Chicago Guys: Blue Bandit Pics Wanted | The H. A. M. B. My brother owned the Blue Bandit Gto for a short time in the early 70's He sold it to a Pontiac collector who at the time was around Olney Illinois He found the car again a year or two ago It is in a building in Texas , but the guy wouldn't price it He said Don Gay had tried to buy it back before he died
Hot Rods Ford 429 460-best intake manifold for high HP? That is the Blue Thunder 4v dp intake they are a dealer Not a bad intake, but the Stealth is easier to obtain I would not expect to see an incredible difference between the Stealth the dual 4 bbl , unless the carburetors on the 2x4 are not tuned effectively
Chicago Guys: Blue Bandit Pics Wanted | Page 2 | The H. A. M. B. I actually talked with the guys brother today that owns the Blue Bandit GTO funny car, it is in a garage in Texas, the guy won't allow anyone to see it, but his brother said the guy is getting ready to retire and is going to restore it and nostagia race it he said it is exactly the way it was when his brother bought it from mine but it was weathered
Blue Dot Tail Lights WHY? When did this start? | The H. A. M. B. The Blue-Dots have become "legend" so the reality of the matter is lost in the fog of memories and dreams From all I have read and heard from "old-timers" they were never the norm in car circles, never universally popular throughout the country, and ceased being available sometime around 1957-58
Technical What Color Should Good Ignition Spark Be? - The Jalopy Journal Growing up working with small engines and lawnmowers, we always looked for a fat blue spark at a grounded plug, that made a snapping noise in the air Red or orange, no good These had a coil or magneto type ignition How about a points and condenser ignition with a straight 6 or V8? Is it the mag only that makes a blue spark?
Removing bluing from chrome headers. [polisher?] - The Jalopy Journal The plating appears to be in good condition but it's turned blue I've had limited sucess with a product called "Blue-away" purchased at the local Harley shop on some plated exhaust manifolds but it took a ton of rubbing and only about 50 #37; of the bluing came out Plus, it was obviously abrasive with some kinda grit in it
Technical - Rattle can blues | The H. A. M. B. - The Jalopy Journal The 2nd time I painted it, both the blue and the white were oil based paint, and I sprayed both with a cheap HF gun The shine lasted longer after being sprayed The oil based paint (without the hardener) was good for 3-4 years before it looks really old
Ford 289 302 intakes??? | The H. A. M. B. - The Jalopy Journal The Blue Thunder Cobra will WALK ALL OVER the rest, with the possible exception of the Stealth(sorry, didnt notice it there the first time) Compared to the original Cobra intake, the runners are enlarged, and the septum is opened up It'll run neck and neck with the Performer RPM
History Traditional hot rod paint colors - The Jalopy Journal I like candy red over gold and midnight blue But both were available and in use in the period of car that I like I also like black real well but it is hardtop get a car black prepped and I am a lazy bastard Anyway if you are shooting for a specific period of car your paint choices are like you parts, limited to the period
Flattening Rustoleum Tremclad | The H. A. M. B. - The Jalopy Journal The car was blue (door jambs etc still are) so it would be easiest for me to stay with some shade of blue The only blue's that Tremclad sells are gloss and I really wanted a flat or semigloss So I monkeyed around and came up with what looks to me like a vintage shade of blue not too bright (kinda like me) and not too glossy
