  1. The Black one above, "Lakes Plugs" but what kinda' wheels we gonna run ?
  2. I got 'em. But it seems to be lost in time. Here's some stuff from the H.A.M.B. : http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/kustoms-history-question-lakes-pipes.128765/ and : http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/origin-of-lakes-pipes.755033/
  3. Read the article : http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Dirty_Harry
  4. "Lake Plugs" ? But the song Doesn't say "Lake Plugs".
  5. I ain't buyin' that. Not that you didn't hear it. But that that's what they are. Other than reversionary history, change it as we go.
  6. "Lake Pipes" ? any one ? I've ask this here before. These have always been "Lake Pipes" to me.
  7. Goin' on the H.A.M.B. they cover that and a bunch of others.
  8. Let's Keep It Simple Shallwe ? One at a time. I know, "same group" but it's a Model A.
  9. Ok, none of this will show up on our model, She's ported and relieved and she's stroked and bored. But how about the "four on the floor." What are we talkin' here? Looks like all kind of adaptors were / are available. So take yer pick, Volvo ? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/tech-cheap-and-easy-4-speed-to-flathead-v8.452937/ So it won't have to be a top shift like the old Fords. It can be a side shift like most of the sixty's GM, Ford and MOPAR trannies. They can all have a shifter stickin' outta the floor.
  10. Some unknowns, what kinda intake ya gonna use ? Rear end ?
  11. Now to interpret the lyrics. Little Deuce Coupe. 3 window or Five ?
  12. To set the mood, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6DrMkLNYKw Some reference material : LyricsLittle deuce Coupe You don't know what I got Little deuce Coupe You don't know what I got Well I'm not braggin' babe so don't put me down But I've got the fastest set of wheels in town When something comes up to me he don't even try Cause if I had a set of wings man I know she could fly She's my little deuce coupe You don't know what I got (My little deuce coupe) (You don't know what I got) Just a little deuce coupe with a flat head mill But she'll walk a Thunderbird like (she's) it's standin' still She's ported and relieved and she's stroked and bored. She'll do a hundred and forty with the top end floored She's my little deuce coupe You don't know what I got (My little deuce coupe) (You don't know what I got) She's got a competition clutch with the four on the floor And she purrs like a kitten till the lake pipes roar And if that ain't enough to make you flip your lid There's one more thing, I got the pink slip daddy And comin' off the line when the light turns green Well she blows 'em outta the water like you never seen I get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer When I get rubber in all four gears She's my little deuce coupe You don't know what I got (My little deuce coupe) (You don't know what I got) She's my little deuce coupe You don't know what I got (My little deuce coupe) (You don't know what I got) She's my little deuce coupe You don't know what I got
  13. A little history : http://www.scalemodelnews.com/2009/11/still-superb-monogram-ultimates.html
  14. Came out before the Mustang (Pony Car ) so I guess so.
  15. Aaaah. But what parts ? and PE ?
  16. I think that's a lot of what makes for a "Good" looking hot rod, how all the parts work together.
  17. Here's some more on Harry's guns: http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Dirty_Harry . " Mister. I gotts ta know."
