    Engine remanufacturer

    This isn't exactly early V8, it's about the flat six in my '49 F-2. The engine I installed in 40 years ago is tired. It's rebuildable but I have another engine I pulled out of parts truck 10+ years ago. I pulled it apart to see the internal condition and it's in better shape than the one that...

    Front clip, 1967 Ford full size car

    I have a front clip for a 1967 full sized Ford car. It's in pretty decent shape. The grill and headlight surrounds are nice. The bottom rear on the driver's fender is rusted out and would need to be patched. The top of the inner fenders have rust holes and the bumper is straight but would need...

    Model Ts to War

    I just saw a very interesting show on Public TV about WW1 and Model Ts. I did a search and didn't find any posts about it. It's been around a while but this is the first time I saw it. I have never posted in this forum, I deal with newer trucks, '48-50, but I thought some of you might enjoy it...

    GPS and cell phone on a 6 volt system

    Before I start this post I want to acknowledge I found most of this information on the Model A board on the Ford Barn site and the HAMB. I recently made a 1600 mile round trip in my stock '49 Ford F-2 3/4 ton pickup. For added convenience and safety I wanted to use my GPS system and charge my...

    1 ton and up truck wheels

    I have a set of 7 19.5" five hole truck rims from a RV. These have the same 5 bolt pattern as early '40s to mid '50s bigger Ford trucks, F-4 through F-6. The bolt pattern is also the same for the same vintage Dodge, Studebaker and International trucks. Replace those Widow Makers no one will...

    Cleaning threaded block holes

    This subject was raised on the FTE site. Is it a bad thing to do clean out the threaded head bolts holes in a flathead block with a regular tap? I hope not, that is what I just did with the block I am trying to clean up.:eek:

    Cracked EAB head, what to do.

    I searched the forum and didn't find anything that dealt with type of crack in a head. The crack is on the outside of the head. I found this engine in an old garage behind a truck I bought. When we pulled the truck out we found it laying on it's side. The spark plugs were missing on one side and...

    I bought a '48 panel truck today, along with it came two flatties. One from a '52 F-6 the other the guy said it was out of a Crown Vic, I think he said a '52 also. The heads on the Crown Vic engine has EAB on them, is different than the one from the truck? Also, the transmission is a 3 speed...

    Headlight Trim Ring

    Before I get heat, I'm a Ford truck guy. I've been working on '48-50 for 30+ year. I just happen to need help with a another project. I have an off topic car, a '37 Buick, that I need to find the headlight trim rings for. No one reproduces them so I am hoping to find a set from a more...

    Why doesn't everyone list their location? I've noticed a lot of posters don't have their location listed below their avatars. When people post questions about problems their having with their vehicles or are looking for places to find parts or services it would come in handy to know your...

    Just curious, is there enough interest for other boards?

    Shelly started the Chevy Barn. I never went there so I don't know if it died because it wasn't viable or just too much work. The HAMB covers all marques of cars when it comes to hot rods but there's not a lot of interest in people who are doing stock restorations. I am doing a stock, or close...
