Subject: OT: Classic Trucks magazine Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 12:01:50 -0600 I made classic trucks magazine! well sort of. Remember last fall I wrote them about the Ch*vy I saw in New Mexico? The truck featured was lowered, tinted and a paint job. The interior was ruff, the engine not detailed at all and the bedwood was washed out, in bad need of a refinish job. The editor was upset! He accused me of expecting all trucks to be perfect; He said "No Sir, not everyone is as talented, skilled and well off as you, but you best better believe that folks try like heck to do the best they can with what they got" Wow. I'm talented, skilled and well off... I never knew! He challenge my accusation of using "Trick photography and camera angles" I stand by my original statement, the truck had 3 pictures of the same tire, and the interior, engine and bed shot were in black and white; flaws were well hidden in that medium. As I struggle to complete my truck, look at all the years involved and look at all the people involved in this group who have spent countless hours cleaning a frame, detailing the engine trying to live up to the standard we have seen in their magazine; and we have a problem. Many of our list readers have nicer trucks that the one featured; Paul Meysembourg, KBaker7180, Randy Selby, Jack Cagle are all examples of trucks that are better or will be better than the one featured...

Subject: Viruses Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 11:40:50 -0800 The rule on viruses is entirely appropriate. If more managers of list servers did this we would all be better off. If you get removed from the list you can still go to the web site and participate in the message board forums, etc. We all have to remember being on the list is a privilege not a right. We need to live by the rules. Its simple and cheep to get anti-virus software everyone should have it. You wouldn't drive your truck without oil, don't run your computer without anti-virus software. ------------------------------ From: DewayneReding aol.com
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 15:35:58 EST Subject: Oil Pan choices for 302 I am installing two Ford 302 engines in two different 1953 Ford F100s. One of the trucks has a Volare IFS and the other has the stock front suspension. I have a pan with a rear sump from a 1985 F150 and a pan from a 1971 van with the mini sump in front and large sump in the rear. Hoping at least one of the pans can be used. Thanks Dewayne Reding 53 F100 ------------------------------ From: DewayneReding aol.com
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 15:43:01 EST Subject: Engine Setback for 302 with Volare IFS Anyone have a 302 and a Volare clip? I need a recommendation on the placement of the engine. How far back is best? I will be using a Volare U-weld it motor mount kit from Mid-Fifty F100. Someone better help me, I took that perfectly good Chevy engine out like you guys said!

Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 17:20:07 EST Subject: Re: Brake flaring tools Dennis, I've bought two different sets of tools. The first was from JC Whitney, and wan't much, I got the double flare dies and that was it no instructionsn nothing. The second set I bought at NAPA I don't remember the price but it was less then $50. That set was complete with tubing block, double flare dies and instructions. And i can tell you from experience to get a couple of pieces of old line and practice. About half my flares weren't centered. Also chamfer both the inside and outside of the line. Hope this helps.

Subject: Re: Brake flaring tools Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 18:56:09 -0700 I bought one from the tool company that seals everything on a red and white card, I can't remeber the name. But the part that clamps around the tubing has gripping ridges that really bark up the tubing. About the fourth flare I made broke the die and no-one knows where I can buy just a die. So I would be interseted in a GOOD set also ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 21:34:21 -0800 (PST) From: Dennis Moody <zeener96 yahoo.com>

Subject: Re: Brake flaring tools Well, I bought one today from Lisle tool (packaged on a red and white card!!). Is seems to very well made and works well so far. I made about 6 flares tonight and only messed up one. Cost me $53 bucks!!! The clamp needs to be pretty beefy for the double flare. That was the problem with most of the junk I found in stores. You would tighten the die and it would just push the tubing out the bottom of the clamp. BTW, the Ridgid tool looks to be by far the best if anyone is still looking. I couldn't seem to find one around here. Dennis --- Richard Larsen <richlars burgoyne.com> wrote:

Subject: Re: Brake flaring tools Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2001 14:08:14 -0700 That's the one! Lisle! It seemed like it left such ridges on the tubing that I couldn't get the nut past them. Could be I need some training also. Seems like there were no instructions whatsoever packaged with mine. I also now face the challenge of finding a new die. I don't relish the idea of forking out $50-55 every time the little nipple on the die breaks off. Any ideas? > Well, I bought one today from Lisle tool (packaged on a red and white > card!!).
