Hobby Cars Get Running With New Crate Engines
By William Richardson
Women and men who love cars take their hobby seriously, and this means many hours in their garages rebuilding an antique to its former glory. This is a laborious process for many, but others go ahead and place new parts in an old shell. These rebuilds require the mechanic to get his or her hands on either a brand new or fully restored crate engines.
Using original parts is often the preference when one is rebuilding a vehicle, and this does help to maintain the value of an antique automobile. However, this is simply not always possible, as many parts are not longer being manufactured. Sometimes a mechanic is able to fabricate the part, or hire someone to do so, but some parts are simply too complex for this process to be successful.
Purchasing such an engine from the manufacturer guarantees that it will run, even before it is installed. Just put the appropriate fluids where they belong, give it a little gas, and you can get the engine to run. This makes it easy whether the mechanic is doing a rebuild on an antique car, or they are simply giving a whole new life to the automobile they have been driving for many years already.
Some mechanics have hobby cars because they are into amateur street racing. They can place a much more powerful engine into a smaller car, or even a vehicle that is traditionally thought of as a family car. Drag racing enthusiasts love these motors for that very reason, and this kind of illegal racing has been going on for a very long time.
Such an engine generally carries a three-year, or 100,000 mile guarantee. This is important for one who has spent vast sums rebuilding a car, and probably has much more spending to do before he or she is finished. The cost of a rebuild has many aspects, and the engine is only one small part to the very costly whole when turning an old car into a new one.
Having the exterior of the vehicle done is possibly the most laborious part of the entire process. Some mechanics are not able to get this work done in their own garages, as it requires a great deal of cutting and welding as well as bonding, sanding, and painting. Many body shops only do insurance work or minor repairs, so the hobbyist will need to find the right shop for what he is working on.
Along with the engine, one must secure a working transmission to go with it. In many rebuilds, the person who intends to drive the automobile will have a preference regarding automatic or manual transmission. It is important that the transmission and engine work together, and many people choose to buy the transmission from the same merchant that provided the motor.
Once the exterior has been sanded, bonded, welded, and the paint is complete, installation of all new moving parts should be a fairly easy process. However, there is the entire interior of a vehicle that still needs to be addressed. There need to be new seats and side panels, as well as windows, windshield, and chromed details such as the bumpers and automobile insignia to address.
