U-JOINT, HEAVY DUTY

The favorite of lots of old-time race car mechanics. Note the big diameter bearings and the fact that they are fully enclosed and are not as prone to opening up under pressure like the regular joint. Lots of guys used to weld the upper and lower rings together for extra insurance.

Fits 1928-1948 Ford.

OIL FILTER

One of the original filters that made FRAM famous. This originally came out in the middle thirties when oil filters were very unusual. Then, this exact filter was used by Bugatti (and painted black) and some other exotic car manufacturers as original equipment since it was so good. Race car builders did the same-you'll see this in original pictures of thirties and forties race cars.

Original orange and black with original decal.
