I know this is probably best left for the H.A.M.B but I searched and couldn't find direct part numbers. Who has used aerostar springs with isolators and if so, what parts did you use and where did you get them? I've ordered some Moog CC850's and some pancake bump stops.

Well today was an interesting day. Tried to get an oil change done. I always wondered why the existing oil filter was so short. Turns out that the standard size won't clear the engine cross member. A few symptoms added up too. Throttle and transmission linkages didn't look right, exhaust...

Hi there, I have a 56 ford victoria, M code, with what I thought was the original engine and transmission. I have a clanking noise at idle that goes away with revs and is not really audible whilst driving. Suspecting that its the rivets on the flexplate, I pulled off the cover on the lower...

Does anyone know the thread size or fitting name needed to fit into the brass inlet fitting on the back of the teapot? Could it be a tapered fitting or a flare fitting?

I've been trying to source rear drums for a 56 Victoria with a stock rear end. Now I know MACs sell some but they are quite pricey and people I know have had quality issues with them in the past. I'm also on the other side of the world that doesn't help the price point either. I wondered if...

Hi All, I thought I'd post my results of using a Holley 4000 Teapot with a 60's y block distributor. Using a 3/8 UNF block off I have plugged the front vacuum port. I have removed the spark valve and fitted a standard Holley power valve block off in its place. I have supplied vacuum to the...

Hi, I was wondering how to get the wiper switch out. I've removed the vacuum motor and now would like to get the switch out. I'm going to order the newport kit and I'm wanting to take the old switch out to see what I will have to work with in the dash for mounting the new switch. Thanks

Hi, Can you guys tell me if this really is a 56 licence plate light?... it looks nothing like the busted thing that came out and I don't have the mounting holes in the body either. The light I'm looking at is here...

Hi Guys, I've repaired the rear inner and outer drivers quarter of my 56 fairlane. For one reason or another (mostly stupidity) I forgot to make holes for the fuel tank breather tube that goes from under the car, through the rear inner quarter and through the trunk inside above the tail pan...

Hi Barners, I've an opportunity to buy 2 speed ford-o-matic supposedly from a 1960 Galaxie. I own a 56 Victoria with the stock air-cooled 3 speed auto. The stock 3 speed is leaking trans fluid pretty hard and I want to pull it out for a rebuild/repair. My question is, could I chuck in this 2...

So my fairlanes rockers are rusty as... I've started the passenger rocker re-repair. The rockers were patched over sometime in the cars history. The welding was crap and the panel fit was poor as your would expect. I've pulled off the patch and un-picked the the factory spot welds to remove...

Hello Barn'rs I need help identifying this. Please see picture. It's the bit that attachs to the underside of the fender. It's got heaps of rust holes in it. I'm hoping to find a replacement... I need left and right. Thanks Geoff
