well, if it was sitting on concrete you would see that the rear end is sitting about an inch lower than the rear. I can deal with that with tires I believe, but I like it. It has some attitude now and that 400 runs good so I am happy. Now I can get back to work on my '48!:D
I scored a hood ornement off of a '48 deluxe stylemaster and got it mounted today, It has inspired me to begin working again in pursuit of completion. The spring is almost upon us and it's time to start thinking street rod's again Boy's and Girls!!!:D I have a motor and things will really be rock and rollin' now!
you are right spring brickman, but you are suppose to be taking that chrome stuff off, not putting it on. :LOL: :LOL:Quote:

I understand Lt1s10, that is the way it's suppose to go but I wanted to see what it was going to look like. That will be the only chrome on the car so I figure I could sport it for a day or two!:D :D

I like it though, I'm not really sure why but I do. There is something nostalgic about it I guess. Not as much as this one, this is way too much for me.
my first car was a 1966 chev. 3 weeks after i bought it i had decromed it and had put a 348 motor in and been taking chrome off and putting big motors in ever sense, dont know why just do. :confused:Quote:

springs plans! are you asking if we gonna heat them or cut them? :confused:
i think ill cut this time. :LOL: :LOL:
ps- you collected any money yet?:HMMM:
as you all know i am building a 1973 porsche 914 with a 935 style body kit the motor is a 1964 283 the bore is 4in and the stroke is 3in. i have 461 double hump heads. with a holley 4160 600cfm carb. i did have a 327 in the car (it was the motor that was in when i got it) but it dropped a valve and upon further inspection i saw that the cylinder wall was cracked. well i called around and it was going to cost $100 to sleeve it i knew where i could get a 283 with pistons and crank for $125 so i bought it i had the heads reworked by a moron and all i ogt back was a set of clean paper weights all the did was resurface them so i took the heads to somebody else and had the valves replaced and new seats well the motor is almost ready to go in all i have to do is bolt on the intake and finish the engin compartment and im going to put it in the car sometime this week im only 16 and this is my daily driver i have done all the work and funding on my own so i am very proud of my car thanks

Fix my electrical gremlins.
I crack myself up.
No bucks yet, but I haen't given up!!:D By the way, I am speaking of another spring, I am no way bringing that subject up again!!:D :D
That sounds like a fistfull of Porche, I had on also, I bought a new '72 914 in '72 and that little car would fly with the stock 4 popper in it. I can't imagine shoejorning a sbc into one. Got any pic's?
I love that little 'stang, especially the package sticking out of the hood. What are the wiring gremlin's Doing?

Gremlins are myriad and dastardly: primarily, my tach pegs out with key on, even with the engine not running. It started doing this after I removed and reinstalled the coil and distributor. Nothing else has changed, and all the wiring I took apart is in quick-disconnects so I know it's not cross-wired.
Owning a rod means dreaming of finding the previous owner of your car. . . and killing him. The previous owner put in power windows, an alarm, a stereo, remote keyless entry. . . . under the dash it looks like R2D2 threw up.
I just need to buy a Painless kit and rewire the whole thing. Half the exsiting wiring harness is emissions crap.
Any ideas, PM me; let's not get this thread too off-topic.
