Thanks.

What is the distance between the mounting bolts of the two headlight buckets?

Ok, now, this is MY thread and I dont allow bickering. ...LOL I like a good debate, but not bikering. We can all have a difference of opinion without getting "into it" with each other. If we must fight, the old way out was to drive out to the Torry Pines cliff over the Pacific and run...

I fully respect the people who are purists. I belong to the Rolls Royce club and the Jaguar club. The idea of a chevvy powered Jag is distasteful. BUT, The people I disagree with are those that have carved out a distinction between Hot Rot and Rat Rod, and were not there from the beginning...

Well I appreciate your concern, but I didnt thinkI got a cool reception! In fact I got a very warm reception from just about everybody. Thanks to all who encouraged me.

Well, I thought the whole thing was about Flatheads. Secondly, I never said it was a restored or about to be restored truck. I stated from the get go that is was a Hot Rod and I wanted to put a period Flathead in it. I guess you two guys would really enjoy that English site. They wouldnt...

Its got a TH400 Automatic ****** in it. Picked it up yesterday morning in St Louis. Only two things noted, the electric fuel pump is not functioning ($40 will fix that) and the right front brake caliper was frozen and had to be dismantled to move the car. ($150 should fix that). All in...

Well.........not to start an argument....but I didnt bring it up..... 1)I dont see paint being a reasonable criteria. I have seen glossy paintjobs that look worse than a good flat paint. 2) I grew up with hot rods in the 1950s, graduated HS in '54. Hot rods are any car with a non stock...

so what is the distinction? A paint job???

Should be there if we look hard enough.....cant see how all three of them could get erased accidentally. Thanks.

My guy picked up my truck this morning in St Louis and could NOT find the original Ford serial number on the chassis. Maybe we are looking in the wrong place, or maybe it was ground off in the process of remaking the chassis for a hot rod. Anyone able to tell me where to look for that serial...

I just acquired a '37 Ford PU Hot Rod that has a Caddy 500 engine installed. I want to remove that engine and replace it with a Flathead. I tried to join another Flathead group that appears to be based in the UK and was told I could NOT use my email address on that list. No explanation, but...
