I need about 6 to 8 quality pictures of cars. They need 8 good pictures to choose one for the T shirt of the 2019 Homecoming show. If anyone want to email me a couple quality photos I will collect them and forward them on to the Homecoming organizers.

jensenracing77 replied to the topic Carburetor tags in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 9 months ago
All of my 63 carburetors had the chimney and all my 62’s do not have it. I am only assuming that they have not been changed in the past.
On another note, I finely check my MPG since I made the jet modifications and puled out the needle. I am at 17 MPG where before, I “think” I was at 19. I am going to make another change on this and see if I can…[Read more]

jensenracing77 started the topic Carburetor tags in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 9 months ago
I have tags from 3 Jetfire model carburetors. 7023150 is from a 63 automatic carburetor, 7023151 is from a 63 4 speed carburetor, 7020951 is from a 62 automatic carburetor. I am wondering what the tag number should be on a 62 4 speed? Our 4 speed car does not have one and wondering what it should be.

I did not want these emblems but I had to buy them to get the other stuff I wanted. I believe they are Cutlass and f-85, Don’t believe they were on Jetfire. I likely have to much in them and only looking to get out of them what I paid for them. I would need $90 for them and I will cover shipping.
I hope to get a SUPPER cool part from this guy…[Read more]

I am almost done with this display engine. I did not go overboard with the little details, Just wanted to have the general turbo system installed. I have more to do but I will not likely install the plug wires, coil, or other non turbo related items. I will need to get some decals for the air cleaner also. After this, I need to make some kind of…[Read more]

jensenracing77 replied to the topic Restoration of our 62 4 speed Jetfire in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 10 months ago
This car is on hold but I had already sent in the 4 speed carburetor and other parts to be recolored. He just sent me an email that he got them finished and ready to send back to me. I had sent them to Sparky’s carbs. There are so many little parts to these that it is more than the usual fee for a 4 bbl carb coloring. It was $320 for all the…[Read more]

Here is one to add to the list Jim. It is built the same week as our automatic car. 05E and is number 898. The tag was almost to far got to read. It is 29 cars newer than our car. Ours was shipped to NY and this car was new in PA.
This car is to far gone to ever restore

Bringing this back up. I have talked to some people and looks like we could get at least 6 cars so far. I think it would be easy to get a couple others I know of to go.
I just talked to Judy that has a major roll in running the Homecoming show. She said that 2019 is not set yet as to what the car will be. Maybe it will be possible for the 2019…[Read more]

Thanks for all the information Jim. Looks like I need to try and come up with a way to check this NOS cam with a dial indicator next to one of my NOS cams. I could just go with the Crower like I used in the automatic car but I would like to use this NOS cam in the 4 speed car if I can be sure it is the same. I know the lift is the same but the…[Read more]

I have a question on camshafts. The 1972 parts book I have shows part number 1362245 for 61-63 F-85. I picked up an NOS cam and has that part number on the GM tube it came in. I found that the cam has a number that is cast into it and that number is 1362244 but is NOS and in the 1362245 tube. I grabbed both of my used Jetfire cams and both of them…[Read more]

I start entirely to many projects when I need to finish a couple old ones…. I picked this engine up last year near St Louis. I took all the good parts off of it already so I decided to make a display engine with what is left. This engine will be built from almost all junk parts. The heads are likely rebuildable but some of the head bolts broke…[Read more]

That is really cool Jim! I am going to try to get a picture of every cowl tag I possibly can when I am around these cars. I know of some junkers that would be nice to add to the list if I can get the info off of them.

That is very possible that someone removed it. From what I understand, the car had more history apart than it did together.

jensenracing77 replied to the topic Cowl or fire wall tag info in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 10 months ago
The one we had did not have power brakes or A/C but it did have automatic and power steering. One of our 62’s has power steering and the other does not and neither of them have the 2M but maybe the 2M is a 63 only code? I don’t believe the power steering could be it.
