Sold my 28 coupe last year as we were moving house - I am so missing the old girl, we had a proper love hate relationship and she taught me a whole lot along the way. I really want another coupe, looks like I am going...

    So disapointed in Macs

    Macs Antique Auto Parts – An Ecklers Company. By far the worst service I have EVER received from a USA based supplier. I have spent quite a lot of money with this supplier as I have a 55 Chevy & a 28 Ford – But I will not send them one more penny not if they were the last supplier in...

    6 lbs pressure

    Fit an inline regulator - just before carbs a set it at about 4lbs, that will be more than enough pressure.

    Axle bearing race - how bad is to bad ??

    I look at it this way - it has taken 80 plus years to get this far - most probably used a lot more in the 1st 40 years - how many miles are we realistically going to put on it now & how long have we personally got to last. I know my old coupe will see me out. Happy trails Bob

    Bend the gear shifter?

    3 people in a coupe !!!! I was out with a buddy in my 28 yesterday and he remarked how very small the cabin was on this ship. Thank goodness we did not take the goat with us.

    Backing up in the dark

    I was out in the 28 coupe late last night and found myself on an unlit road where I had to back up to turn around, as I looked over my shoulder to look out the back I could see nothing but the reflection from the front. It was like the upright front & rear screens were bouncing against each...

    v8 hbackolding

    Right chaps - I took the air filter off - no change there. Checked inlet manifold bolts and surprisingly a few were quite loose !! Thanks ken. I am now thinking that maybe this is just how a FH V8 is typically. Bob
