Hey guys, I am seeking opinions and information on some heads I have. They are 24 stud. They are Canadian. They are NOS (i guess). I guess I wonder if they are milled and wall hangers or something else. Talked to a local guru and we looked at other heads and the thought they are not milled...

There have been a lot of posts negative about how it was not going to happen. Well it's on!!!, so I hope it gets the same attention. https://msrabacktothe50s.com/

So I'm not a big T5 transmission swap guy. I'm a fan of the bango as designed and a 3 sp or od, But what does this do for the guys that are looking? Not having to hunt a s10 trans down? https://americanpowertrain.com/the-all-new-tremec-tkx-is-here/

Just received an email confirming an order I didn't make. Checked my credit cards, no charges. Maybe don't click any links if you receive one (fishing scam). Call from the number on their website. Email was for a part I ordered years ago to an old address.

I know this is better served in the wanted section. But I'm looking for a 1938-39 ford door hinge pin mirror. I can get an aftermarket one. I prefer not. A good original if available, pm. I don't check in here as much lately, probably a good thing for everyone else :). Thanks guys. Did a 30...

Was able to get out and do some spring time maintenance. I gas primed the 38, but just pulled the choke on the 36 after 5 months of sitting. Lube done. Diff checked. Tire air.... Only thing to check is the transmission oil level and an engine oil change. Be well!

That was supposed to be Deuce Coupe before you all get hung up on it. Are there a lot of stock 32s out there? I can say I've not seen one live outside a museum collection. Maybe I need to get out more often. :)

Fox body mustang with a flathead on turbos or charger... Bit out of round here. https://www.hotrod.com/articles/flathead-powered-fox-body-mustang-land-speed-car/ .

Ya I know this is not the right forum. But we have opinions. I can't call it a true truck but I like it. I'm weird. I also think if Ford turned out a basic truck at a cheap price (25-30k) it'd sell well. no fancy electronics and a bit of power with a new multi-geared modern speed...

We all (i'm guessing) know this story fairly well about shelby and the Ford gt40. I'll probably wait for it to come out on netflix or whatever to pick apart, haha. Looks like a very fun movie! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyYgDtY2AMY .

This stuff changes all the time and opinions differ. I have no preference or advocate any contact. Just a collection of peoples posts here. Maybe this is just a list for maybe someone new to look at and ask. Not a bad idea to ask around either for a local guy or help. I can add or delete...

What a spitfire and spirit, always going for it. Sad to hear. https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/28/us/jessi-combs-race-car-driver-death-trnd/index.html The fastest lady on 4 wheels. Certainly someone we need to know...

So there was a post on field grounding regulators/generators. How does this apply to cutouts and how to field direct generators on cutouts? .

Okay so I've told I need start a thread... I guess. Can someone explain why disconnecting a lead at the battery and you get sparks, is certainly a short. I can take a two leads and make a spark every time? I have decent ford electrical knowledge. Just curious? .

Saw this on another forum. Thought it was interesting. Know nothing about it, nor was any supplied. Know there are some plane buffs here. Very nice craftsmanship.

I have a question for a friends motor. 1940 motor. used condition. Engine was torn down and bearings checked (plastigauge) in range. Piston to cylinder wall checked on top (with feeler gauge .001) Compression is around 100 +/- 5lbs on all cyclinders. New gaskets, no mixing of coolant and oil...

I know this isn't correct in forum, we are restorers, me included as best as I can. Just cataloging some old magazines from the 50s (54-58) and scanned a few to share for fun It's interesting...maybe, and I tried to keep to flathead stuff. Lots of great info on engine hopups in these and some...

So I'm sitting here listening to hockey on the radio and surfing. I came across this coupe on social media from new zealand. Maybe I'm stepping some boundaries by re-posting the images. But it's such a change I thought it's worth it. Previous on the bottom. Might be a member here also. I do...

Delete, as it's political. Just thought it was important! It was suspected, but a sad day. Quite the man. shot down for us. Quite the patriotic man to say the least. One of the greats.

Is it weird that i have to go to the hamb now to see cars built in the period. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/the-tale-of-my-29.1114472/ I'm not totally ignorant to mods a few years apart. Fairly common. Curious on thoughts...
