  1. Jake, my post on the SDC Forum got a response today from the main Admin. Hopefully you will hear from him soon. Here is what he said: "What happens is, if you haven’t been signed in for a long period of time (usually more than a year), the system deactivate your account and if it remains inactive for another year, deletes it. If I receive a request through the admin account to turn it back on, I can. i’ll look up Bryan’s account and see what I can do. Thanks for the ping."
  2. Jake, I posted over at the SDC Forum and specifically asked the main admin to help you.
  3. nsbrassnut, this is a very enjoyable and informative thread! I don't know much about Stanleys, but hope to learn more thru this thread. A lot of my interest is due to 40 years of steam experience via my career (but it was supercritical steam at 3500psig/1000deg F turbine inlet conditions). Thank you for taking the time to document your revival of this car!
  4. I'm not sure about the driveshaft hookup to the transmission. Maybe someone else here can answer that.
  5. Engine will be set up for a flywheel/clutch versus a torque converter; of course, the transmission will be different; manual will have clutch linkage; usually the rear axle ratio will be different between a manual and automatic; driveshaft length will be different. If you need specific part info, your best bet is to obtain a Chassis Parts Manual that covers your car.
  6. Not mine, saw it on Craigslist and seems like a really great deal for someone who needs parts, especially for only $500. Located in Alvin Texas. Link: https://houston.craigslist.org/pts/d/alvin-1914-studebaker-antique-car/7709309053.html Lots of good pictures. "1914 - ish Studebaker car chassis. Perfect for a 1910s speedster / race car project. $500 cash in person. ALVIN, TX 77511. About the size of a 1928 - 1931 Model A Ford frame"
  7. Very innovative repair using the aluminum slugs! Thank you for sharing in such detail.
  8. Definitely a thread to follow! Great pictures too. I bet beating on that head to get it off was scary...........glad to hear there was no damage.
  9. My unsolicited input: Option 1, completely original, doesn't sound like much fun to me . I think either Option 2 or Option 3 would be great. Cycle fenders and relocated sidemount spares is really 'dare to be different' and to me make the most impactful change while still looking like something that would have been done 'back in the day'. Whatever you end up doing will be great, because you are very creative.
  10. Cool truck, and great pics you found! What are your plans for it now?
  11. He has put unmodified fenders on the car, and is selling the modified fenders. No, he is keeping the Jag engine.
  12. A 1980 Bronco that's not drivable? No, I do not think you are going to find anyone to trade you a fully restored Mustang for that.
  13. Engine sounds great! Y'all are more than halfway there!
