property when they extort taxes from us to buy them? Please don't encourage people to shoot in the air, what goes up must come down!! Justice for Chris Stevens! Fre Adam Kokesh! End rant

That is one sweet ride. I was a big Pontiac fan in the 60's . Had a 60 Catalina and a 65 GTO. ..:) The 40 Coupe in my avatar was 455 pontiac powered.

Yeah...just can't figure why they don't get a life??...:confused:

Yes,yes and yes. The hat is thin staped steel, maybe .062 but I think it should be at least .125. The caliper bracket is .250 and I think it should be at least .375. Don't think the axle flanges are the problem, the hats are bent. I may have done it but don't know how I could have. Guess my next...

What did you have for breakfast???[P

Got a question about the runout on my rear disc brake rotor. This is a speedway weld on disc brake kit on my 9 in rear. The rotor wobbles [runout] about 1/8 inch. Is this acceptable or should I try to fix it. I loaded a video on my photobuket hme page and heres a link to it. Click on the video...

That's an 80+ year old frame, I would build a new frame. If you have the skills to patch the old frame, certainly you have the skills to build a new one!!:)

Place the engine/trans in the position you want it , then fabricate your frame mounts using tubing and plate material.
