That color on those wheels is bright. Looks good.
bought the wrong ignition control module .
so i still dont get to hear it run for a while.
i got the brown grommet one which is for ca. emmisions.
anybody want a free I.C.M.?
i really need to add $500 to the over all costs of any projects i take on to account for all the unusable parts i buy that i end up throwing in the dumpster....
:rolleyes:
it lives!
the 27 chevy that is.
fired it up for the 1st time yesterday.
we installed a 2 bbl. holly on it and everything seems ok.
i do need a new fuel pump however.
setting timing after work today.
WOOT!
Time for a test ride???
Congrats Billy, always great to hear them fire up!!!
picking up fuel pump today before work.
VROOM!
SKREECH!!
:rolleyes:
Sounds great even with the stock exhaust manifolds. That is a close tolerance for the drive shaft and the cab.
that leaf spring ended up too long.
it is at a spring shop now
they will re-arch all the leafs and make it 1-1/2" shorter.
45 bucks
Congrats to you Billy! Big Moment for sure. And my hat's off to your builder/mentor, whatever his name is! Great work. Wish I had a mentor, other than my long distance friend Jim in Florida! He's been a treasure for me. If not for him I'd have given up loooonng ago! Your build gives me inspiration to resume work on my '29 Essex. perley
well
as of yesterday
i got the seats/steering wheel/ shifter/gas and break pedals installed
the fuel system is finished
so is the shifter linkage
all i need to finish the brakes are two 24" soft lines
and i found some real nice repro model A door handles that are perfect.
i have an unacceptable amount of play in the steering.
so it looks like i will be rebuilding the 64 f-100 steering box.
it looks a lot like the ross box.
