Re: Cleaning

When I'm under my unrestored Tudor I'm working on something not cleaning but I do think about the last time some of the bolts had a wrench on them it was when the car was built or maybe when my Grandfather worked on it. But when the little specks of original paint or rust or maybe dirt from some roa...

Re: Large drum hydraulic brakes

005 R.jpg Dennis, I think you grind the shoe to allow room for the brake cam to clear. The cam will press on the back of the shoe. I don't know about the adjuster clearance. Frank, I guess the bolt holes are 5 X 5-1/2' in those drums. I believe Mid 50's Chevy drums are 5 X 4-3/4". You would have to...

Re: Large drum hydraulic brakes

I wish I had a parts list. The owner said he thought the master cylinder was 55 T-bird. The parts shown are what he had when I was there except the last photo of the anchor pins which I found on ebay after looking at dozens of photos. They are 55-62 Chevy (maybe Corvette) #3705732 and are being repr...

Re: In-line fuel filter recomendations

I believe this is the filter recommended by Stan Howe. It came from MODEL A GARAGE in Luray Va.
I have one on my 26 tudor with a U&J carb and my son has one on his 26 roadster with a Model B carb and both cars run great with no fuel delivery problems.
