Meller's "Last" Hoorah - '62 Fairlane

:LOL:Don't want one of those overflowing !:LOL::CRY::(:eek:

If it lets go more than 32 oz then I'm in trouble !

Yes it's all in fun (even the Red Green touch) but it's primarily meant to keep my four legged friends from lapping up the Radiator "P". By no means is it as efficient as 36 Sedan's latest creation. I'm not sure that it will hold up very long under the engine bay heat and etc but it's ok for now.

I remember a nurse walking into my room after my knee surgery with one of those and a length of hose saying guess what time it is :eek::eek::eek::LOL::LOL::LOL: at least I got to go home the next day

Charlie, I toll the Wiffy the other day - - - "do you know how many of these we have brought home from the Hospital thinking that we might (for some God only knows reason) be able to use them some day?" - - - yet there I was the other day in CVS buying one for my ?Fairlane? hahahaha

Those are the last things I want to think about upon leaving the hospital :LOL::LOL::LOL:

I'm not "touching" this topic with a 10 and a 1/2 foot pole!! :LOL::LOL:

UPDATE: Lowering blocks are out, new dual Flow Master clones are on and sporting brand new stance. I would still like to have it up a little more in the front but I don't think there's any way that the PO will return my calls or emails to see if he still has the stock spindles. Had a little ignition wire looseness trouble yesterday but I wiggled and jiggled wires this morning and got it cranked but only after having it hauled home on a roll back wrecker yesterday morning.

FWIW: the muffler man told me that it was rust free underneath except for where they had replaced the passenger floor board and that makes me happy. Wish I'd gotten a chance to swing by while he had it in the air but things just didn't permit it.

You know EM that ain't a bad looking ride..I think you should wiggle and jiggle out and fix the wires haha You going to post an audio so we can hear???

I kinda like the slight rake to the front! But it ain't mine so...:):LOL::3dSMILE:

Yeah, I like the stance also but just NOT the bottoming out - - - guess I need to start paying attention when not on the super slab, eh? After I get a few things done around here, I'm gonna trace all of the HEI wires thru the firewall and to the ignition and see if I can find any damage or loose connections - - - if I don't find anything then, I've been told, it could be the HEI getting too hot. That would not make me happy at all. LOL

I wonder if the Bario Bros. used a torch to sag the front springs?? Maybe take a look and see if there is any evidence of them heating one spot. Then it would be an easy fix to repair the stance!

Looking good M, thats the best photo I've seen of it. Considering its a eff oh are dee. HarHar

Sir ,this is perfection and you gotta remember, hot rods ain't supposed to be practical and ride like one of those plastic fantastic late model boring things that the Auto Manufactures try and tell us is better then sliced bread. No Sir, you have nailed it for " That Look " stance.

Thanks Gents, I'm slowly getting used to being careful about what surface I run over and how fast I go over it **)- - - you gotta understand that I went from a stock '56 Jimmy PU to this F-f-f-f-f-f-erd :eek:
