    I was reading the thread "What did you do with your car today" (the first thread got closed) :rolleyes: and I thought what about a thread for what you bought for your car today. It can be for the hot rod/custom you're driving now or a project car you're working on now, or heck even parts you're thinking about using on car, your project car, or even a future project.

    Driver's door gl*** for my 50 Buick that I broke over the weekend slamming it too hard... :oops:
     
  9. Bought a complete detail on the O/T DD because a big part of me won't do it, but the other part of me likes a clean car.
     
  10. Didn't buy, but a friend dropped off a set of Motor Wheel Spyders, that I owned at one time, gave to him and he used on his car. Been storing them forever, and asked if I'd like them back. Going to use on my 56 Nomad.

    Got a rear view mirror for my Roadster. Should be technically street legal now. At least according to Georgia’s lenient rules.

    Here is the depth of my purchasing decision today:

    Should I pay $20 for a Speedway light switch, or use the bat-handle switch that I already have?

    They look great but are no performance head, for that price you could get the AFR enforcers that would out perform them.

    Sometimes it’s “the look” that’s wanted.
