Here's a picture of an s10 tank Bob gave me a while ago mocked up. Can I run exhaust tubing to the upper left corner and through the frame so the...
Bob let me borrow a 9/16 drill bit(thanks) and I finished the brAke pedal. It tended the flex the firewall a little so I'll as two more mounting...
This is gonna be good! Already subscribed.
I've already learned tons. I'm already great at envisioning how the sheet metal will look when I'm done but somehow it never comes out as good as...
I'm liking the new look of the back window. 13 feet of snow!! Now I can't complain about the 4 feet we've gotten in Maine.
I'm just going to drop by lowes or Home Depot on the way home from the meeting.
I made up the mounts but it turns out I don't have a 9/16 drill bit so I'll have to wait on that. [ATTACH] guess that means I might as well do...
Right now I'm mounting the mc and brake pedal. These are the templates for the pedal mount. They'll be reproduced out of 3/16 plate[ATTACH][ATTACH]
I got the linkage figured out and the shifter works pretty good. I was stumped on where to find a spring strong enough for the shifter until I...
What are you guys using for linkages? Do I need heim's joints to keep it from binding? Thanks
"Bench testing" the shifter. [ATTACH]
Here's my dads design which is a lot simpler than mine. [ATTACH]You just move the shifter to the side to change gears.

Loving the build!! I'm building a 49. If I have any questions I know who to ask:). The frame was rusted out on mine so I went with an s10 frame....
What advantages does the oxy/acetylene have for welding over the MIG? I assume it would be a softer weld that would be easier to grind down when...
I just got the welder set up with the c25 and ran a few beads. I love it!!!!! A hundred times easier to use than flux core. Still getting used to...
Looking great. I didn't realize I liked these cars till now.
After calling up the local inspection station to make sure it was legal I started on making the side pipes!!! I'm sure the effect will wear off...
Thanks for the advice. I was actually just given an old dodge cylinder head. It might have a fitting in it for the temp gauge. I think I'll...
[ATTACH] Here is the stock plymouth temp gauge sender(?). I would like to use it but it is way to big to fit in my intake. Is it possible to...
Sorry about not getting to the meeting. I had a bad cold and didn't want to infect everyone:(
Its been a while since I've posted but I've gotten a lot done. I ended up using the fury radiator by tilting it so the bottom sticks out from the...
83% not bad considering I was born in 99.
Here's the seat I traded the broken welder for[ATTACH]
I think I'm going to mount the radiator like this[ATTACH] If it becomes a problem in warmer weather I'll make some shrouds or buy a low profile...
