I see you’re looking for a 65, 66. I have a 70 five stud for a 250 six cylinder with no brakes. I don’t know what the difference is but you can have it if you want to come to Dallas and pick it up. I’m pretty sure it is slap worn out cause it’s making noise like pinion gears. It has 150,000 miles on it.

In 1969 I had the oldest car in school. I had spent the summer rebuilding it up from a body off frame project. Including painting it in and out with new upholstery and top. Overhauling the engine and front suspension. The day of the first start of the engine a friend and I took off for Nevis, MN on the 8th Crow Wing Lake from Tucson AZ on the first of August. Before we got out of town the engine quit because a nut fell off the coil. Stripping the wire and wrapping it around the coil lug, we were on the road again. Two weeks later driving back home. A week after that I turned around and drove to Milwaukee WI non stop, 32 hours. On that trip I ran out of gas outside of Deming NM on the way to Hatch at around 2 in the morning. There were no gas stations open at that time in the morning. I flagged down a car and it turned out to be a high school friend driving that car. After catching up and gas I was back on the road. It was a 55 T-Bird.
   On the trip home from the Vandailia bash the roll pin on the distributor gear broke. The group with us stopped and we were back on the road in no time. Today I was driving the 70 Mustang convert to the airport and turned unto the access road to the airport. As I accelerated down the road and shifted into 4th, the clutch slipped big time. I went back through the rest of them, it's shot. It would have happened on this bash trip had we been able to go. We would have had to join Vicky and Don on the trailer back home. There is no way to know when when a break down is going to happen. Weather it is human error or defective parts. Most people that stop are very friendly and helpful. The help on the road is an amazing God send.

Good pics, waiting to see more.

Thanks the prayers. The Drs and Nurses say  that Karens dad is recovering well and will be coming home soon. Karen and I will need to go to rehab to learn how to help him with some of his rehab. They will also come to do home care as well.
Have a great bash wish we were going. We are canceling our reservations but not sure about Springhill Suites at this time.

I didn`t expect to get wrapped up in the Bash Thrash this year. It`s been running real good. I shouldn’t have done a walk around. Two of the rear axel seals were leaking and I dont have the time to look at. The shop found all the bearings in the differential burning up. So Im glad they caught it. It’s supposed to be finished today.

The oil pressure, manifold pressure, and fuel pressure sensors were originally around $25. each. The diaphragms started to wear out in them and an Airwortiness Directive was issued to replace them with $285. each sensors. 
       Aircraft fuel injection is pretty much the same as a pressure carburetor with the addition of a spider to run the fuel to each cylinders intake port.

Interesting that an AGM in an airplane doesn’t last as long as a “wet” battery but I'm still running my original AGM in my 2019 truck. The “book” says it should last two more years than the wet battery

We never had that stuff in our cabinet when I grew up but our friends and neighbors did. If we got scratched or worse we’d go home and put Bactine on it. Sissies maybe, but they wouldn’t “fly” their bike over our jump either.

I put a certified Earth X battery in the Cub. For such a tiny and light battery it works really good. Sins the engine faster too. A friend also put one in his plane. There is no reason to not put one in a car given the price of a new automobile battery. They last about twice longer too.

Mine did get away, I gave it away. I actually had two of them. I bought for $500 each in 1969 about 3 months apart. The first one was a bondo bucket that didn’t run and the other one was a body only, cut up to be a drag racer. I took all parts off the bucket and put them on the racer including the body parts that I needed and overhauled the engine. I drove it to Mich, Minn, & Wisconsin from Az three times. And all over AZ. In 74 my wife was in a fender bender accident. I couldn’t find a good replacement fender so it sat in the garage for over a year until a friend came to visit and spied it in the garage. After a short negotiation I traded both 55 T-Birds for his six month old Pinto. About 3 months later my uncle sold his 55 Bird for $32K. Then about a year later we went to the guys house that had my T Birds and the driver was sitting out in his empty lot painted in a rough primer with the top down. Very little of the car had been masked off and overspray was all over the interior. The fender was fixed however most excellently. My Mustang is my current replacement vehicle.
       The next car was a 68 KR convertible that was for sale across the street from a convertible car show that was going on. It was a beat up I car I thought someone had modified. At the time I had no clue what it was.

FOUND IT!!!   Wasn’t me.  I took the Mustang in to redo the exhaust system and he had to remove the drive shaft. The rear U joint had one cap that was nothing but powder. Glad thats over.

I’ve shears, scissors, die grinders bid and small, cutters, polishers and I thought everything in between, but I’ve never heard of a waver wheel. The Internet defines it as something for the lake. 

Thanks all or the recommendations. I’ve been welding since I was a kid. I learned on Oxy/Acetylene and have mostly worked with thin sheet metal. When heavy duty welding was needed I did ARC welding. I played with wire fed welding many years ago long enough to see how it worked. Some guy set it up for me so I’ll need to learn how to do that. I don't remember if it used gas or not but I did like it. I want to do the welding in my garage with gas because of the less potential for sparks.
