  1. As long as the transmission only gets 6 volts, I think you'll be OK.
  2. I'm sure we could give her a few co-ordinates to start her off!!! :eek: Save some wear and tear on some heavy equipment!!
  3. HeHeHeHe...I know, but most of us are
  4. Welcome back!!!!
  5. Ny industrial has no number on the regular location either. It was rebuilt once locally by the Chrysler dealer in 56 and has a tag for that but that's it.
  6. "So when the turn over happens its just at the top, the MP's stay there?" Nope, the whole thing goes down and we start from scratch This time cooler heads prevailed if that's possible when talking politics!!!!
  7. Kinda like being run by a B list actor?? :eek: LOL!!! Politics is very wierd no matter where you are!!!!
  8. The transmission electrics are run from the 6 volt coil. To run 12 volts, you need a ballast resistor to reduce coil voltage to the ignition, so just hook up the transmission electrics after the ballast resistor to continue running the transmission on 6 volts. I'm pretty sure it doesn't care whether it's positive or negative ground.
  9. We aren't armed, but the crooks freely import handguns from south of the border, and freely use them on each other!!
  10. Rick Mercer Explains Canada for those who were afraid to ask
  11. Buy it, get it running, dismount blast and paint the wheels, add some better rubber and sell for $3000
  12. I had the machine shop install the bushings and ream them out as well...$35...well worth it. One day in and out.
  13. That's a beauty!!!
  14. The woodwork on these might be alot simpler in the future. Maybe even some enterprising woodie owner could simantle his woodie and make a kit. http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/video_player.shtml?vid=944641
  15. Charlie's cheaper and closer. Not sure your finances are our business...how come you mention that??? I think things are tough all over but on this site you sure have nothing to 'splain!!
  16. Seems the Russians thought they could use the concept as well, much later. I wonder why this never caught on. Seems like a perfect machine for snow or sand. http://www.freiburgersjunkyard.com/blog/Motorized-Freak-of-the-Week-Russian-ZiL-Screw-Propelled-Truck-Thing.html
  17. I have an old motorhome that has a good rear end that will be going under the 62 Dodge D300 I bought last summer. Looks to be a direct bolt in swap. Gets rid of the obsolete six bolt split rims and updates the brakes along with decent highway ratio. The whole motorhome with a good running 440 was $200.
  18. Such a great picture, I couldn't resist
  19. Pretty hard/impossible to get the correct parts for a hemi without an engine number.
  20. I was told by my dad who ran a real service station in the late 40's/early 50's to dump out the acid, rinse with clean water, dump again, refill with distilled water and slow charge for 3 days. I've done that a few times and was happy with the results of a few more years. Last couple of times, I added CLR to the rinse and rinsed a second time. Works great.
  21. Bud, I'm enjoying the project updates. I don't have a pilothouse and I'm not going to chop or suicide door my Chrysler, but watching you tackle these jobs as well as the dash instal is fun. I'm wondering why you weren't impressed with the bearclaws. I'm considering an update on the door latches on my Chrysler, so any experiences are relevant. Thanks alot and keep the updates coming as soon as your wife is feeling better. Give her my best from Canada! Pat
  22. Welcome to the best forum on the web. I like the intake/exhaust manifold. Is it homemade?
  23. Well...fixing, painting, hunting for the right tool, attaching, reattaching, discovering the part won't fit, discovering I bought the wrong part, having an adult beverage to rethink the whole situation, moving on to another area and beginning the whole process all over, is the other half. (some...OK, lots...of steps are missing, but you get the idea!)
  24. I think the parts hunt is half the fun!!!
  25. Can't be a Red Green job, no duct tape!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhSqvycZZ0c
