    Kwiklift back in business

    I just saw on another site that they are back in business. I bought a used one and they are great for working on our cars. Much safer than jack stands. Also they are still made here in the US. It's great to see an American company come back.

    Snyder's has their high compression heads on sale

    I was at Snyders this morning and they had a pallet of 5.5 to 1 and 6 to1 heads on sale. I was told they are seconds that were tested and proven ok. Most had little visual blems but nothing that would affect their performance. I bought a 5.5 to one one that has some tiny voids. I had to look for...

    K&N replacement for Air Maze

    I'm not sure if this has been posted before but I didn't see it in the archives. I found the replacement no. for the K&N replacement for the high volume Air Maze filter. You will have to use a piece of all thread and a wingnut to extend a standard length filter. The K&N no. is E-9257. This is...

    Headlight adjustment.

    I installed the 6volt quartz light kit that includes the reflectors. My coupe came to me with the sealed beam headlight conversion. So I bought the whole kit and had an extra set of lenses. My problem is the buckets angle up alittle so my lights are too high. Since the kit doesn't use the stock...

    Mom and Pop hardware store

    As I was returning home from my 3rd trip of the day from our local hardware store which is about a mile from my house I thought about how lucky I am to still have them there. When working on my coupe and I need a bolt, some sheetmetal or some tool I need because I just broke mine, they always...

    Wheel color suggestions for black coupe

    Hi guys, I would like opinions on what color to paint my new to me 16" rims with black wall radials. The 19" rims that came with it are straw colored. They look pretty good, but I was thinking about painting the 16" ones some shade of red. This car is going to be my driver and is mostly, but not...

    Floor bolt question.

    I have a 30 coupe and when I bought it it didn't have the 12 bolts in the floorboards. Can anybody tell me what size they are? I know they have a cup under the head but what is the size and length of the bolt? The head in the picture looks like an oval head. Thanks.

    Strange front motor mount?

    My 30 coupe has alot of vibration. Decided to check the motor mounts. The front one consisted of a big rubber donut on the center stud under the front yolk. The donut just sits on top of the crossmember. It actually comes up around the bottom of the pully in front. On the bottom of the...

    KwikLift question

    I just purchased a KwikLift but I didn't get any crossover bridges. Could somebody take a picture of theirs and give me some dimensions so I can make some. I may go a little wider though as I read that was a complaint that they weren't wide enough. Also are there any other mods that would make...

    Help with shocks

    When I bought my 30 coupe it did not have front shocks on it. He gave them to me but they are frozen. I do have a spare set that I got with my 30 Fordor. I was told that they work good. They are marked Ford, Chicago, Ill. My question is since they aren't marked Left-Right how do I know which way...

    oil leak

    I recently bought a 30 coupe and I'm new so I looked through the archives but didn't find a solution for my problem. I have a bad oil leak but it doesn't seem to leak when running. (Except when it overheated once it left a trail of oil down the street and driveway.) When I shut it off it...

    Steering box removal question

    I just aquired a 30 coupe and I think I need to remove the steering box. It has alot of play in the sector shaft that the drag link connects to. It moves quite abit back and forth and also a little up and down. Everything else in the front end seems nice and snug. So I'm assuming I need to...
