He needed the title to say 32 Ford. He was building new cars and washing the titles thru some southern state to change them to the year of the body style and got caught by the Feds or CA DMV and almost went to jail.

I have rebuilt a few of these valves. The Stanger site is pretty right on that if there is any scuffed damaged parts the rebuild won't last. Only way to tell is to take it apart. If it's real bad, send it off, if not try it yourself. There really is two halves to these things. The mechanical stub pa...

1964 292 V8 Radiator Mounting

Ok experts, take a look at this photo and tell me if the radiator is in here right. It is a 64 part number radiator. It looks to me that the side supports were soldered back on backwards making the radiator sit too close to the engine.....

Usual thinning in the front of the bed I have a spare bed I got for the other Slick I bought in a tow auction (photo in the gallery). As luck would have it I found a 66 in a wr...

Interesting Writing inside door of junked 66 F-100

This is a close up shot of the inside of a right front door of a 66 in a local wrecking yard. When I took off the door panel cover I saw this inside. It looks like someone took their finger and wrote in the wet paint inside the door. The rest of the inside of the door has even overspray and no indic...
