Thanks guys. I got to mess with it a little bit today, and its running quite well now. I really need to get some wheels and tires for this thing now!

I'm looking for some 16x5 steel wheels 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern, with the innie hubcap nubs. They are going on a '64 F100

Well, the fuel issue is solved. I feel like a bit of a bonehead, but sometimes I am! It would appear that the previous owner had the fuel pump hooked up backwards, and as a result, so did I. I was in bed doing some research on Y blocks last night when I noticed how the fuel pump was hooked...

Hey guys, I posted this over on the HAMB, but thought it would be wise to ask here as well. I'm messing with a Y block for the first time. Trying to get it fired up, but I have no fuel getting to the carb. The vehicle is a '64 F100 with what I believe to be the factory 292 Y block. I put new...

Ok great. Thanks guys.

So do rebuild parts not exist? Or am I left to my own devices?

Sorry, I've haven't been on here for a bit. Here is a manual I got a link to off this site for rebuilding. http://www.oldcarmanualproject.com/manuals/Ford/Haudaille/pages/Houdaille%2000_jpg.htm

That's a good idea. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks

Hey guys, I've got these shocks I'm planning on using on a current project. It is my understanding that these shocks were used from'38-'48. I've found info on rebuilding, but not any info on where you can get parts and/or seals. Please understand, I am not looking for a rebuilding service, I am...

I'll be using SPI epoxy primer pretty soon on an OT project. It was recommended to me by a high end painter who uses a lot of PPG products. It's priced well too.

I checked the friction disc on the extra distributor I have for my '37 engine, and it is indeed 5/8" diameter. I'm in for a couple.

Is it stock intake? We had a situation with an aftermarket intake where it didn't have heat risers in the intake, but it also didn't block them off at the block. We didn't notice that till we had excessive smoke.

Guess you didn't read the original post.

Stock intake? I came across a situation recently where an aftermarket intake didn't have an exhaust crossover, but also nothing to block it off, so if you didn't block the ports in the block, it would put exhaust in the valley, which would make the oil black, among other issues.

'40 Merc

I've got a 1940 Mercury frame for sale. It's in great shape. The only issues are some damage to the center of the rear crossmember, and a little rust in the passenger frame rail where the rear of the X-member meets the frame rail.

You could also look at McMasterCarr. you won't be able to handle it before buying, but they have a lot of info on the switches, along with drawings showing dimensions.

I had the same issue on an off topic engine. Puller wouldn't fit, but did the grease trick. Next time I had to do it, I did bread because it sounded so weird, I had to try it. Sure enough, worked like a charm, and was much easier to clean up then the grease.

A little bit further, but we just did a good amount of repair work on a Mullins trailer over at Hollywood Hot Rods in Burbank. 818-842-6900
