Hurray for a great starting car. You are being very thorough and that is great. Better safe than sorry for sure.

Lots of great progress for sure. Be glad when my surgery fixes my neck so I can get back on mine.

We use to put Chevy dizzy i a Ford just change gear and make the housing fit and put it in. I vote to putting two roll pins in. Higher or lower at 90 deg. I was tool & die maker so I have the tools and access to a Bridgeport mill also. The screen on the oil pick up would stop any piece of...

I ordered a rebuild kit from Mike for my 73 Q code. I had put everything in and was going to put the carb together and the gaskets were not spreadbore. When I contacted him he said I did not tell him which carb I had. There was only one and he would not make the kit good. Will never go back...

They were all flex fans originally no clutch. There was a recall due to fans breaking and actually killed a couple people. I never took my 73 in for the recall so it has the killer fan on it and yes it is flex. I ordered new and one ower.

I have not had to have one rebuilt in years. One of two times I took my car to have work done. The guy at the Ford dealership in Hendersonville did my C-6 in Econoline van and was great. He has long since retired. I would suggest that you take the fluid lines off and flush very good. Then put...

On standard interior the dash and pad are Ginger, Steering wheel Ginger. Steering column is black I believe. Seat belts are also black I believe.

As long as the publication does not have a Copyright symbol on it you are ok to scan and post.

I would have thought the assist spring was the same on manual or pw. Do not know that but I can maybe compare I have both.

Just some info. One of our members Toni drove his Mach 1 from Wisconsin. He has fuel injection so he has a temperature reading for incoming air. He also put a switch on his ram air flaps so he can keep them open all the time. He said the air temp going into the engine drops either 15 or 18 deg...

I use to have them go bad a lot on a 1969 Ford van with 9" rear. I kept spares with me and tools to change. If the outer is not already broken I would break it with hammer, cover the bearing with rag to prevent pieces flying and hitting you. I then would take a propane torch and head the inner...

I also put a stand alone trans cooler works great. I used a Hayden with electric fan also. Takes the transmission heat out of the radiator and the fluid is much cooler going back to the transmission. I made a couple brackets that used fasteners that were in the radiator support and grill...

You should keep the old axle. You can remove the studs and put in lathe and run between the centers in the axle and take a skim cut on the face and put new studs in.

I was just at Carlisle and pedals were $450. If you have to buy everything from rear yoke to the block / crank it usually costs about $2,000 that includes the 4 speed.

Yes the price is fair. The block is same as 4 bolt and can be machined to accept 4 bolt caps. The parts you mentioned missing would be replaced in a normal rebuild anyway and would save shipping not there. Many people prefer the 2-V heads for street use.

Been a while since this was up. Someone stated very late build. Year model switch to 1973 would have been started over the July 4th. holiday of 1972. They must have been waiting on something to come in to build that one. I have one that sat for months after VIN assigned before build. For sure...

You got to aim high.

I knew the Badlands and been to Cody several times for the Winchester museum. I did not see the Corn palace in Mitchel SD.

I am retired now but I am a professional goof off. I buy cars I do not need, grow a garden that I cannot eat, date women much younger than me, shoot animals and put them on my plate beside the veges from the garden. Drink way too much blended whiskey. Life is good. When working I had to sit in...

Hers is a newer one no chance for me.
