    Are "$ Doors Classics"

    Appreciate the replies and as obvious is the "difference" of opinion when it comes to "Classic Cars". I the "Car World" you have: Cassics, Vintage, Antiques, and Collectibles; all carrying different definitions and a difference in definitions among the owners and some Clubs. I guess it comes...

    Where to Start - Winter Project

    Daves55Sedan: I truly appreciate the reply and suggestions....but all I want to do is "replace the spring"...LOL, but again let me ask: Right where the throttle linkage return assembly sits at the flywall is, what looks like a "turnbuckle" adjustment rod; you can adjust it by turning; what is...

    Where to Start - Winter Project

    Wow! Some "Great" - where to start suggestions.....truly appreciate it. Everything seems tight, I really think the "greasing" will help out a lot....and little adjustment of the steering box, and a new set of shocks. While I got the group here; my throttle linkage was a little, well she...

    Selling a "Classic"

    I Can't Stop My Clutch Chatter On My '53!

    I know this is an old subject, the latest post-2020, but maybe someone will read this. On my 54 Ford Customline, V8 Y Block; I'll get chatter when I slowly start off, but if I feather the throttle, a little more RPM, No Chatter; I've been driving it like that No Chatter going from 1st to 2nd...

    Selling a "Classic"

    When I sell cars I try hard to explain the car in the description; but what I am getting at is when you are looking at a 70-year-old car, that is not a Barett Jackson Car, not a "Body Off Restoration", somewhat of simply a "Survivor", well you have to, should consider that a lot of "hands" have...

    Selling a "Classic"

    I just want to share this with the group; actually, I just want to "Vent" a little. So, I have this 1954 Ford Customline I recently picked up; and like all my "finds", I usually enjoy them, find out as much as I can about them, and often "flip them", just to see what else is out there and...

    First Ford Y Block (V8) Which Came with an Alternator

    Contacted a few of the "suggested contacts" that this group gave and received some great information; with all the suggestions here is where I am at with my thoughts: 1. Purchase the suggested "Y-Block Alternator Bracket" currently on the market 2. Purchase a "New", Tuff Stuff Model #7098...

    6 Volt to 12 Volt Conversion 1954 Y Block

    Response: When I "connected" the one-wire alternator, I started her up and put the meter on her and it was not recording a "charge". But I found out that the one-wire alternators need to get a good 2-2.5 RPM put to them before they begin to charge, and excite them; I was testing it at the idle...

    First Ford Y Block (V8) Which Came with an Alternator

    Appreciate the tip KULTULZ, but right now just want whatever alternator I put on her to "charge the battery", and accessories I'll deal with later; as for a New Wiring Harness, or looking "factory", not worried about that at this point just want to get her on the road, maybe an Ohio winter...
