Re: Break-in gone wrong!
I agree with deuce roadster. Something does not seem right. I am not totally familiar with Ford oil pumps, however I am familiar with metering gear pumps. I have never seen a gear pump that did not...

Re: 1935 21 Stud engine
If you could find a rebuildable engine I would think you could get it rebuilt by someone on the island. How about the guys that rebuilt the La Palma in Santa Cruz. I think they had babbitt pouring...

Re: Saw this on Facebook and just had to share it
I built a boat years ago. I didn't know much about boat building so I bought a book by Howard Schapell. He said right from the start that every shop should have a "moaning chair". I don't see one in...

Re: Violent shake.
"mechanical sound" does not sound good. I would inspect the u joints for play. Slack in the driveline can cause clutch chatter. I had a similar issue that was solved by replacing the u joints.

Re: Does anyone make 32-34 brake drums?
You do not want to put "A" brakes on a 34. The emergency brake, among other things, is completely different and if you want to remain "Henry" correct you would be going backwards. J and G brakes in...

Re: Remember Pearl Harbor
When I was of draft age, i got my notice. I hated the draft. However, I was quick to notice during basic training the positive transformation among our group. Fat guys slimmed down, skinny guys...

Re: Door panel backing material?
Rex Pegg in Tacoma stocks "panel board" for automotive upholstery. I think these guys are wholesale only but I'm sure they would steer you to a shop that handles their materials.

Re: 34 3-Window Seat Adjuster Rods?
The photos you posted (not the red cloth) are correct. At least that is what I have on my 5 window. I don't have access to my car at this time otherwise I would send you a photo but the rods are not...

Re: Good Morning Nice Car conversation
I had a 58 Impala with a 348 and a Turboglide. The sucker calved on Rt128 in Peabody Massachusetts and dumped all its fluid in the middle of the highway. Then it was a slow "glide" to the side of the...

Re: What Have We Here?

Re: Brake troubles
What Coopman says is true. I had the same issues with Speedway drums. Not only were they not machined concentric, they also ran out, meaning they wobbled side to side while turning. I returned them,...

Re: New member, first Ford project
Ok, I'm going to jump into the fray on this taper thing. It's interesting to note that Morse taper drills have a parallel sided tang at the end of the shank. Some would argue that its purpose is for...
