I was thinking about going to the kitchen area of a department store and getting one of those bristle brush things on the twisted wire with the wooden handle for cleaning out bottles. I thought of cutting off the wooden handle and putting the twisted wire end into my cordless drill to clean the...

We used to have an '81 with the 351W...but there were very few of them, most were a 302.

The 390 in the Comet would be awesome insane fast...in the mid-70's a buddy had a 302 in a Maverick and that car was a mover. Someday I want a '55 Chev like in the movie American Graffiti.

...seems like everything in my '55 is worn out. Gonna be a 2010 by the time I am done!

Great info to stumble upon, was thinking the same about my '55.

You lost me.

But if you really want to get going you need to shift out of granny gear.

Dang, when I thought I had been bad I learned I was just useless. That aint right. 4r100-3 got me going with his new handle and did not use the smiley face and got me for what I had coming anyway. My first step on this site and I stumble. At least I get a little pleasure thinking he got his...

4r100-3, you are such a goofball! You got me big time with my pants down and I never saw it coming. And guess what? I got one of my threads deleted for this site before you did, so there. Only took me 24 hrs to screw up. Thanks. :P

Not much to show yet since the body is off, the engine is just finishing up being put back together and then will get to the chassis work. Stuff is all over the place.

Just working on an old project where I can see the parts and no smog stuff. Gonna be long term but am not in a hurry. Hope to learn and share what I learn too.
