John right now I think we have everything to get her going other than a windshield. We just need to get some free time to put her together.

I most likely have a used one, FREE if you want it.....well maybe another bottle of the hot stuff good in my chilie....

I got the mallory unilite out of the 460 going in the 66 and I found a correct adapter to get rid of the spreadbore carb used on the 460s,it does not have the same bolt pattern as a QJ or thermoquad and those cheap adapters kind of make them run like crap. My 77 F150 with a 460 had the spreadbore originally and someone adapted a QJ to it and with the adapter plus the original spacer it was a dog,I used that adapter to mount the holley I got off Tim and it runs alot better but the adapter is ordered and should be here late next week. The adapter was 58 dollars plus some change and I got it from summit and the part number is TRD-2199,its not like the cheap adapter that is open around all four parts as this one is made with all four ports.

Anyone want to work on the gasser Friday or Saturday night? It's getting cool enough that we don't have to have a heat stroke. 12th or 13th? We could get the rearend sanded down, painted and put together if nothing else.

I'd be up for comming down after work on friday

Y'all come on down now, ya hear........

Come get this windsheild......

no one other than Cole can make it? Should we hold off for a few more weeks and just make this a winter project? what do you guys think?
John as soon as I get a free chance I'll try to give you a call about the windshield. I'm still playing catch up around here

Anyone want to ride up this week sometime to get the windshield?
Nov, 8th will be the next work session Saturday starting at 1pm. Anyone who wants to get their hands dirty let me hear from ya. I'd like to get the rearend set up in it and rolling on it's slicks.
We need to take a grinder with a wire wheel to the housing while someone else is cleaning the pig and axels. Paint it, stick it together all while someone else is ripping out the old rearend.

Let me know when you want to go up Steve ill go with you give me a call.

might try and make it.

i think we should have the work sessions on thursday nights.... but what do i know...

we tried that but everyone has to work the next day so we couldn't get anyone to do anything. we will try this and see how it works out. If anyone wants to stop over before than and get the rearend we could set it up in my garage behind the house.
Is anyone willing to buy the gasket? Anyone else wanting to spring for the gear oil?

I'll put the word out if you need help, maybe puddin Head me and a few other falcon nuts will come help ya....is it a 8" or 9" I might have a FREE gasket for ya.......I buy them by the hand full, I do have Fords after all!!!!

The Falcon leaving it's hole


Randy Vickers only charged us gas money for the tow. Thanks Randy!


The Gasser is in my garage ready for her work session.

We will be trying to get a few things done. Pulling the side glass, getting the rearend set up and installed and some metal work and welding on the fenderwells and firewall.
Amy's going out tonight to gab pop and food. Any requests?

I will be there

We didn't have a bad work crew going on. Myself, Chad, Charlie, Dennis, Ronnie, Corey, Benjamin, Johnny Stamper, Cole, Doug, Jeff and even Terry(Puddin head himself) drove down from Ohio to help out. Before we got dirty Amy fixed a bunch of pizza, cookies, brownies and candy in general. lol We watched a new hot rod flick I had just got in the mail, while we grubbed out.
A littlle meeting about club politics went on and then off to the garage. A small meeting about the future look and what we need from the gasser and then it was on.

When we first hit the gasser it was like a swarm of killer bees. Some of us could find a spot to get to because it was covered.


Front fender had to come back off

The rest of the glass was coming out one way or the other.



Terry with his knowledge of Falcons came in to play a few times.
