    When I was a kid my Dad built street rods 46-48 Fords were a specialty for some reason...like the one y'all have...my Dad would pull the flatheads rebuild'em and sell'em...what he did was get a Hemi engine to drop in...his work car was a 46 Ford business coupé...later it became my oldest brothers first car and his first hot rod... we've all had many street rods over the years but none we loved as much as the ones Dad helped us build....

    Hey Matt, Mike and Steve
    What a great way to start a sunday morning.
    Seeing Dad's daily taken for a spin.
    My second car was a black 46 Ford coupe with a worn out 8BA.
    I sure miss that car.
    I sold it when I joined the Army in 1966.
    Moon is a great asset to ITG.
    He finds lost items in the shop for you.
    He keeps a sharp eye on the road ahead for you.
    He helps you eat some of the wonderful treats your fans send you.
    He inspects almost everything in the shop for you.
    What more could you ask for from a dog ?
    Stay Warm, Be Safe

    Fords always require a ground strap from the battery to the chassis and from the chassis to the block "at the starter". Had this problem a few times in the past. Easy enough to try.

    @87mini 2 года назад +5

    I agree, the air cleaner and valve covers look sharp together! When you get it all tightened up, some insulation and carpet, and maybe some sound deadener in the doors & roof, it'll be a sweet cruiser for dad! I thought I wouldn't like the straight pipes with a SBF, but they do sound nice for around town - might be a bit much on the freeway, though. Any thoughts on sound deadeners? Lizard Skin? it doesn't look as techno as the foil/butyl types. Keep up the good work! I'm your dad's age, so very jealous! I wonder what color he will prefer?
