Re: Hirsch Auto Auction Sale
Yes, age. That brings up another good point. There are lots of small businesses out there owned by folks who want to retire. There are little buyers for these businesses. Young folks can't afford to...

Re: Hirsch Auto Auction Sale

Re: Oil leak
Pulling the engine won't be as much trouble as you think. I had the engine, transmission and rear end out of my '37 tudor in about 6 hours. I was working by myself until I needed a hand for a few...

Re: 59-AB engine components
Egge for pistons and rings. If it's a stock engine, vavles and springs from the usual sources. I like 3rd Gen Automotive but I'm biased. I used NOS bearings on my last build.

Re: 6volt led headlights
I never had any luck with them. He kept insisting that my Ford headlight sockets were Plymouth. I finally just gave up. He also wasn't much help ordering.

Re: rebuild engine
I always like to rebuild my own. I take the parts to a machine shop and I put it together. That way I know what I get. There many "rebuilt" engines out there with a valve job and new rings.

Re: Opinion Re Differential Gear Ratio
I like what Brent said. My 1937 Ford Tudor has a 85 hp V8, 16 in wheels and a 3.25 rear gear. It will drive down the highway very well. I'm in flat land country, no mountains.
