Hey Gary, Yes it is an over reaction by some to see these birds grounded. What next then, our M37's or model T's if there is a crash? I was on the fence after this tragedy since I was close to the Collings group. As a fellow on another forum summed it up best: " Vintage aircraft are actually re...

We in the vintage aviation community are deeply saddened by yesterdays loss of the Collings Foundation's B-17G "909" in a tragic accident in Windsor Locks. CT. I have heard various reports of loss of life from 5 to seven. Reports are ongoing. I had the honor of working on and flying in thi...

Looks like a great time out there. Thanks for sharing the pics.

Hey There K8icu,

Good to hear from you. I never really thought about B1 vs. A1? Your explanation sounds good to me. How is your truck coming along?

Go Browns

Looks great Robi. Thanks for the work on this.

Thanks for the update MM. Good to hear from you.

That's the way to go. I have my spherical rod ends abut have not got around fabricating the linkage yet. Too many home fix up projects getting in the way of quality truck time

It is the same link on a DeSoto :lol: They are easy to build back up with braze. I try to keep mine cleaned lubed ever...

Sounds like an awesome trip. About 75 miles one way has been my furthest jaunt in NC or Ohio. Glad all went well. My rig does more sitting than driving nowadays but still starts right up like day one. Hope to give it some TLC and get out in the woods this month. Been busy re-doing and screening in o...

What is left of Hercules Engine is in Massillon, Oh and that is most likely who you spoke with. You may try to retrofit a gauge/sender combo from Stewart Warner or the like.

Enjoy, relax, and recharge

Welcome aboard Robyn. Thanks for sharing the pics and the great video. I am surprised you did not yank the rear end out of the Ford with that rolling take off :D I too experienced a driveshaft failure last year backing into my spot at a show while 40 people were watching :oops: . Ends up there was a...

I have still been trying to access the pictures page. Now I get "access denied" and a blank page?

Good to hear from you old friend. The tires look great . Glad you are well
