Re: MY OL 66 - Custom Cab Ranger - Project Pictures

Well, I have finally gotten back to work on this project. I retired the middle of last year, and after working on several other little projects around the house and yard, I started back to work on my slick. When I stopped previously, I had stripped and repainted the suspension/frame area up to the f...

Re: effect of altitude on specifications

put a throttle body EFI on and let it do the tuning! The EFI is just unbeatable for varying elevations without hands-on changes. They are also becoming more economical; this quarter's LMC catalog has a setup to control both spark and fuel for under a grand, which means SOMEONE is likely selling it ...

Re: Hello I'm new here

pv544: They would need to all be painted as they have many scratches and surface rust.
I will try to get some pictures of the four of them sometime this week.
If you want, PM me your email address and I will send them directly when I get the pictures.
Thank you.

Re: Hello I'm new here

Welcome!
I have a '66 shortbed and live down in Tucson.

You mentioned that you might be getting rid of the wheels?

I have a set of original steel wheels I might be interested in using as partial trade.

Thanks!

Re: Those with drop beams...I need some help

As far as I can remember, my chassis tech drop beams are the same length as my stock beams.
Should not have any issues with width, although the truck is a long way off from having the rest of the front suspension, much less the fenders, back installed in place.

I found two antennas, but I still have not found my old CB.

I will keep looking this week after work to see if I can find it to do your experiment.

Geez, Doc... This sounds like an experiment from one of my old college physics classes. You know the one where you put an incandescent bulb in your mouth and then touch a Van de Graff generator. I have a CB around the garage somewhere, but haven't used it in years. I might have to dig it out just to...

Heater Core Tube length

In my '65 Mustang, the core tubes only extended far enough to end between the back side of the heater core and the interior side of the firewall, which made for a lot of creative adjectives and new chiropractic positions to get the clamps on and off. I then had a radiator shop add longer tubes onto ...
