Ever since I rebuilt my car in 1990. When I wind up the engine prior to shifting from first to second or from second to third, I get a backfire and really no power. Once I hit highway speed and back out of the throttle, it runs great. I have done all the tune up many times and changed the cam...

I am going to use a master cyl from a 67 mustang to put on my 55 t-bird. Does anyone know of 90 degree fittings that will screw into the master cyl and then accept standard inverted flare 3/16" brake line nuts?

I read some on this forum about a member having a shifting problem with his three speed overdrive. As I remember something happened in the overdrive an he had no reverse. I have a problem with my three speed overdrive jumping out of second when decelerating. I have done the usual, new second...

Does the steel line running from the carb to the distributer vacuum have ferrels on the end of the line? If not what keeps it from leaking vacuum and not advancing the timing enough under higher RPM?

You guys have helped me with many other questions with my Mercury, so I thought I would ask another one. I have a 1948 Mercury convert. Will the front seats from a 1941 Ford sedan fit in my Mercury?

I have a question about the brake shoes on my 48 car. I am more familiar with the type of brakes that have an adjustment wheel at the bottom of the shoes. My 48 brakes have an eccentric new the top center of the shoes. When this is adjusted out so the brakes drag, what causes' the bottom halve...

I have a 1948 mercury convertible and live in Custer SD. I really need to look at and take pictures of the top on a car. My car did not have anything left on it except the side rails. There was no front or rear bow. I am thinking of ordering a new top and trying to install it myself. That is why...
