I haven't seen one of these used since I was a kid. If you want one just to be original, fine; but I wouldn't think of using one! I think I have all of it around here somewhere if you want it. Glenn in TN << Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2000 00:44:11 EST From: My59f100 aol.comSubject: FTE Pre61 - Jack & tire iron Can anyone tell me what type of original jack & tire iron was used on a 59 f-100 and where was it located. Any numbers on the jack? Did the 59 jack go with other years and if so from what year to what year? Anyone know where I can find one? I have never seen this mentioned on this page. Thanks MY59F100 >> == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info http://www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 8 Jan 2000 15:44:29 -0500 (EST) From: Winford Rister Subject: FTE Pre61 - sandblasting Regarding the sandblasting issue: I have the same compressor, 33gal tank and 6 hp. It has plenty of pressure/volume but I too have a serious problem with moisture. I have two moisture filters in the line, and a plumbing trap with drain plug. I have one of the pressurized units referenced from Harbor freight. It works well for about 3 minutes, then plugs. I also have one of the bench-top units in which I use silicon carbide. I have installed a vacuum cleaner port (shop vac) to keep the dust down. It also works well for a few minutes, then the compound is saturated with moisture. I gave up and had my 54 cab sandblasted by a professional. It cost $300. Short of installing one of the Vampire systems, I don't know how to keep the moisture out. It is a result of condensate in the air as it cools coming from the tank. A larger tank, which would keep the compressed air from becoming so warm might help. 54 Ford, 5.0 EFI, MII IFS, T-Bird Steering column, Ranger tank. ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.mail.com?sr=mc.mk.mcm.tag001 == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info http://www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 8 Jan 2000 17:49:53 -0700 (MST) From: Darcy Lee Davis Subject: RE - FTE Pre61 - Fuel Injection on Flatty Gary, One of my University projects is a F1 style mini car powered by a 600cc engine. Currently we're running a fuel injecton system made by SDS (Simple Digital Systems). As far as I know, its completely programable for more or less fuel charge at many RPMs. I would bet that it would work on a flatty, if you have some engineer and engine tuner in you, but its not TBI FI. There's probably more systems out there as well, search for it at your nearest search engine, or call www.metacrawler.com for details. If you want more details on what our SDS can do, just say the word.

My truck is coming to the end of a four year frame off complete redo {Don't mention drive train here}and I was wodering if any one had used these panels for a do it yourself interior on an F1. My concern is that the article said it was a snap and that to me is like when somebody gives directions to a place and ends by saying "you can't miss it!!" 'cause I always do!
