    Can someone with a '55-'56 Ford V8 2 barrel carb and 3 on the tree take a picture of your car's throttle linkage and return springs showing the bellcrank and linkage from the arm on the firewall to the bellcrank?

    I have a distributor from a '57 Merc 312 with new points, condensor, cap, and rotor ready to go. Do I need to change the carburetor to run it on my '55 272?

    Source for speedo housing clamps '55 Ford

    Does anybody know where I can get the clamps (4 of them per car) that hold the speedometer/gauge cluster assembly to the dash on '55 Ford cars. Or does anybody have some on a parts car?

    Is Lawson Cox still around?

    Glad to know he is still with us. His late brother Felix was chairman of the pastor search committee when I became pastor of Woolford Memorial Baptist Church in Baltimore in '89.

    Is Lawson Cox still around?

    He's in his 90s if he is. Haven't seen any posts from him in a while. Good guy. Bought a NOS '38-'39 big truck radiator from him to use in my '38 pickup.

    55 Fairlane gauge panel removal

    Yes, those four nuts hold 4 clamping pieces. Remove those, and the speedometer and gauge cluster assembly lifts out easily. You will find the job much easier if you have a universal joint beween your wrist and your elbow.
