    Cheap Internal Upgrades?

    Guess old Henry is an Idiot. My minivan has a O2 sensor, not my flathead. Have a good day guys. Sorry for striking some chords LOL

    Anybody putting O2 sensors on a flathead is an idiot in my opinion. Just don't seem right.

    Rocky Mountain High Road Trip

    Quote: "They were self proclamed "Car Guys" and had old flathead Ford's themselves. I put them in as a sampling of the myriad of "Ooglers" I had along the whole trip -" Nice trip, but what does it take to be a real "Car Guy"?

    I ended up fitting some LED lights in the cluster. They work pretty good. Good luck

    1950 f1 gas tank fitting

    You can stop the flow but in my experience, if you mess with the valve too much then it will start to leak a little.

    Flathead folklore, were did you find yours...

    Mine sat 34 years in the truck with no oil pan on it. Previous owner spun the center main bearing and started to work on it then stopped and left it all that time. The block was frozen when I got it, but I managed, over a period of a month little by little, to get it to turn over.

    1949 Ford F3

    Good luck on the F-3. Maybe I'm biased, but I love to see these things on the road. I downloaded a speedometer App on my phone and used it to see if my speedometer on the truck was accuarate. I hit 73 mph and could not get it to go any faster. I have changed the rear axle to a DANA 60 with 4:10...

    1950 f1 directional lights
