JB weld will hold for many years on that crack bud, put it inside and out

I just bought a 1936 ford 2door humpback, your video was very helpful in explaining mechanical brakes. Enjoyed the video....Ralph

Too bad the new owner doesn't put an engine in it then put it to work on the farm, or at least drive it around. But like you said, at least it's not going to scrap. Yes, nice Home Depot lumber!! 🤣🤣

PASS IT ON

Very cool. You do great work. Enjoyed the video. I am now a new subscriber.

Mine was an early '28 AA front axle, transmission and worm drive rear axle. The frame was 3 inch heavy wall angle having a 2 cylinder Wisconsin mouted up front. Front crosmember was an oak barn beam providing a center pivot point cut and welded into an inverted V front AA axle (crop clearance). Sprockets and roller chain connected the air cooled engine to the Ford input shaft, an axe handle engaged a clutch. Came with Wheelhorse rear rims / tires up front, I made adapters to use New Holland hay binder (Farmall Cub) rims with 3 rib tread, rears are still the split rim Ford.

Working on Model A's is the best!! What's the build date on the engine?

👍👍👍

So if this the third installment of the Doodlebug Trilogy and we use The Fast And The Furious franchise as a gauge does this make it Toyoko Drift (I never saw any of them)?😆👍

Hi, that flywheel became lose due your are missing the 2 flywheel dowels part no.: A-6387. The dowels avoid the twist on the bolts and the bolts keep the flywheel in place the dowels catch the twist of the starter, and give rotation action the rigidity. Regards from Curaçao.

She was purring like a rat rod . Sweet !

I needed a replacement block for a 1930 Model A coupe. I bought a used block that had been in a combine per my rebuild shop. There was no number stamped on the block as most farm equipment from Ford did not put a serial number on the blocks. Restamped the old number on the block and kept going with the rebuild. All good.

Great project. I’m sure you know this but for the novice… if the oil pan has sludge the area under the valve cover with be sludged up too. Must clean and make sure the oil drain back holes (3 Of them) are clear of sludge, the main bearings depend solely on these drain back holes for lubrication. It’s good practice to spin the engine over after cleaning all the sludge to make certain that the pump is pumping oil to the area and that oil is getting all the way to the back drain back hole of the engine . While the valve cover is open check valve clearances too . .015” on all valves. My 29 had negative clearance on the front and the rear exhaust valves (had to by 2 new valves as they were slightly burnt from not closing. I lapped all the valves and now she runs like a top!

It runs!!! A coat of paint and she's rebuilt!😉

A laser stripper would clean that up so well.

Weld The Crack Up

love this old stuff

Nice! She's almost ready for the dirt drags!

check the timing using the pin at the front of the engine

Get the gas tank up higher. Its a gravity feed system

👍👍👍

I know that engine is worn but that runs pretty good to be that worn out. That would be a good candidate for a rebuild

Almost sounds like the firing order is off when it backfires.

Why not just seal off each spark plug hole, one at a time ,while you crank the engine, to see if the valves are closing. I have learned from experience that it is always wise to drop the pan for a look and a de-sludging. Great video.

That is a Chevrolet truck hood and radiator shroud.

Suspension type does not matter and toe can be adjusted with a tape measure.

Uh...what happened with the engine knock?

In Sweden these were called EPA-tractor

The rear end would be a worm drive ,which,if it wàst broken has a bronze crown wheel and they do NOT use gear oil burmt a special worm drive oil which wont eat bronze .

That is my dream truck just what dhe looks.like. mike at 77 years😅

Awesome! Looking forward to the fire up!

Great job putting your content together. Your video is interesting to watch. Just subscribed. 👍👍👍

The main reason doodlebugs were made was because it certainly was a cheap way to get a tractor during the Depression, because they could not afford to buy a tractor, and during and shortly after WW2 when you could not get new tractors easily because of the war effort.

😎👍

You narrate well sounds a little like sleeping music

When I was a boy back in the 50s, I had 2 neighbors that has these. they had the original hood and cab on them, but the both had 55 gal barrels on the back. The barrels were cut in half lengthwise and were placed in the bed side by side, then filled with dirt for weight. they added plows on the front and used them to plow all the neighbors driveways. This was in Fulton County, NY, back in the day when they really had snow.

quality says 1080, yet the video is blurreed

Pop in the 50s and 60s too! My Dad made one and I remember it very well. Looked much like this one! He had 2 transmissions in it to make a lot more pulling power for firewood for us! In VT.

always enjoyable to see these old cars and enjines thanks

mRna therapy is not a vaccine.

Very cool... I didn't fast forward at all... I enjoyed watching every last second of the clip... Thanks for bringing it here, to UA-cam ... Best regards ...

Doodlebugs are pure AMERICANA...........................if you have one don't scrap it.

Just found your channel! Enjoyed it! I will check back.

a short rescuevideo in the beginning had been nice! Now we only must belive on what you tell us.

The reason they did that is to get gas rations,it was a way to get fuel !

looking forward to it!

Excellent!! Can't wait for part 2. I once owned a 1928 Ford Doodlebug that was cut down from a Model AA truck. Kind of wish I still owned it. Are you planning on keeping this Doodlebug? They're a lot of fun running around the property on, or even putting back to work.

Is that a tractor rear end

Fun project 👍 I always save the ATF when I service my automatic transmissions to use for loosening up old stuff like your transmission. Just fill them up to the top if I have enough saved. Run it a bit and drain it. Save the dirty atf for my oil burning heater.

That Whites rear and original rims is impressive.
