Re: Gauge clock repair
I used Bob's to rebuild all the gauges in my 34 Buick coupe a number of years ago.

Re: This popped up on YouTube
To the best of my recollection: In the 30's, 40's, and 50's, the oil changing
interval's was recommended every 1,000 miles.
Also I remember the new cam bearings after the 312 c.i, engine came out...

Re: Interesting Article - WW2 Ford Variants
I have seen a lot of military vehicles during my military career, but never
like these three. Love um!
Looks like the rear end has chains to the wheels from a single axle.
Thanks for sharing.

Re: rear end suggestions
Don't know if you are looking for fuel economy or low rpm cruise, but your
3.10:1 ratio with the AOD in over drive will be 2.33:1, and in high will be
back to 3.10:1.
Hope this helps.

Re: Ford V8
WOW !!
I have owned a couple of 34's and one 33 in the past, and only knew about
the grill bezel difference.
Thanks to all for explanations.

Re: Ford V8
JFMI- How do you tell the difference?
P.S. I do know one difference, is the 33 grill bezel is thinner (narrower) than the 34.
Thanks
