Is the rear bumper also an air tank? I see a fitting on it. A welder friend makes air tank bumpers for wreckers only he uses round tubing.
The pitman arm puller should do the trick but I have removed dozens, may be hundreds, using two hammers. One big hammer for swinging and then a...
A few upgrades but nothing radical. Biggest is using a Mustang II front to get rid of the awful coil spring on top of upper A-frame and the even...
Customers somewhat rare 68 Mustang big block convertible didn't have much good left on it so it's just about is being built from scratch. Will...
Made another quick trip to the Minnesota border (in a modern car) to bury my sister. Just two of us left now out of eight. When I go on my next...
You can also make your own by using small diameter freeze plugs <> 5/8" and drilling a hole in the center of them. Can't recall on a 55.1 but on...
I had an experience like Thunder 54 backing through his yard only magnified. When the driveway was repaired they piled the old asphalt chunks in a...
Yes. The new pattern will only have to be moved out 1/8" to give the GM 4.75" bolt pattern. A number of places can re-drill the rear rotor but why...
Oh yes, it is fixable. AD Suburban rear fenders are just like pickup fenders except they wrap around under the rear tail pan so this makes them...
Here's how we do one like this; you can use some of it, none of it, or part of it--your choice. Repair is your choice, on or off. Paint should be...
Put the red lead (+) on the DISTRIBUTOR side of the coil, and the other clip to a good ground. Set dwell meter to "6 cylinder", remove cap and...
They have turn signal beepers on ebay for under 10 bucks. I don't know about the later model beepers but the ones for back in the 70's and 80's...
If you post the numbers that are stamped into the pad right beside where the distributor fits into the block we can probably ID your 235.
Darn, Wish my class reunion (60th) wasn't till after you have to go back to work. I'd stop by with the old Buick and we could do a team drive to...
To put one back like plain jane factory we figure on one day. Install double contacts for turn signals, heater, radio, and alternator...
If it were my project I'd do as Bill suggests and get an electric motor that fits. If not, send vacuum motor to David Ficken (Wiperman) in West...
Exactly as Andy said. You might take a paint stirring stick and balance it on top of the starter switch button on the starter (or have someone...
OK, gotcha. Do NOT run the 12v feed wire from the "IGN" on the switch as this draws voltage away from the coil or HEI. I think there is an "ACC"...
Guess I should have labeled it "Hey Bill". A truck came in (57 3100 IIRC) that belonged to a lawn/tree service and had this on it. Before swapping...
If the foggy old brain remembers right we used to use starters from 49-53 cars as they were the push button type. A wire from the accessory...
