Re: Andy Brizio RIP

Sorry about the loss. In time we will all have a reuniting, a huge extravaganza of our dear friends and Fords. For now we have the memories and keep our spark as strong as we can.

Re: Questions on Ford 427 side oiler

Thanks Kultulz, nice little read about those big inch guys, too bad the Cammer wasn’t allowed as it really should have been, obviously some manipulation going on there.

Re: 1960 Ford Galaxie 4 door Pillarless Station Wagon?

A lot of folks that see it must just scratch their heads in wonder. I’d like to have at least 1/10th that talent.

Re: Mail order dual exhaust systems

From Waldrons, when I ordered their exhaust for the ‘37 in 2016, they offered free shipping to the nearest Fastenal store. In my case that was about 20 miles from me, was a really good deal. You get...

F1 Panel truck weight

Can anyone tell me of a website for older ford trucks? I’ve had no luck finding such a site. I would like to know the weight of a ‘51 panel f1, and more info at a later time. Thanks

Re: help: Trunk won't open

I am SixVolt and might have a remedy for your problem. I am hoping that the latch mechanism is the same as on my 37 Ford because mine had a similar problem last year.

Re: Happy birthday to me

Happy Birthday Lawson, be sure and keep oil in the crankcase and in the shocks and replace your air filter periodically, you'll keep purring just like an old flathead does.
