    Yep another Ford F1 build aka: SNUB-NOSE

    Thanks for the feedback guys. All much appreciated. I actually toyed with the idea of putting 59 caddy fenders on the rear..thought it might look too much like the bat mobile.

    carb/timing question

    Long story short: stock 350, small B&M supercharger, 600 holley. Trying to get it tuned and just cant quite get it. Plugs are showing super rich. Pops out the exhaust when you back off the throttle. Seems to want a ton of advance. Im way off the timing tab before it starts to run good. Id try to...

    Ok hair cut is done...Was hoping to keep the roof as one and alter pillars as needed but that aint gonna work. Had to quarter the top and will start fitting it back together. Have to go to Asia for work so progress is gonna slow down. Will post more pics as i have them.

    New project....."project X"

    Yeah I dont see much come up my way so I had to watch and see what happened. I put the number in and if I got it fine, if not I would have kept looking. I figure pricewise Its a little high but when I figure in having to travel and get something im way ahead of the game.

    New project....."project X"

    Figured it was time to get the "snubnose" a little brother. Just bought this 30 Tudor and it will be the next project. My initial thoughts are: open top dragster/gasser style, leafs front and back, 300 straight six with a turbo, 4 speed stick, body shortened and widened, turtle tail, roll bar...

    Curious about driving/titling/etc

    Im 100% certain there is much better way for an officer to spend his time than worrying about somebody guy in an antique truck. However, most are on an ego trip, ****ed that they arent you, couldnt build something if they tried and paid a very low wage for what they are doing. I just want to...

    Curious about driving/titling/etc

    I have the tilte I just need to transfer to my name and get the plates. Going that route there is no inspection. I have every intention of driving it wherever I want. This wont deter me from driving it. Getting pulled over in my regular street car got me thinking about it. Its not the local boys...

    Curious about driving/titling/etc

    1st part of the story which leads to below: I have a newer Z28 I drive in the summer. A few days ago I get pulled over for no front license plate and then he notices the windshield has a chip in it. He gives me a warning for both and tells me I have 30 days to fix, send in the proof they were...

    Yep another Ford F1 build aka: SNUB-NOSE

    Well the Snubnose project is coming to an end. Still have some tweaking and the brakes pretty much suck but other than that ill be wrapping it up. Was fun to do but I dont think I would start from (4) pieces of 2 x 4 steel again. I think it would much easier to start with a complete truck...

    carb question

    mine is externally adjustable and ive tried multiple adjustments. Ive tried a different needle and seat and a different float bowl to no avail. I cant believe all is bad. Maybe I need the regulator. I do feed from the rear. Last thing I can try is to feed the front first and see if it does the...

    carb question

    have a holley 3310 750 vacum secondaries. Im running an electric pump set at 4 psi or supposed to be and it does seem to be. Turn the pump on and after a few seconds when the rear bowl fills the gas flows out the rear vent tube. Checked the needle and seat and both are fine. Pulled the bowl and...
