funny... This blasphemous posta has more responses than any other in the T section... Back to work keeping old cars from the wrecking yard.

Got the windshield removed. 80 yr old flathead screws are terrible. But I only broke one. The frame is coming along nicely. Need to get new wnidow seals (all of them) and possibly a w/shield frame. All but one (rf) window regulates are there. Next week, it's a roller and floor fab begins!

They keep it closed on the freeway. Hotrodeleather.com

Crappy chrome waterneck leaks a little. Front dipstick tube seal also. 80mph on the freeway, 160*, I ain't gonna complain. Now, if I can get it to hold still long enough to swap front springs, we'll be golden like front teeth in the ghetto!

More progress in ressurecting Henry's finest.....nevermind.

I used a conversion based on a Hot rod works. My dad was a toolmaker for GM. See the connection? I ran a '36 banjo behind my 286 Flatty/5 Spd combo. Worked great. Low $$ fir what you gain.

I want my stock speedo to work. Have a 302/C6 in my Shoebox. Any ideas? I usually don't work with these newer cars ;). Help me out.....please.

Put about 400 miles on it this week so far. Jenny took the girls to Girl Scouts tonight. Picked up pizza and beer. Neighbors drove to Detroit fir a concert. Ugly but it sure goes where it needs to!

Repairable. Call Mike at H&H. They can fix damn near anything!

Guys, Don't get me wrong. I fully appreciate damn near any old car. I'd love to have a stock A or T. Do I gave the patience to maintain one for how often I would drive it? Probably not. I do, however, have the skills, tools, friends, and knowhow to build a period correct hot rod. Nothing...

Who wants to race?
