Oh hell yeah!
As long as you're worried about how straight your body is, paint it a semi-gloss white, maybe a little on the silver side, but definitely whitish....
Check out this site. You can look at factory colors for damn near anything for damn near any year. That'll give you a good idea of what was...
And makes something like a 268...
The 300 cid is cast iron though. Thus, heavier and without the polished-look opportunity...
I'm not a huge fan of flat black, but that is really HOT!:eek:
Yeah, black's a pain in the ass, but mmm mmm isn't it tasty...
I posted this thread a couple weeks ago, and it's got a decent pic of a 60 Bonneville 4 door hardtop taken on the day it was bought in 1960....
Yep, antenna's in the right place. There should be a know inside the car in the same place so you can rotate the antenna around for the best...
Shiny black. No flames.
It was a big show. And it's a damn good one too! I went to the Grand National Roadster Show last year, and to be honest, it's surprisingly...
Thanks for the pics. When did you take the pics? I was there Sunday morning, and I don't remember a couple of those cars. I wonder if a couple...
Yeah, it ain't trad or vintage, but I second this vote. It should be able to handle both parameters.
The green one with the white painted trim stripe is the Plymouth Explorer. It was one of Exner's designs built by Ghia. I've seen it in person...
Free beer?! :eek:
I'm ready, and I'll be there! Probably saturday. No car (yet). Is there going to be a place where the HAMBers are going to be a la Billetproof?
Thanks for the ideas, guys. This car has had an oil pressure guage issue before, so it would be prudent to hook up a manual guage just to make...
It's happening without hard cornering or braking. If I take a corner anywhere near the Vette's potential, the oil pressure briefly drops to zero...
I've got a little problem with my daily driver, which, alas, is not a traditional hot rod. But this is the only board I'm a member of and there's...
As for your 1k rental thoughts. I live in Menlo Park (on the peninsula). I have a car port and additional off street parking should I need, a...
Whoops! The pics are backwards, but you guys should get the idea.
My dad just got a slide scanner and started scanning a bunch of old pics from his childhood. I thought I'd share a couple. All were taken in...
If you live in Boston, SF won't be shocking. If people think traffic is bad here, at least the effing streets are on a grid, so shit is...
I remember seeing an old aluminum finned head for a straight 8 poncho a couple ago for sale. So there were (are) some speed parts for them...
If you've never been to Yosemite, it's absolutely worth it. It makes you realize our little man-made machines don't amount to shit when compared...
93-96 Caddy Fleetwoods have mini skirts. About 2" tall that either come off or swing up to help get the rear wheel off.
As rusty as that floor is, you're inviting a lot of structural problems if you cut the roof off. But what the hell!
With the way that floor is, yeah, it ain't worth fixing. On the other hand it's a shame to lose a complete (kind of) car. But probably the best...
Got ya. I wasn't thinking cinematically. And working at Google ain't nothin'. Damn near anybody can, and with the way they hire and fire,...
Yeah I saw it several years ago. It is magnificent. Maybe I just didn't remember the text...
