Great thread coming along , specially with pics of the road crew using up the asphalt .
Thanks for the pics! Looks like you guys were set for a good day of roddin'!
A Humber 80?
That's an unusual choice for a rod.
.
lol its a Hillman wagon and they are getting rarer over here now, it belongs to the guy who built my engine, well it belongs to his wife, Steves rod was off the road for a freshen up so they bought his wifes Hillman, it has a supercharged starfire engine in it, pretty much the same engine as mine with the front two cylinders cut off, all parts from my engine are interchangeable with there starfire 4

Cool cars! Would make a dandy rod!

Yup,those Hillmans have all but disappeared over here,now..Have had a few myself,in the early days as a teenager..They took a good thrashing..:eek::cool::cool:
Yep: I had one too...the second car I ever owned.
The first was a '34 Ford tudor, which I traded in on the Hillman.
Thought I was moving up in the world.
How dumb was that?
But the Hillman had a bench front seat and a column change...far more comfortable for "hand to hand combat"!
Sigh.
Don't miss the Hillman; but I wish I still had that '34!
On the plus side though; I've still got the girl...forty-five years on the 24th June just gone.
.
Congrats on keepin the girl ! :)
Had today off so i thought i would have a look at making a belt tensioner , well after farting around all day i came up with this.
it uses all three bolts down the left side of the timing case and also mounts off the engine block and engine mount, it has crush tubes where the two alen key adjusting bolts are and i welded the nuts to the back side of it, i have boxed it all in as well, it just slides back and forward to tension the belt and the alen key bolts lock it in place, seems to work ok and looks a bit better than the last idea i had for this when i had it hanging under the snout, its mounted a lot stronger and doesn't have any movement in the bracket like the last one i was making, just need to make a support bracket from the underside of the snout down to the block to support the snout and its done, :D
