Re: What did you and your square body do today?
I'm just finishing up a new engine install in my 86 shortbed. I built a 4bolt 350 with the usual stuff. Cam, Intake, Headers and new HEI. Tomorrow I'll adjust the Valves check timing and just maybe it'll fire up! Al W.

Re: What did you and your square body do today?
I brought home this in the bed of my square body....
 It was in the back of my buddies new house and he wanted to get rid of it. I guess not everyone's a fan of early Henry Ford. 1926 5 Window Coupe. Fit perfect in the short bed

Re: What did you and your square body do today?
Drove the '73 to work... Noticed the power steering is starting to "skip". I think the high pressure line is leaking. Will have to deal with that soon...

Re: What did you and your square body do today?
Yo! We got our centrifugal weights changed to lighter ones! Hopefully that advance will come in slower.
Got washed yesterday. Always something exciting around here! Todd.

Re: What did you and your square body do today?
Truck took a dump on the way to work today. Got my friendly brother in law to pull me home.So I got home and fired up the bike and I had no gear oil for the trans,leaks like stuck pig, so I had to car pool with my ol' lady. Put a new fuel pump on the truck tonight and it fired right up.

Re: What did you and your square body do today?
I'm making EXTREMELY slow progress on my '85. I finally got it in my dad's shop. Before I can take it apart anymore we need to get his '72 Road Runner back together so I can make room for my fenders, hood, etc.
I did get the radiator, shroud, engine accesories, A/C lines etc out of the engine bay. Just need to pull the front clip and hood off to yank the motor/trans...but like I said, no room right now.

Got the exhaust redone and picked up a roll pan. Installation this weekend along with fabricating some shock extenders.
