Just thinking out loud here. I have a 48, 218 Mopar Flathead that uses the old Rope Seals for the Rear Mains. Of course even new seals eventually start leaking and the wife starts "pointing out":rolleyes: that the car is "ruining" the driveway. Anyway, to replace these things you have to drop...

I am running the Carter/Webber 2bbl progressives on an Offy manifold from Langdon's on my 218 Mopar flathead. Looks and runs great. From what I have been able to determine the 2 primaries together are actually about the same cfm as the stock 1bbl that came on the engine. Also added cast iron...

Bob, - I have a 48 Plymouth coupe (cousin to the Dodge). - My step dad and father in law are both retired Army and Viet Nam vets. - I have developed arthritis in one knuckle (sure it will spread some day). - And I could really use a new friend. So, when should I drop off the Plymouth? In all...

The aircraft beads are like tiny ceramic balloons. When they are mixed with the paint they offer insulation due to the trapped air in the balloons. It works along the same principal as a storm window. The air trapped between the storm window and the casement window insulates. There was a...

Here are a couple more from the day the car was delivered. Since then, I have changed out the vacumn wipers with an electric motor and fixed them so they park at the bottom not up and down. I also have painted the dash and window rurrounds gray. Don't know why in the hell they were...

I have had this car for just over a year now and so far I have rebuilt the front suspension, complete rewire with the help of a local HAMBer, installed a rebuilt 53 flathead 6 and R10 overdrive I bought, new 2 inch dual exhaust, and lizzard skinned the entire interior. I bought the rebuilt...

Unfortunately no. I had a photo album remember those from before the digital days? :rolleyes: Lost is somewhere in my move from Missouri to Texas about 15 years ago.

Newbie from Plano, TX. I was raised around hotrods and customs as my dad ran dirt modifieds in the 60's and later sprint cars around the SW Missouri, NW Arkansas and NE Oklahoma area when I was a kid. He also ran a 41 Willys Gasser for a while. No matter the body style it alway had a Mopar for...
