New member, and our 34 Ford.
Hi everyone! We started this project about a year ago. My Husband, Gary has been building cars for 30+ years now, and I have been steadily learning the last few years. We found the bare frame, and chassis locally here in Alabama for a steal. So the opportunity couldn't be passed up. It's currently got a Ford racing 306, mated to a C4 TCI. MSD powered ignition. QA1 coils, and a Heidts 4 link suspension, and 9 in. rear end. Flaming River steering column, and bits and pieces from Summit and other supliers. The list goes on, and on.
And here's where we're at today..
I know there's obviously a lot that has been done between those three pictures. If you have any questions or want to see anything else, let me know know we have a ton of pictures. Gary is currently working on the wiring harness, and will be working on getting the steering column through the firewall in the near future. Stay tuned for all the updates, and pictures!

Sorry everyone! Thank you all for the warm welcome. I've been busy this past week with prep for SEMA. I'll actually be live broadcasting tomorrow, and Thursday for some of the events. Give me a few, and I'll try to post all the pictures we have taken.Tess AKA Ms Quicktrick AKA Ninja Nana

We kind of skipped a time period here, but here's where we are currently.

Does anyone see photos in post # 10? I don't see any. I don't think a new member can post that many photos on the 3rd post.Jack

No, I don't see any photos, only an image box indicating an attempt to attach files. The only way anyone, new member or old, can include more than five photos in a single post is by linking image files from a third party host, smugmug, photobucket, etc, etc. Posting jpeg files from one's own computer is five or less per post.Roger

Sorry everyone! Was looking for the forum rules, but never found it. We sell DIY alignment tools, and accessories. I had a booth at SEMA last year, but I had some other priorities to focus on this year. So no booth, but I will be trying to grab as many photos as possible between meetings, and other events. I guess my drop box links didn't work. I'll have to re-upload them to a different hosting service.Tess AKA Ms Quicktrick AKA Ninja Nana
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
