S.U. carbs... for reliability...?

I ran one on my 1948 Harley Pan Head. Was very reliable.

I`ve owned a whole bunch of british cars with su`s in all sizes. Never felt the love...

He's rockin' the "Nuttin Special"!
I tried one on my 59 Pan and never got it right...went to Bendix!

Always ran Linkerts on my panheads. Tried a Lake Injector in the early 70's, was a $100 piece of junk. S&S seems to be the carb of choice for shovels and evos.

It ain't grey hair, it's chrome!
Working backwards, makes me think that a flock of SxS carbs would be cool on a V8.....
I like the semaphores on that pickup (turn signals)

I don't remember if this has been shared here, but it's a cool truck (and it resides in Canada ) More detail photos and info in the link. Note the location of the door handles and which way the doors open. Tricky [cl

"Truly a one-of-a-kind build that was a big crowd favorite at the 2019 Goodguys Puyallup show last summer. Sadly, the truck was overlooked when it came time to handing out awards."
Makes you wonder, doesn't it? [S
Anybody can be a critic (there are no prerequisites). I'm not knocking the truck or the build, it's beautiful... however, I couldn't help but notice this interior shot and a few "cut corners"...
Just an observation! I've worked enough car shows to know, many things get thrown together at the last minute...

I've been to the Puyallup show and there are a lot of very well-built cars there. From the photos this truck is beautiful, but certainly some details just fall a little bit short. Details make all the difference in awards at a big show like this.

Thanks, bud!
My SS was originally that colour (no puke yeller vinyl roof). It was a silvery grey when I bought it and I painted it BLACK a couple years later... which didn't make it any faster!

Chrysler concept.
"The curves on the 1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt were inspired by streamliner trains. The car was among the first to have power windows -- Chrysler used hydraulic motors to move them. The fully retractable hardtop and button-operated pop-open headlights were also seminal design features that showed up in cars decades later. It was one of the last Art Deco designs before concepts leaned towards futuristic aesthetics."
"A total of five examples were produced with four existing in modern time, one residing at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum located in Auburn Hills, Michigan. Each Thunderbolt was given their own unique color scheme."
