    Radiator hoses for 55 Fairlane with 312

    Thanks for confirming my thoughts. The engine is not original to the car and is running a 4 bbl Holley. After the new hoses it’s over to a local Idaho Chariots member for rewiring. Whoever converted from 6 to 12 volts really didn’t have a clue as to what he was doing.

    Fires in California

    I flew from Boise, Idaho to San Diego, California earlier today. As we flew over Yosemite and the Sierras, there was smoke all around us in all directions. Approaching L.A. was the same. Thoughts and prayers to all affected.

    Replacing gas tank 55 Club Sedan

    I need to replace my rusty gas tank. What I'm wondering is if I could use a larger tank from a 56 or 57. I'd really like to carry more than 14 gallons Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
