spent several years spraying industrial and automotive, most of what you need to watch out for has been mentioned already in this thread, armerall, wd-40, brake fluid, are all things that will get on a vehicle special an older one. these can realy mess things up for ya, brake fluid for example is t...

well if thats 2,500$ then i would have to say my slick is at least 10,000$$ mine runs and drives and its got twice as much sheet metal, and even with twice the amount of sheet metal then that one has i bet i got less rust. i live 1/4 mile away from the pacific ocean. evrything here rusts, [/img]http...

nice looking truck, but that license plate is kinda funny looking. my plates are a lot shorter then yours, but they proudly say Oregon on them. so greetings from Oregon. incase someday me and my slick decide to move over there, whats it cost to ship a slick across the pond? i wonder if it would be c...

i got hella h4's in my truck. the first time i hooked them up i just put them in without relays. i had one side that was real brite and one real dimm. 2 miles down the road first time trying them out they cooked my headlite switch and before i knew what was goin on my headlites went out, it was pict...

looks pretty damm good but the color i dont like very much. but even though i dont like the color i do have some appreciation for it. just being origanal and it's a fitting color for the 60's. if it were a 70's truck or even mayby a 50's (i dont know i ain't old enuff to be an expert on 50's) i coul...

iceman how many times have you seen that same basic question asked scince then? you know they make gloves without the finger tips. that way you can keep your hands warm and type with 2 fingers like me.

i only have one of my stock door panels. so i used it as a template and made 2 new ones out of corian. corian is a material used for counter tops, made by dupont. for those not familiar with it. its basicly a hard plastic about 1/2inch thick that comes in 100's of colors and is realy easy to work wi...

one of my first trucks i ever owned had the cd player jacked out of it. never had a key to the doors so i couldnt lock it up. so i installed my new cd player in the glovebox. it was kinda a pain getting to unless i had a passenger, then they got to play disck jockey. the stereo in my car i have now ...

my '66cc has an aluminam grill chrome bumpers front & rear, dont believe the rear bumper was stock. it looks to me as though it came off mayb 70's ford truck. sure would like to know if it is or not. not that it makes any difference to me, just curiose i guess

the pinch/ kink way to siphon gas works well. even easier way... i take the fueline off my boat, along with the bulb you squeeze to get the gas from the tank to the boat motor. stick one end in the tank your siphoning the other in the tank you want to fill and start squeezing. if you dont happen to ...

kinda clever. to bad it aint much of a secrete now

how would i go about finding fuel pressure and volume? can i disconect fuel line from pump to carb and just run it into a bottle while cranking engine to find volume?

my slick started running like crap, during about a 2-3 week period. been a bit harder to start. i have lost all power. a good runnin 300ci engine up till now all of a sudden will barely do 35-40mph, and it takes almost 2 miles of straight and flat road to get her going that fast. my muffler is ruste...

had an old retired mechanic tell me to remove my fan and install an electric fan and that would get me 3-5 more miles per gallon has any1 done this and was there that much of a gain or is it just a waste of time if only trying to get better mileage?

closed the valve, problem solved. now i can enjoy the ride a little more. not as much road rage now that i ain't frying my marbels while being stuck behind a bunch of dam tourists or even worse being stuck behind a Washington driver

thanx thats just what i was hoping to hear

i seem to get an awfull lot of heat in my slick even with the heat off. it feels as if my heater is cranked on. my engine doesnt overheat, but the heater core does have a small leak. i dont think that has any thing to do with the heat though it so small i rarely see water just a faint smell of antif...

nothing a little bubble gum and tin foil cant fix. i dont recomend using sugarless gum though it doest stick as well

seen on an earlier post about heater hoses that you can can get convetion heat in the cab if hoses are hooked up backwards. i think mine are wrong and just wanted to double check before switching them around. the way mine are now is with the inside hose closet to engine with the valve goin to therm...
