They'd run forever, though, if you topped the oil off every time you fueled up. But seriously the sea air in the Maritimes is good for salting codfish, but not much else. |

One spring we were working on his boat in the boatyard, getting it ready for launching. We drove to a gas station and filled up about six, five gallon gas cans to fuel up the boat. We put them in the wagon with the rear seats folded down to make room. Couldn't shut the rear doors because the whole car had deformed due to the weight of the gas cans. The early 70's were not the best years for Ford or any other American manufacturer for that matter. |

The early 70's were not the best years for Ford or any other American manufacturer for that matter. I have a '70 Torino GT fastback, 351C 4V, auto, air, power disc brake car sitting in my shop on my lift. It was bought new in '69 by a man in Greenville, SC, and I'm the second registered owner. It had a thumb-sized rust spot in the inner lower rear quarter caused by trash collecting in the trunk crevice and holding moisture (I fixed it already), and a half-dollar sized soft spot in the passenger floor right above the exhaust. Other than that it's solid and rust-free, but it has lived its entire life in SC. Hope to get it back on the road by next spring with fresh paint, carpet, motor and tranny, and chrome. Lots of work, but it's fun and relaxing for me. |

I'm not Kevin, so if you want to carry on this conversation like an adult with a brain, do so.

Do you realize there is no real data that suggests that it is anything more than snake oil? Do you realize there are millions of sites telling you it just doesn't do anything? This guy seems knowledgeable: "Undercoating that goes semi hard doesn't really do much and it doesn't creep into crevices. Iv'e been rustproffing vehicles myself for over 15 years. We first tried used oil but it made such a mess, then 10W30, then Rust Check, then Krown and now Fluid Film. I have also tried putting the black undercoating on with a Shutz gun and it just made the truck very hard to work on later, I didn't see any benefits. The key to rustproofing is getting where you can't see, this includes inside body panels, under hood and all the chassis. We spray all of our farm equipment before it's put into storage and all of our snow equipment. Who cares if it attracts dust. the dust and FF together actually create a protective coating that will be washed off in the spring. How well can you wash underneath your truck? This is actually the first fall I've used FF but I'm just promoting rust proofing in general. FF is competitive in price and doesn't seem to run or drip like the others. I manged to spray over 6 gallons of bulk this fall, so for less then $10 /vehicle using bulk and less then $20/ vehicle using aerysol cans IMO you would be stupid not to use it, taking into consideration the price of equipment. Sorry for the long post" |

My last three new vehicles have all received yearly application of Krown Rustproofing. It works....important since I usually keep my vehicles approx 10 years. Actually, rusproofing is a gimmick to get your money. Probably the same dealer that said he sold you a "truck" right? Wrong Kevin, although the dealer's 'business manager' tried really hard to sign me up for their version. Krown Rustproofing has the recommendation of the Canadian Automobile Protection Association. I'm not Kevin, so if you want to carry on this conversation like an adult with a brain, do so. Now, do you realize that the dealer almost always outsources that work to businesses just like you are talking about. Do you realize there is no real data that suggests that it is anything more than snake oil? Do you realize there are millions of sites telling you it just doesn't do anything? This guy seems knowledgeable: "Undercoating that goes semi hard doesn't really do much and it doesn't creep into crevices. Iv'e been rustproffing vehicles myself for over 15 years. We first tried used oil but it made such a mess, then 10W30, then Rust Check, then Krown and now Fluid Film. I have also tried putting the black undercoating on with a Shutz gun and it just made the truck very hard to work on later, I didn't see any benefits. The key to rustproofing is getting where you can't see, this includes inside body panels, under hood and all the chassis. We spray all of our farm equipment before it's put into storage and all of our snow equipment. Who cares if it attracts dust. the dust and FF together actually create a protective coating that will be washed off in the spring. How well can you wash underneath your truck? This is actually the first fall I've used FF but I'm just promoting rust proofing in general. FF is competitive in price and doesn't seem to run or drip like the others. I manged to spray over 6 gallons of bulk this fall, so for less then $10 /vehicle using bulk and less then $20/ vehicle using aerysol cans IMO you would be stupid not to use it, taking into consideration the price of equipment. Sorry for the long post" This guy?? Is he an engineer or an undercoating specialist? Can't you read, moron? Another example, Kevin? |

