[butch27]

Just saw Thomas today. He lost his job and the "T" is at a standstill. Really all he needs is the driveshaft made. Anyway he said Hi to everyone. I've got him helping me on mine a little. I need a 500 or 600 carb. a shiny one.LOL

Thomas is a great friend and one of the first guys to come on this site. I hope things get better soon. I sent you a PM.

All he needs is a driveshaft to be able to finish his car? Whats he need in the way of a driveshaft, what tranny and rear? How long? I have some odds and ends and might be able to fix him up.:lol:

I know I don't have a C-4 slip yoke.

 

[Rick]

Ooops he has an 8.8 rear end.

Ok Thomas just got off the phone with me.He needs A windshield and posts,A drive shaft(he has a home built mock-up)and oh yea and a job.

 

[RPM]

I don't have any Ford drive train stuff. I have several old Chevy shafts here that could be shortened. Wonder if they make cross over joints?:lol:

 

[tfeverfred]

I can check around here and try and get a C4 yoke. I could send it to RPM and maybe we can help Thomas out. Make sure a C4 yoke is what he needs.

 

[RPM]

OK another member has emailed me and he has a driveshaft out of a 68 Cougar that he is willing to give me. We just need a length now.

HOW LONG does this shaft need to be?

 

[Youngster]

The dual length U-joints are as close as your local NAPA. Speedway also lists them.
