i've checked with some local guys, but no one seems to have the 1966 mar-april edition of marc with plans for the dust pans.. thanks to bob johnson for the date of this article. can anyone out there make a copy of this article and snail mail or email it to me. help greatly appreciated.
 
Larry, are you wanting to see the article so you have dimensions to fabricate a set of engine pans, -or is there more to having that article. I have many old original engine pans that could either be restored or be used to pattern from if that helps.
 
i enjoy making things for ,my self so i'd like to see the article. i need a set of pans for the speedster i'm building as well as a friend just bought a beautiful older restoration that is missing the pans, so i'll probably be making two sets. i might be into a set of older pans for a pattern if reasonable. ... i just realised we have communicated before , i'm over in h'ville n.c. so if we make a deal i wouldn't mind making a run up there(1 1/2 hr ride +-). let me know or give me a call.... 828-699-1425

Strange stuff going on - I also don't see the link to the plans that Bob gave in the other thread - the only place I see the link is if I search for that particular post in Bob's profile. If I quote Bob's #3 post the link to plans is there, yet if I preview that quote the link is not. Weird.

thanks guys... i'll ask around about the MAFCA, maybe someone has a copy. if not maybe i will run across a set some time. i've got them on my 31 pickup, but it is too cold outside and a lot of trouble to take them off. the drawings in the post would be hard to work with unless i could blow them up and print them out. i'm barely computer literate so that may not work.

Larry, you can't see the picture I blew up here? How strange....

that looks good, but i'm a computer dummy. if i try to print that it wants to print the whole column of posts,not just that one. i printed it out anyway, but it shrunk the drawing a bit. i'll break out some 20 gage ant give it a try. thanks
 
Larry, what kind of computer do you have. With my iMAC I can just drag the image to my desktop and print full size. It is a JPG file.

Or take a screen shot - on iMAC; hold command - shift - 4 - outline image

Or PM me your e-mail address and I will send you the file?
 
Larry, I would recommend that you mark the location for the cutout that is for the exhaust pipe to fit your car. I have installed two sets of pans and both purchased sets of pans that had cutouts that were not located properly. Ed
 
many...many thanks to you guys. after some fumbling around and some help from the boss lady i've printed out a readable set of plans. i hope my sheet metal skills are better than my computer skills.
