Truly garbage TV. Must've felt real good to trash the "auto shop" rebuild while ignoring the absolute beginner step of priming the motor. Fake and stupid.

As of right now (10a.m. Eastern) the phone number listed on the link from Falcon67 is a good number. Its in Southern Ontario and went to voicemail. The outgoing message prompted me to list specific part I'm inquiring about. Maybe worth a phone call on a weekday.

Non-FE Discussion Forum / Does anyone have experience with upholstery from Dearborn Classics?
« on: May 14, 2020, 06:43:02 PM »
I remember reading that SMS auto interiors had a 19% off sale due to Covid. I called them and got a quote for $849.00 for a 1963 Galaxie 500 front bench in vinyl. Today I looked at Dearborn Classics site and they want $364.49 for the same seat cover. Can the SMS seat be twice as good, and then some, than the DC product? Just wondering. Thanks, Val.

Greg, get almost all the pcs. from Rockauto.com . There are a few options as noted for the offset shaft eliminator kit. Rareparts is the most expensive route. My mechanic friend made some eliminators for me. Night and day difference in the way the car drives. Those wonky shafts were NOT a better idea from Ford.

That's a beautiful car Alan. No shame in running a 385 series either... going to Monster Truck shows made a believer out of me. Back then they had a minimum weight of 10,000 lbs. They jumped 15ft. in the air with ease and did it all night too. Very nice car.

Its a good looking car but, since it would need at least $15,000 worth of special parts, just an overpriced data plate. Tell me more about your un-molested longroof.

That's the esteemed Dennis K. wheeling his T-bolt(no.2?). I was sweating along with him as none of those pillocks could give a proper hand signal!

Over on the other forum (fordfe.com), there is currently one listed for sale. Looks new and a great price. Not mine.

The prices might be pie in the sky but, there's no disputing the quality of a Donald Allen build. Top Flite.
