Spring Carlisle-2010

Saturday at Carlisle was pretty cool!Panhead Phil &and I got there about 9:30 am,a lot of people were thinking the same thing we were.It was crowded,but manageable.Started lookin' for bargains to be had.Found a few that I thought was fair pricing plus[didn't have to pay shipping cost].I was happy with what I bought.Still looking for a nice 33 Ford grille without having to double mortgage the house for.I'll keep lookin.Took a couple pictures of the scenery.That's me with that "cutie" from a Rust Proofing Co.that was trying to sell its ware. [Don't worry,I'm harmless &and,not a dirty old man].In the lower right  is Panhead Phil thinking those are "Bourbon" bottles behind him.I wonder what goes on his mind sometimes.

And  on the upper right is a basic scene of what's going on.I think it would have taken 2 days to have seen everthing,but not enough time,as "Jamoc" my wife, would not let me loose on my own for that  long.[Yes dear].

Over all,I thought the prices were pretty good this year.I usually look on line to get a basic idea of what were look'n for and price wise and go from there.I thought I did ok.

ps. Grandaughter #2 is not born born yet

That Shellby Intake

That intake in the setting is the same type and size as the famous tunnel ports,that Fomoco ran 2 years in the 60's.However it is called a "Tunnel Wedge",because it is made to run on the Non -Tunnel Port Heads.It will work on all FE's without mods.Youll'l need to open the heads up because of the size of the runners. The runners are not round like the regular Tunnel Port that everyone is familar with,but are rectangular like all FE's.This is going to bolt up to the Cobra Jet heads for my block.I'm waiting for the final #'s as the block was decked .030 & I have to see how much comes off the heads,before install.We'll have to shave an amount off the sides to make a perfect fit.This setup is also new.I bought it when I was a kid.Its been in the original box all these years!

Chassis Parts are staring to roll in

Well now that I have basiclly have the body were I want to fit on the frame,we're put one of my spare blocks with a c-6 trans case bolted up to it for an enitial mock up of where we want to recess the engine.Next step is to cut into the floor board which was made by my father[thanks DAD] years ago.He died to young,wish he was still here.He was a hell of a body man.Had his own shop and I sure could use some tips from him.After that we are going to raise the block up to where we it to weld up the solid motor mounts system to the frame.I'll post pictures of this as we are going along.Probably starting next week. Still working on the spring lawn and garden.I do have a real life you know! That's what my wife says,[MAN IS SHE WRONG].
