I have a '49 chopped, bagged Ford that was nicely done from a body standpoint but the rest of it was a mess. Rebuilt 88 merc is fine, and T5 tranny okay, but the brakes, fuel system, wiring, exhaust, old computer were all just FUBAR. A guy worked on it for years. I finally hauled it to a muffler shop, had smitty's and whole new system installed, then found Tallant's. They tore out the crappy brake system, did a whole new one. Then car wouldn't run for more than a couple blocks--took it back to Tallant's. Short version: runs great. Carb replaced efi, tore out computer, electr. fuel pump, new intake, etc--they know what they're doing. TEN stars!
