Wanted: a used timing chain. Really?

I have one.. LOL

 

[straightlinespeed]

I have 17 inch wheels. I did not like the tire choices in 15 inch size. 225 50R17 front and 245 50R17 rear. On 8 inch width wheels.

Damn you! Well your no help!

I have one too...but it’s a double roller from a 360 Magnum. I wouldn’t hesitate to put it in another engine.

Yea I know, sorry....

I had to raise the front to fit the 216/65/15 tires. The total rake on the car is around 1.5” back to front.

Yep, I have a lot of rake right now... Im currently running a 195/65/15 Only 25" tire, and that fits in there nice. My current rear is a 205/70/15 which is a 26.3" tall and 7.7" wide. The tire your running is 26" Tall and 8.5" wide.

I used to have a lot of rake too, but after replacing the rear springs with SS and putting new 0.920 torsion bars up front, I releveled the car to fit the wheels and tires. I am very happy with how it turned out.

The stance looks great! I upgraded the Tbars to the 1.03 from PST and I barely have the adjuster bolts threaded in. I wouldnt mind cranking it up a bit more. I assume you have to have it realigned after you adjust the height correct?

I would.

Absolutely. You need to get the alignment done after you have the final height geometry established. Only then can you get the alignment right.

The body is as straight as an arrow and the shine makes all the difference in appearance...

Yep mine too, both straight no filler....lucky!! I love to detail and feel I'm really good at it. Only use soft white 100% cotton towels. I use them once, if they hit the floor they are done too. I wash them until I feel they can't be used. Then they are used for engine/oil stuff.

I'll spend four hours and several Beach Boys CD's shinning the cars. Would a buffer go quicker, probably, but with time I enjoy doing it by hand. I use Meguiars 7 show gaze. For the trim and wheels 0000 steel wool and white diamond metal polish. When I'm all done I buff it all with a clean towel.

Here is a picture I took a reflection off the hood of my 55 Bel Air . I thought it was pretty good for clouds and sun.

Working on my trailer im pulling to carlisle

View attachment 1715176021
I built it as a dump trailer, to pull behind my quad. Not going to need it any longer to dump. So a complete makeover.

Are you still gonna be able to take a dump when it's done????

 

[krazykuda]

thats not gonna be big enough

That's what she said....

 

[krazykuda]

So --- I'm thinking about doing Tee Shirts....

2 questions...

Should I just do one with the FABO logo on the left chest or do I need to do something more involved? (like "Got Mopar" or "If its too loud, Your too old" on the front and the logo on the back)

Second question. If I do something more involved like I mention above, would it be a problem if I included 3 sites on the back? I was thinking FABO, FBBO and FCBO with the tag line "The ABC's of Classic Mopar"

1. Do more than just the left chest logo...

2. I would prefer to keep it FABO only...

 

[krazykuda]

Ugh! Try to make the best of it if you can. Flying is never fun.

Plus it makes your arms tired....
