Well, it's Spring and it seems like Crosleys are coming out of the woodwork. My son called last night from Western Pa. and told me about a 48 sedan, amateur...
I have had mine out a lot since March. Since the gas is as high as it is, anytime I have to make a run to town I drive one of the little guys. Like Powell...

Yes, it's about that time. I'm nearly done with floor replacement and I'm about set to drop the motor back in the car. Little bit of a background before I get...
#1, you do need the tabs, service motors has them. #2 Yes, the trans has to go in first. #3 Somebody in the club should have a cable, I might even have one, as...
Hi Andy It might be a personal preference, but I like to assemble the trans and clutch components together on the bench when dealing with any standard shift...
First post here, but I"ve been lurking and learning for the past six months or so. My question concerns the front aluminum bell housing that locates the...
There are 3 types of bellhoungs, the first was for the Cobra, with the rear main seal as part of the engine bell, it was also for the small starter. The second...
After reading Crosley Gang stuff for several years, I'm becoming a participant. I rebuilt a 1948 CC sedan a couple years ago. I am now working on a early 47...
Hello Clell Congrats on the cool cars. You have the truck I'd like to own. Fact is, I looked for a CC sedan an a first choice when I found my 52 SS. As best as...
I too have the tailgate that only goes down so far, to avoid hitting the bumper guards. I have seen some cars that had the bumper guards installed upside down...
Great car Bill. We need to hear more of this one. History? Obviously a very high tech build. I see English, Italian, German and American pieces here. (coil...

Jim, It does seem as though the Crosley of the monthe, the race vintage, could possibly have psrts from RAM (Rome American Manufacturing), which supplied wild...
Since the new CotM is generating so much chatter already I posted a second shot of the engine showing the carbs. You may have to refresh your browser if it...
Hey all, I always thought the quote was: "Why take a battleship when a rowboat will do." At least thats what I always tell everyone Mr. Powell said, who asks...
In the 1960's RAM Engineering made cast oil pans ( the ribbed ones with extra side sump), forged crankshafts and steel billet racing cams sold as complete kit...
On the subject of oil pans, I have two Crosleys with generator engines. The data plate calls for 4 quarts of oil. Either I have the wrong dip sticks or we're...
I believe those carbs are Bing or Amal. They are not any variation of SU's that I've ever seen, and I have owned at least one of just about every SU made. SU...