My mom drove it around for years. We had older station wagons in the family, all 1948-49 jeep vehicles. Like this: http://tinyurl.com/d2erlsx But ours never had the "woody" side trim. If that had a three on the floor, it was because someone put it there. That car came with a three on the tree or a pushbutton auto. Ours had a three speed on the floor. It might have been a '61 instead of a '62 in that photo. Your post, by the way, is a perfect example of why hardly anyone posts specific boating posts here...because assholes like you nitpick everything, even the inconsequential. The truth is the truth. The truth? I didn't say the photo in question was the car we had. In fact, I pointed out ours was a different color. You get off on nit-picking the inconsequential because you really don't have a damned worthwhile idea to post, ever. You're like a vampire mosquito, moving in to suck out a drop of blood whenever you can. No wonder you claim to be unmarried. No decent woman would go out on a second date with you. A different color makes it have a three on the floor??? And a 61 will still have a three on the tree. You lied, again, and you know it, that's why the low life vile lies and insults. I'm not married by CHOICE you moron. Some people have different ideas about what life should be about than you. Therein lies your problem. You think that if you don't like something, anybody that should is stupid, or some-such. Then if you like something and someone else doesn't, same thing. What a narrow minded twit you are. Please. I am sure you can google up Valiant station wagons from that era that came from the factory with a three speed on the floor. You've already demonstrated your stupidity...no need to keep doing it. Bull****. Show me, then. |

Here you go, asshole: "The 1960-1961 "A" body compacts had a 3-on-the-floor shifter, which was replaced for 1962 with a 3-on-the-tree. In 1964 you could get a 4-on-the-floor, even with the slant 6. That option continued with the 273/340/360 V-8s to the end in 1976." http://www.valiant.org/transmissions.html As you said, "a 61 will still have a three on the tree." Unless, of course, it has a 3-on-the-floor. Dumb****. That wasn't a "A" body, "Dumb****". |

I have a '70 Torino GT fastback, 351C 4V, auto, air, power disc brake car sitting in my shop on my lift. It was bought new in '69 by a man in Greenville, SC, and I'm the second registered owner. It had a thumb-sized rust spot in the inner lower rear quarter caused by trash collecting in the trunk crevice and holding moisture (I fixed it already), and a half-dollar sized soft spot in the passenger floor right above the exhaust. Other than that it's solid and rust-free, but it has lived its entire life in SC. Hope to get it back on the road by next spring with fresh paint, carpet, motor and tranny, and chrome. Lots of work, but it's fun and relaxing for me. I love Ford's of that era. It doesn't matter if they are gas sucking pigs either. |

I drove it over to my brothers house, and when I backed out of his drive way and just started down the gravel road, I heard something go ka-thukk and felt like something was dragging. I got out of the car and the back bumper was being held to the car only by the wires to the license plate light... |

My last three new vehicles have all received yearly application of Krown Rustproofing. It works....important since I usually keep my vehicles approx 10 years. Actually, rusproofing is a gimmick to get your money. Probably the same dealer that said he sold you a "truck" right? Wrong Kevin, although the dealer's 'business manager' tried really hard to sign me up for their version. Krown Rustproofing has the recommendation of the Canadian Automobile Protection Association. These scams have been around for years. They often do more damage than good. Krown is likely a top advertiser in their magazine. Skip it and save the money. |

Wrong Kevin, although the dealer's 'business manager' tried really hard to sign me up for their version. Krown Rustproofing has the recommendation of the Canadian Automobile Protection Association. I'm not Kevin, so if you want to carry on this conversation like an adult with a brain, do so. Now, do you realize that the dealer almost always outsources that work to businesses just like you are talking about. Do you realize there is no real data that suggests that it is anything more than snake oil? Do you realize there are millions of sites telling you it just doesn't do anything? This guy seems knowledgeable: "Undercoating that goes semi hard doesn't really do much and it doesn't creep into crevices. Iv'e been rustproffing vehicles myself for over 15 years. We first tried used oil but it made such a mess, then 10W30, then Rust Check, then Krown and now Fluid Film. I have also tried putting the black undercoating on with a Shutz gun and it just made the truck very hard to work on later, I didn't see any benefits. The key to rustproofing is getting where you can't see, this includes inside body panels, under hood and all the chassis. We spray all of our farm equipment before it's put into storage and all of our snow equipment. Who cares if it attracts dust. the dust and FF together actually create a protective coating that will be washed off in the spring. How well can you wash underneath your truck? This is actually the first fall I've used FF but I'm just promoting rust proofing in general. FF is competitive in price and doesn't seem to run or drip like the others. I manged to spray over 6 gallons of bulk this fall, so for less then $10 /vehicle using bulk and less then $20/ vehicle using aerysol cans IMO you would be stupid not to use it, taking into consideration the price of equipment. Sorry for the long post" This guy?? Is he an engineer or an undercoating specialist? Undercoating is dead. Don't waste your money. |
