This is a disassembled Ron Kelley short block. I believe it’s a 4 inch bore, with original rods that have been machined for inserts. It is a used motor… that being said it should clean up and make a very nice inserted motor for a reasonably cheap cost. The cylinders have surface rust on them...

I have a nice 1929 town sedan I am trying to sell. I do not have a way of posting pictures to the site, but can email/text pictures directly. I’ve got a 1929 town sedan for sale. $12,500 Nice car with a super straight body. Doors close like they should, and do not sag. Fenders are really...

If you’re spending the money to build up a B block and the Miller, spend the money and get two brand new 97’s. You won’t regret the money spent. I’ve probably installed close to 10 now and only had trouble out of one. I buy mine from summit. If you have a problem, you just send it back and they...

New ones are around $100 I believe. So original $125-$150 maybe?

I've run the stock carb, webers, stromberg 81, 48, and 97's. And strombergs are by far my favorite. They're easy to tune, jets are easily accessible, and in my opinion have more "oomf" behind them than a Weber. The Weber is a progressive two barrel where as the stromberg uses 2 barrels all the...

Probably the 8th casting in that batch of pours. My super Winfield is stamped 108, for 108th casting.

Trust me when I say, I've done all this. This isn't my first car that I've built. I physically can not get the ball to line up. I've even dropped the spring out of the cross member, attatched the ball and then jacked the front back up to try to pry it into the crossmember and the center spring...

The U bolts aren't even on it right now, I took everything loose.

Has anyone else experienced this happening? I'm restoring my deluxe phaeton, and i just installed the motor and ****** in the frame over the weekend. When i went to connect the wishbone to the bell housing, it was about 3/4 of an inch to an inch to long to go in the hole... I am 98% sure this is...

Do you have any contact information?

I got a T-5 transmission yesturday while buying some other parts, and I've decided I'm going to put it in my speedster. I like the 4 speed and mitchel set ups better, but in a speedster this transmission set up will be just fine. I tried calling "auto restorations" to talk to them about their...

In my shop, a scuff and shoot starts at $4,000 with absolutely no guarantee of lifetime of paint because the paint job is onlh as good as what's underneath it. That's base/clear and a sealer if needed, and some MINOR body work or chip repair. My full metal up paint jobs usually end up in the...

There is cheaper etch primer out there. You can get gallon set ups for 100-150, I just use the top of the line. On any given car that I paint I have about $2500-3000 in paint material. Some people call that crazy for a model a, but the material is the cheapest part of the whole paint job.

Here is the way i do bondo/body work. And i consider this to be the absolute best way to do it for the longest lifetime of the paint job. First is strip any old paint off by hand, then sand blast. stripping by hand decreases the chances of warping the panel when blasting. Before blasting, i do...

Spray your primer at 25 pounds of pressure and turn your fan patter back a quarter turn and slow down your travel speed. Your gap should be 5-6 inches from the panel, and do a 50/50 over lap. 1.3-1.4 tip should be plenty big for high build primers and sealers. The only time you go bigger is for...

Ken Davis' unit is the best one out on the market right now. He uses old air products which is a very reputable company in the aftermarket a/c world. Ken has been producing these units for 20+ years. I've driven all over the country and out of country with his products (modern shocks, a/c, and...

I'm restoring a '31 tudor deluxe phaeton, and i am in need of some (all) door hinges. Do any other hinges from any other body style cross over to the deluxe phaeton? Or is there anyone that makes reproduction hinges? Or even better, does anybody know where i could buy an original set?
