I read that article. I posted a comment Re: Why our cars were left off the list. Several others commented that our hoods are not true NACA inlets because they are not flush to the surface. I fired back that our car look better than the 69 Shelby they chose. I always thought the 69 Shelby's...

E-bay reports to the IRS as well. I have a few acquaintances that sold pricey items on E-bay and had to pay the feds. I do not know what the reporting threshold at E-bay is. Cash is king while it still exists otherwise II just use my credit card to by things online. I never use a debit card for...

You are welcome and I hope it works for you. I have had good luck with it. There are some You tube videos out there regarding the subject.

Peppermint oil may work for squirrels. It works well at repelling mice. Ron

I like the the Summit version of the Holley 4010/4011 series. Holley discontinued the 4010/4011 model carbs in 1998. Summit was smart to bring them back. In essence the 4010 and 4011 were loosely based on the Autolite 4100. Furthermore, Annual boosters do a better job with fuel distribution than...

I would recommend ditching the fancy braided hoses and going to a good quality standard rubber heater hose. The hoses you have serve only one purpose: Look cool and cause problems. Ron

Welcome from Rhode Island. The 390 FE was not an option in 71-73 Mustangs. I am pretty sure the 390 FE family could only be had in trucks by that point. It is still cool and unique. Best of all it is a Ford engine in a Ford. If it had a small block Chevy I would feel different. Ron

I used the Plast-Kote #224 on my 72 and it matches very well to the factory paint that was on my engine.

Salt is an issue here in RI as well. I feel your pain. We have had substantial amounts of rainfall which also includes tonight's rain. All the salt will be gone by Sunday. Ron

May God bless you and your wife's soul. She will always be with you. Ron

Don't be jealous, it would have been much easier if I could have done the engine job in the new garage. Had it existed at the time. Hey, you got it done and that is what matters. There is honor in overcoming adversity. BTW, I am still paying for that garage. LOL. Ron

It is 28 by 28. The funny thing is that the 2 times I pulled my engine I was in a the 1 car garage of the house I grew up in and then the second time was in the basement garage of my house. Both garages were on the tight side. But I got it done. This picture is from 2015 when I first finished...

The lift is the one thing I absolutely had to have.

The most common issue I have seen with degraded fuel hoses is the tank to the pump hose becoming spongy and collapsing cutting off fuel flow to the pump. I agree with you on flushing brake fluid and brake fluid is still pretty cheap if bought in quantity. I perform a fluid flush on my cars every...

You guys in Canada have it tough. Road trips can be fun. We go to Vermont to see my mother in law regularly. Things will hopefully turn around in this mad World. God speed. Ron

If the Fed hikes interest rates even a quarter % this coming week, shipping costs will become the least of our concerns. I have been in a spending on hobbies holding pattern for a while. I am thinking that will be my course of action for the next 2 years. Not a joke.

Welcome from Rhode Island. Ron

I remember Aretha driving on the "Freeway of love". The very end of the video has a cool shot of a train full of Mustangs cruising down the tracks. I always wondered if my car was on that train. Ron

Vertical is the way to go. They take up less space. I have a 30 gallon De Walt that replaced my Craftsman 25 gallon horizontal oil-less that I bought when I was 19. It blew it's cookies at the most inopportune time. Although that purchase initiated me getting my first credit card. The oil-less...
