    Great job and great video. No way I would have attempted to do that. At beginning of video, looked like Little Bit had gotten out of bed. What a cutie pie.

    As a 65 yr old man your not 20 anymore things might go a little better if you quit working on the floor . It's a lot easier on your back & knees . Maybe you wont get so flustered . Just a thought . Good Show

    Good job on the transmission. First new car was 63 Falcon 6cyl/Fordomatic. In the family for 17 years with no drivetrain or suspension probs. Added a drain plug to transmission pan and replaced fluid when needed. My Falcon made some long trips. It survived city traffic in Atlanta and one winter in NY. With the 6 the stock Falcon will peak at 80-85 on a straight open road. That is all. It is a light car so should consider suspension and brake upgrades if you make it faster. Falcon bodies are very rust resistant. Original finish lasted a long time with a good wax job every year.

    That Sporty should be a fun project. I don't know what year that thing is, but if she'd like a bit more power on it, going from the stock 8.5 : 1 to 10.25 : 1 compression, putting an Andrews V8 (or compatible lift and duration, depending on its year) cam, with S&S Super E can really wake those things up. What's next for Millie ?? Interior work? Also, Holy Cow, Li'l Bit is growing up way fast!

    Glad you're back my 54 ford crestline had a fordomatic had it rebuilt twice by 2 different transmission shops both who were very reliable shops and neither one lasted more than a couple hundred miles each i finally found a parts car and swapped mine to a 3speed and now its a 5speed hope you have better luck. What's up with the LTD for that boy

    I have rebuilt a number of transmissions Will tell you this every time I did not use every thing in the kit it bit me in the ass It was not very long and I was redoing that transmission after I paid to re do a few I started doing complete rebuilds it stops the weakest link theory when u replace just whats worn you cause another part to now be the new weakest link

    I worked in a transmission shop when I was younger and I was taught take it all out in order and back in the the way it came out. I had problems in the beginning so I learned on my own just take pictures like with drum brakes when first learned. Needless to say I was allergic to the transmission fluid so it didn't last long

    Maybe I'm wrong but that looked like a half done job to me seems to me that you would automatically go through it from end to end to do a good job I mean wouldn't that be the right way to do it?

    • @garthsgraveyardgarage
      @garthsgraveyardgarage  3 місяці тому

      Personal preference I guess, but I was told on these old 2 speeds you can just repair what's broken, so that's what I did.

    Why would anyone want to rebuild that lousy air-cooled two speed Fordomatic trans ? Best relpace it with a three speed (C-3, C-4) or a standard trans.

      @@garthsgraveyardgarage I aquired a 63 Falcon with a 170 cui six and the two speed auto. It took forever to reach hiway speeds. The only redeemable quality was that it was miserly on gas.
