    Trans rebuilt.

    Trans all ready to go in. New main shaft, bearings, reverse idler shaft and cluster gear shaft with O-ring. Throw out bearing, new bushing on clutch shaft. Everything in the tower except shift lever new. Had 2 transmissions, this one got VIP treatment. The second one is getting almost the same except the main shaft. I have one that is an 8 out 10 so it'll go in the spare for now. Front axle rebuild...

  • '29 Pickup - Parking Brakes (aka Emergency Brakes)

    In June I removed the parking brakes from the rear hubs because of fit issues. In the past few weeks, I finally got around to addressing the issue. The issues were threefold:
    1. I couldn't get the springs that go on the parking brake levers installed properly.
    2. The brake band retract springs would not work.
    3. The brake band with linings drug on the hub.

    So the easiest...

  • Can’t keep my hands off .. pertronix

    We all know you can’t buy a pertronix, only FSI can sell the Pertronix for the Model A. And I’m fine with that. Like everything else in my garage I order stuff months before I get around to installing it. I bought the kit to install in your distributor that replaces the points and condenser. The bottom plate gets pitched also. You get the new spring housing and wiring. Common sense reading the...

    Piloted reamers update

    I didn't realize these would come in what looks like the original corrosion-inhibiting paper wrap. Pretty cool. Gotta be 50+ years old and still in great condition.

  • Bell housing, transmission, parts washer

    Now that I have the engine on the stand, the first item of business had to be removing the clutch and transmission, since they were hanging off the side of the engine and making it impossible to rotate. I realized I didn't know exactly how much the bell housing and transmission assembly weighed. But it seemed like it should be less than 100 lbs.

    I removed the brake and clutch pedals and...

  • Station Wagon - Side Curtains

    A few weeks ago, I received a set of side curtains for my 150-B. I tracked down Richard Hayes from old editions of the Woody Wagons Newsletters. He still has his sewing machine and was able to make me a set. Normally he asks for patterns, but since I am not quite to that point he made them to the specifications of the Ford Drawings, complete with tags. Here are some pics.

    July 2023

    Well, I have been rather busy with work. However I did finally get the pickup out for a first trip for more than just a few feet.

    It did stall on my a couple times and it looks to be a condenser/coil mismatch or bad condenser.

    I am going to run the pinstripe along the line just below the door too.

    I am going to have the top done by a guy my dad has used in Wichita....

  • Frame spreader and parts washer

    Having had such a pain getting the engine out without a frame spreader, I determined to remedy that. It turns out, however, that you cannot currently buy a frame spreader from any of the major vendors, and even if you could, they cost $100+.

    I decided I could design one that anyone could make out of metal bars they probably had in the back of their workshop. It consists of a metal rectangle,...
