Been told a few time that I was bass ackwards:rolleyes:

Fuel injection? Can you hear the pump cycle when you first turn on the key? Try to hit the bottom of the tank directly under the pump pickup. Sometimes they will start running, sometimes they won’t. I’d bet the pump in the tank has quit or possibly the fuel sock on the pickup has stopped up...

This is one of those deals where going through the extra work to use the Rolls rear is really going to pay off. Nobody will have a clue what it is! Clean that puppy up real good and paint it and most people will think it’s some kind of aftermarket race axle. Great job! Enjoying this build![cl...

Usually bugs me, but this one gets buy with it pretty good since it’s not stupid tall. Most folks shorten them, but you lose cooling capacity when you do that. I’d rather have good cooling than cool looks. Whole car looks the part.[cl Great work as always Glen!

There have been a few speed parts made over the years, a multi carb intake, tube headers, maybe some other stuff. There is a pic floating around of a modern build of one with aluminum heads. Don’t remember the dollar amount, but it way pretty pricey!

Dutch, the V12 Lincoln motors are pretty rare. Based on the Ford flathead engine design with 4 extra cylinders attached, they weren’t very good engines when new. They had a tendency to overheat and crack the blocks, even worse than the flathead Ford. Although they were huge, they had tiny...

That’s why my car has a 302 in it! Insane!:eek:

Earth man, I’d love to have you as a neighbor here in Bama! It’s probably cooler here in summer than where you are now, but you do have to figure in the humidity. It gets cold here in winter, but doesn’t stay cold but a few days at a time, and we seldom get snow. Lots of green forests and grass...

When I was trucking , I always had FOX news or some talk radio station on. If I wasn't listening to that, I was on XM Radio Classics, radio programs from before TV took over. Now that I'm retired, I seldom watch TV news, almost never turn the radio on, and read a little on the web. I figured...

What is a transport wheel? A semi truck wheel? If that is what you mean, there are a lot of different sizes of them. 19.5, 20, 22, 22.5, 24, 24.5 could all be considered semi truck wheels. Then ya got 6 bolt, 8 bolt, and 10 bolt wheels to confuse even more. Ya gotta be more particular for us...

I doubt anybody makes a bed side for it, but a LWB pickup bedside should be close enough for patch panels.

October is our driest month, this one is more so than most. We haven’t had enough rain to measure in 5 weeks or longer. Everything is dry and dead. Under a no burn notice until we get rain, which is still a week or longer away. Temps are moderate, mostly 60’s at night and mid 70’s in the day...

I was thinking about you the other day. I remembered you were going on a long trip, so I just chalked it up to that. I know what you mean on being retired, I went full time retired last year at the last of Sept after I blew up my last truck. I don’t see how anything got done while I was working...

Probably a S10 rear end. Some of them used those goofy clips.

My beef with FB is you only see what they want you to see. Many times stuff will pop up advertising an event that is past that I would have been interested in going to but didn’t because I didn’t know about it. Just because your friends with someone doesn’t mean you’ll see all their posts...

Haven’t had that happen yet, but I usually pick and choose what I watch on there. I never have auto play on, and if it does it anyway I stop and go to what I want to see, not what they want to play. I’ve got a few favorites saved that put out a video or two a week, if they look interesting I...

People have always had opinions, they used to keep them mostly to themselves , but with the internet, it’s easy to spout off. Sit behind a screen and nobody will punch you in the mouth when you render rude, ignorant comments. I have very few friends on FB, seldom post anything, but read a lot...

They really don’t make them like they used to. I bought a pair of NOS blades for the Lincoln, box art appears to be from the 50’s or maybe early 60’s. These things are as soft and supple as anything made this year. Good old made in the USA Trico. Even after being in storage in who knows what...

Wow. I always have to send outside pics, but never have sent any inside ones. They didn’t ask to see anything on my drivers insurance, either, just wanted to know if I had a driver vehicle for every eligible driver. They may have changed for new policy holders since I got my first one with them...

Looks like fun! Gas or electric?
