I made mine, and they could have/should have, been done much better. If I had to do it again, I'd use the us car tool stuff. Tha saving grace of my rather shabby install, is that the subframe connectors are welded to the eight point roll bar in the car. It makes for a pretty solid install, in a...

Love those! Simply gorgeous!

Bought a 2dr 62 Savoy many years ago. Got used to its looks, and it almost always gets some sort of reaction. I tell everybody that it's the second ugliest car ever made. The 61 Plymouth is worse. (and I still want one. 2dr wagon please!)

I can't get a pic of this, but..... Scratchin Cudabuggers belly, laying on his back, rear leg kicking, while he's chewing on my beard, and his tail is laying across the cat....who is completely ignoring the goings-on. Good times.

I was not trying to imply you made that mistake Doug. Just that it looks familiar. And I KNOW Bob's rat (my friend) was routinely into valve float.

I use stainless grade 8 setscrews as carb studs in my aluminum Intakes, so I don't worry a bit about thread pullout. I have a homemade carb plate with several holes, so u can use it with or without a trans. But the last time I put in my 440, my plate, and my chains were at the other home...

They will stop all drone, if the tuned length is correct. There is math involved if you are comfortable with that, or you can make it adjustable till you get the right length. Like Charlie Brown is doing.

The trouble with speedmaster parts is that they are sometimes (black friday) SOO cheap, it's hard to resist. And sometimes, it's the difference between getting an engine running, or having not enough parts/budget to finish. Or sometimes, money saved in one area of a build enables extravagant...

....but NOT cheap! (That would make a hemicuda restoration look easy!)

I have a billet roller that looks just like that in several places. (It was a freebie from a friend in case I wanted to repair and regrind it.) We decided it was from valve float/tired springs in his case. He overrevved his rat motor on a regular basis.

I LIKE the flowmaster sound, but not the usual Flowmaster volume. Most people buy 40s or 44s, and have terrible drone and too loud. I bought the biggest, longest muffler that would fit under my 62, and a nice long huge direct fit FM for my dually, and was happy with the sound in both cases. Too...

Great Pyr? (I LOVE great pyr's. Great dogs!)

My Dad was red/green colorblind. Red=brown Green=brown Brown=gray. I understand your difficulty.

You've got the cordovan on the inside. How could it not be "okay" on the outside? And some metallic helps brown be less bland. (And some pearl if it can be squeezed into the budget.)

With your interior, I would 100% do the colors in post #680. Or, whatever inexpensive paint that can be close. It doesn't need to be the exact 62 shade. Sure do like #680! And get somebody who isn't color blind to help out, lol.

I don't give a ship what the factory ride height is, or how it's measured. I set it where I want it.

New-penny copper... with a beige roof, to carry off the nice interior. I love a two-tone on a 62. I'm sorry I didn't put a white roof on mine when I painted it blue. Or, as and alternative... red. Red works fine with a tan/brown interior. Red is a classic 62 color. Just look at the red maxwedges.

Covered above. Pushrod cup size.

My Mom was Canadian, and brought back a big can of Roger's Syrup from her last trip there. I assumed some sort of Canadian pure maple syrup, light colored. I was used to Mrs Butterworths, so I didn't care for it. I wonder if they still make it?

My mom had a fabulous recipe for pancakes from scratch. Involved folding in (not mixing) whipped egg whites. Lightest, most fluffy pancakes I've ever had. Recipe is long gone, unfortunately. I haven't made any in probably thirty years. I'm lazy and old now. Generic eggo waffles, generic...
