Looks good. How about some side pics of the whole truck?

If I understand you correctly, your bleeders are stripped and you can not get them out. Buy new wheel cylinders. if you can get them out. take them to Advance/AZ/O'Reilys etc and they have the speed bleeders. Just have to find the ones that match.

looks like shock rubber???

Ah, the good ole times I could tell you about Cumming....gotta lotta friends there. I used to live over in Fulton County {now Milton}on Hopewell Rd. We sold out to a BIG sub-division and moved up here to piece and quite.

So, where in "North Atlanta" could I find you?

Just went and tried this, no change. What ever is holding it from going back to neutral is very strong, I put a leverage bar on the shift arm and damn near bent the shift arm in two.
Thanks Johnny,

I have a problem with my C6, and it goes like this. I can shift thru the complete gear range, forward and back with no trouble..IF THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING..but with the engine running when I down shift to low and come back up to drive it will not go back to neutral, I disconnected the shifter and ...

Thanks everyone for responding, here is what I see that I feel is not quite right with this model, the curve at the back of the roof drops down to far, the mirror is wrong, the base of the wipers are away from the windshield to far, should be tucked up closer to base of trim, bottom of the front fen...

It does seem hard to believe how long it has been since anyone offered a built up model kit for a Slick... Tellico.. are you molding bodies/kits? Or is this a production kit coming out? There used to be a guy online that made some replica pieces from the old long gone kits... This is a production k...

Dang that was quick, thanks. Heres a picture of a 1/25 scale model thats coming out soon. Whats the opinion of the slick owners? https://images52.fotki.com/v1552/filenHdl/67178/4/43743/3168549/1965FordF1001.jpg And PLEASE be honest, if you see anything that needs changing please say so.... sorry abo...

So, how many different roof tops are there on Slicks? 61 thru 66...Also, would the B pillars have all been the same? Of course the big windows would be different...just a friendly little argument between friends LOL
Thanks

Jeff, I replace my shackles with some stock 2005 Ram 1500 units, they were longer than the Ford, had to narrow the bushing side, But!!! a two inch lowereing shackle will not lower the axle two inch's...you'll be lucky to get 3/4" at the axle. The best way to get what you want is to remove the r...

"give me some motivation to get busy andcfinish it.


Just think about the day when you load eveybody up and go for that first ride!!

Jeff, have you tried the fan yet? Looks like it will be pretty close.

Was just wondering if anyone had a good example configuration in their truck that produced reasonably low RPM at those speeds. Well, mines not a good one, thats for sure. I have a 3.50 and at 55 I'm "screaming" along at 2500 rpm. So something in the 2.89/3.00 range might be a good start.....

So, they are fixed. So Simple. just turn the plastic nut thats under the metal cover to adjust when they stop...
