That whole process is rather confusing. I subscribed
yesterday or the day before and now I'm getting
messages back that I don't understand. I hope they
get it right soon.

Hello,
I recently purchased a 48 ford 1 ton. But it is in peices. Are there any
manuals that show where each peice is supposed to go.
Thanks,
Roy

Roy,

If you have Hemmings look under books and literature. I have also picked up
some great items on eBay under MISC:AUTOMOTIVE:COLLECTOR VEHICLES, not under
automotive.

Good luck,
Howard

Charles;

Speaking as a dad (with grown offspring), and a life-long gearhead who loves
his Fords and Chevys (and BMWs) equally, I'd suggest that you keep doing
what you have been doing which, judging by your posts, is to continue to
treat your youngster with respect. While his opinion about the best engine
> for his F-1 may not quite fit with yours, be proud that he does have an
opinion--and some ideas about how he wants his truck to be. There are far
worse choices in life than putting a Chevy V8 in your Ford truck.>>

Mike, I just couldn't have said it any better. With all the other "Projects"
our youth is active in these days, such as joy sticks in front of computers
and gang banging, building a street rod with your son with your guidance and
his vision and elbow grease is far better than arguing over which
engine to
use. My father, in the sixties, wanted me to keep my 40 Ford completely
stock and felt hot rodding was stupid. So I built it mostly by myself. Not
a father son project. I'm sure he wishes he would have participated in the
project today (he's gone) I know I do.
And lastly, no matter what path you take, building anything and saving any
old classic vehicle is better than what the environmentalist want to do with
them. You know, crush them for gas guzzling and tax credits. A tear comes
to my eye every time I see those flattened out classic beauties being shipped
away to become new "whatevers."

Does any one know where I can get a replacement elbow fitting for a 1950
F1 239 cu in flatty. The elbow attaches to the block, left rear side of
the engine near the oil pressure sending unit, and feeds the line that
goes to the oil inlet on the oil filter.

shawn,

That was a great buy. You can plug the vacuum wipers
into any 'manifold' vacuum port. However I would
recommend converting electric wipers. You can get a
kit from Mid-fifties 1-800-252-1956.

I just bought a 54 F100 recently,
ready to run, and sold my other 54
body frame etc. Unfortunately
i have discovered the one i just
purchased has vacumm wipers :( that
were unplugged. Were is the best
place to install the vacumm hose on
the engine. I am running a 372 with a
750 Holley, and manifold.

Also is there a reasonably inexpensive
way to convert this over to 12
volt electric wipers. the truck is
rewired to 12 volts now.

btw fella's, i bought this truck for a
song. its one of those deals
were mom paid all the bills for the
son to get it done and he ran into
trouble and she wanted whatever money
she could get out of it
asap, Black 1954 F100 (super straight)
new Ta's and mags, new 327, and
new turbo 400 with a shift kit, all
new brakes, new chromed grill and
bumbers, new running boards, hooker
headers, isky cam, its quite lumpy
:) new B&M Star Shifter. all it needs
is a lowering job, and new wood
in the box, and also a front
windsheild as it has a rock chip on the
drivers side (of coarse it has to be
that side)
I offered 3400.00 cash on the table
right now, and she took it. so i
ended up selling my project f100
which needed everything, the
difference in cost out of my pocket was
400.00 after buying and selling. this
is my first f100 that i can
actually DRIVE. i hope to get another
as well that is restored to
original as my wife likes the old farm
truck look better than a rod.

Cheers! any help on the wipers
would be gratefull. Thankyou.
