^^I certainly do not know Steve personally, but like clementine^^^ says, I bet Steve is a real standup guy that deserves his many fans to come to his aid. Just a lot of people with small contributions can change this mans life back to as much as normal as possible.
As I have already...
I might se OLD, but my builds just keep getting those $20 glas pacs blow thru excuse for mufflers.. cause I am half (more) deaf and cheap!!!! :BangHead:
When their BS gets deep, I just say something like " Ya wouldn't think I can get this little slant to bury that 120 mph speedo woujld ya,.... but I can!!!!" :thumbsup: :BangHead: :poke: :rofl:
I have driven more than a few slant Dusters to work before I sorta retired. Every time I stopped for gas at that country station, some dude always started a conversation and the topic ended up about slants!
Ya know ya might be getting old when: ya fire up the old Mopar, roll down the windows, drive over to under a big shady tree, listen to the engine.......and drive it down the road 5 miles and back.... just to exercise it a little!!!
No.. real cars don't have AC! :thumbsup: :steering:
Life is factually fun and enjoyable when we learn where to find our happiness and joy! Has nothing to do with $$ and what sells the most Mecum or BJ, or what the neighbor thinks is cool!
We are all cut from different cloth....one guys diamond is another guys turd and vise versa!
I enjoy my...
Funny part is this rear end was 75 Maverick, and Rock nor O Reilly nor anyone has the correct hose. I tried all sort of models but thank you, the Bronco looks like it might work!!
Like the ford guy says " Ford ain't easy but what is!"
Answer: Nothing!!
^^^^I bettered ya!! $25.
:poke:
I could have maybe done more, but a huge pine took out my old Ram pickup other week in a storm..
Really, like said there is a lot of respect and love for Steve. Hopefully this go fund will be shared with all the old car world. MotorTrend should have...
Thats for the info. It does not give the diameter but the length looks correct. The Bronco's hose is closer to right the the F100. Life should not be this hard!!
Sweet ride!
I say life is measured in smiles per mile and happiness is not always measured by $.
Make it as nice as you want and can afford or feel compelled to spend. Just don't tell the wife like in your moto cycles!!
I have a 64 Comet that I changed the rear end to a 75 Maverick v8 8 inch rear. The rear brake hose has the brass fitting and the vent bolt is 1 inch. I have ordered several rear brake hoses for 3 different models, the 75 Mav , 69 Torino, 66 Fairlane theu Rock... everyone has the smaller...
Like I told my wife the other day...."all great men are dead,,,and I haven't been feeling all that well myself lately!" She said "yea, right!!" ha That s a joke,,, sorta!!!
I agree, US old farts gonna have to go safe and I do. But when inflation kills the $, the guys surviving have tangible assets. That 5% barely keeps me at "even" with inflation. But way better than what the crooked banks used to pay which was nothing! :BangHead:
^^^^ LIke 66fs said!
There were two early slant bells drilled for the 4 speed I don't have any anymore or the #'s. Hard to find anyway. Just for the std. A833 4 speed. BUT they don't have the hole for the OD unit. Only bell that comes to mind that might work in the truck slant OD setup/...
^^^ Thats how I have done it many times.
I always wanted one of those little stretcher/shrinker tools!!!!
I learned decades ago, IF I did a (rare?) car back to perfect, I was worried about driving it and getting a scratch or gravel peck... and I knew it would have to be sold to make way for...
Ya can't hardly sit on the "throne" with a darn computer in ya lap....mags work so much better!!
I subscribed to MCG since it was a tabloid, but when it got to seem to be a rich guy's mag having parties at the Playboy mansion, I cut it loose. I always enjoyed MA.
Now MotorTrend on the sat...
