What is posted here is all very good information. I would add that the "thump" that the Dynaflow gives when shifted into drive or into reverse is alarming to the uninitiated. As John says, the fast idle exacerbates that "thump". So, it's best to wait until the nailhead is warmed up, before driving away. Waiting for warm up will give you an all around better performance anyway And, If I understand correctly, the '56 dynaflow has a two stage stator for low as well as Drive. (I know that the '55 has a two stage stator in Drive only) Edit: and, don't drive over 35mph in low, However, i've found that driving low around town or parking lots will help keep the engine temp down

It's a nice car and I especially like the color. If I were in the market, I would certainly be tempted

Surely the ad wouldn't be kicked off because the car has a paint scheme from one year away from its year of manufacture ? And for everyone that writes a post of praise or otherwise, I'm sure Joesclassics appreciates the bump to the top of the list....

try "what is it " ;-D

Welcome to the forum. There is a wealth of knowledge here. Someone that knows is sure to chime in soon

Right !! The owner of the Rolls also has a '52 Bentley. The Bentley was originally a stately grey and black. It now sports a solid white... :-( The Brides love a white car for weddings.

I just drove for a wedding in a 1939 Rolls Royce. It's all stock. Except for a Tail/Brake/tag light on the left rear bumper. It even has operational semaphore turn signals I drove 20 miles north on I 59 then back down I -59 to I-459 for about 30 miles. I drove 55-60 mph edit: add photos

WOW !!!

Yep. As I suspected, That speedometer is used for more than one model truck. It is for Ford trucks for sure

Nice color. Not original color? door jambs and fire wall look green? Is a white dash correct? The seats look incorrect I like the car. $10,500 might be right

That's too bad.. good Luck to you. Keep us posted ,,,

Nice !! Congratulations !! Still, we would like to see some Pictures !

Looks like a 1952 Ford F1 pickup speedometer (might also fit other F1 years?)

Not a '69 Ford truck '69 Ford truck dashboard;

Touching

No sweat. We're all good

Sorry, I did not get an email from you ...

WOW !!! That looks like million bucks !!! Very Nice !!

Having the opportunities to drive '40 Packard , '36 Packard '39 Rolls Royce, and '30&'31 Ford 'A' I say, I think that's it.

I;m glad you're getting better. I hope your improvement continues. I'll drink a glass of water to your health !

Oh !! Nice work ! Mine aren't near that sophisticated. The ones I use are some that I picked up 'free' (free with any purchase) at Harbor Freight. They attach with a magnet.

I'll take one !!

very nice !

The photos may be old enough that they are photos of the car in original ​condition

I've watched every episode at least a dozen times. I knew Otis's car without seeing the picture.
