worth working for WB, I used to tell my sons the same thing about college too. I always emphasized that they should do their very best and I would be happy. If a "C" was the best they could do giving it their all then fine, but don't let me catch them skating a "C" when they could earn an...

cowl flaps maybe? Have you considered something designed similar to aircraft cowl flaps to allowed are passage?

Seat belts Look on line at the following link; http://www.seatbeltplanet.com/. This is the internet store front from Beams who makes most of the belts sold by aftermarket companies. I bought them for my '50 Ford (two 3-point and four lap belts) and the total cost was less than the quote from...

inattentive drivers Here in the south central US the drivers who scare me the most are the ones who can't seem to function without their player blaring in their earbuds while driving. I pulled up beside a 20-something at a stoplight earlier this week and I could hear the music from his IPod...

Ditto on the seats Those look really good and comfortable.

July 4th weekend Saturday - mowed the yard (2.5 acres), then went inside and worked on our hall bath remodel. Removed the old water valve assembly and replaced it with a new Delta tub / shower valve assembly, then insulated the walls around the tub for sound control and put in the vapor...

A friend of mine has a right hand drive MGB-GT V8 that he imported from England and has the 215 in it. The only strange looking part is the redesigned manifold with SU (or Zenith) carb sitting on it.

I have a chance to trade my "T" coupe for a model A tudor but don't know much about them. Can someone tell me or post pictures of what the garnish mouldings look like for doors and quarter windows? Also are these hard to find? Thanks Larry [S

Welcome from OKC A friend of mine has a '34. Does the '35 have suicide doors also?

booster with disc brakes If you have to have a booster with 4 wheel disc then GM should have been in trouble years ago. My '67 Corvette Roadster came factory without a booster and it had 4 wheel discs. And I can't begin to count the number of late 60s up to about 1970 'vettes that came...

mechanical temp gauge repair Yes it can be done, but it requires some expertise. I found a website that had step by step pics and instructions a couple of years ago. If I remember correctly it requires a sacrificial gauge to supply a new tube and the liquid it contains. The guy in the...

awful! I just threw up on my keyboard!

1958 Apache - 283ci bored 40 over. Forgot earlier, I have a '50 Ford 239ci flathead going in my .27 T coupe.

51gmc I've had it since 1985. It hasn't run in years but I keep it for when I get time to put it back on the road. Still has the old red faded paint on it.

electronic conversions I have been running a Crane XR700 Electronic conversion on my SBC since '99 without a single problem. Here is a link to what it looks like http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRN-700-0300. A lot of folks don't like it because it has an external box that has to be mounted...

Edelbrock Another thing to consider on the Edelbrocks is that they have two vacuum ports on the front of the Performer. Their carbs include both timed and full vacuum ports for ignition advance which may affect how your vacuum advance works on the distributor and also your vacuum modulator if...
