There´s always a differen´t way of doing it.... Sold a couple of engine donuts and customer complained that it didn´t get any better installing the new ones... It takes some determination and a grinder to be able to not get a single piece installed in the right place..:D

It´s a bad day when... Oilpan is filled with more metal then oil... Rod bearings are bluer then the sky... Pistons look like they had a rough date with a course file... And the reason for all this is that someone descided that knurling anything inside the engine is a great solution instead of...

So in theese days i thought you may need a laugh... When i´m to busy running around in the shop loosing track of time my sweet wife usually comes down with a cup of coffee and a cookie and tells me time to sit down... So she did yeasterday to...but a customer dropped a crankshaft outside the...

So what do i have here ? Some kind of later replacement block ? It has the early front that will pass a pencil test. Later exhaust outlets that are not sticking out a lot. Raised intake deck. I have bored it 3 3/16 and it has a LOT of meat left...i think it would take .125 more and be .100 left...

Have a good laugh at my expense ! So my dad bought a -41 on distance. Seller said it needed upholstery and that he drove it in his driveway last year. So how bad can it be... When time for picking it up arrives the seller offers a free donor car to go with it...hmmm Back in MN trailer hooked up...

It´s installed on a -41 car. The original ford parts tag said 21A... Fits nicely to the glass...middle section for the strip with the 3 holes looks the same... But it shure don´t fit that great to the body :D

I´ve been pretty lucky not having trespassers coming into the yard. Sweden is invaded by scrapmetal thieves from who knows where that gets caught and police let´t them out the next day.... So this weekend disaster struck me badly. Breaking into a coldstorage they found 50+ radiators going from...

Bringing this Schramm aircompressor back to Sweden. Would be nice to have some sales litterature and a correct colour code for it. It´s in pretty rough shape but all the important pieces seems to be there.

I know this is not ford related...just engine from back then... A bit of a challenge to deal with a 10,5" bore cylinder....not even the FL boringbar with oversize cutters will take it...but it´s something different. It´s an early rawoil "diesel" engine used in a museum sawmill.

This visitor in shop is heading back to it´s owner today. Was kind of an love and hate affair to fit the flathead in it...even if it was built that way in -37 years of "evolution" and no real solid documentation made it a trial and error job.

Looking for a descent set of rear fenders for a 1935 1/2 ton pickup. Thanks Murre

Little curious what you people like in valve tools. This is the one i like the best.

Im going to tool up the lathe and make some valveguides with undersized stems. And while at it i thought of making some with a longer valvespringseat and some with oversized outer diameter. Any special or odd ones you guys need while am tooled up ?

Im about to start a new project and picked out a couple of frames in need of repair. They all have differenses in the frame stamping and holes for crossmembers one is a 37 that i can tell but the rest should be 35/36. Are there a good guide to id them around ?
