Purple is a great color for a custom. Purple was always considered the color of royalty. I think everyone else has already covered all the best...
I voted drip rails, but since you want to keep a smooth racey look, why not just form a "drip rail" from 1/4" rod that would follow the shape of...
Kustom7777, I think you have automotive a.d.d. Just finish the car already!
Welcome from another Nor-Cal H.A.M.B.er.
I prefer front, so in the winter when I wear my jacket, it can still be seen. Although a small logo on the front with the design on the back is...
Welcome from another Nor-Cal H.A.M.B.er. I believe it's relatively simple to adapt a T-5 to your motor. A quick google search should turn up some...
X2 for the '50 Pontiac tails, they look great on these trucks.
I've never understood the need for a fancy timing cover. By the time you get the water pump, and harmonic balancer on you can hardly see it...
The intake has a flat spot to be drilled for the oil fill tube. Hole saw, and a fill tube, and five minutes later, problem solved.
To say I am working on a tight budget would be an understatement. A while back I bought a 23" swan neck Gennie shifter, from Alex, for my '29...

Ian, hope you don't mind me adding pics to this thread. I was just going to start my own when I saw this one. Be fore warned, I am no...
I bought a 23" swan neck shifter from Alex a while back. It was intended for my Hot Rod project, but is now going in my daily driver. I sure could...
I'll be there Thursday setting up with the Standley Bros. black '36. Stop by and say hi.
I hope there's still some room left in the book for this one if it's not already in there. Seems to fit the bill somewhat for what you were...
You want to split the manifold, just splitting the exhaust won't do much. Splitting the exhaust 2/4 gives it a different exhaust note, like a...
Straight pipes are the only way to go on a six. The only way you're really going to get a great sound out of it is with a split manifold though,...
That's a crappy position to be in , but if I were in your shoes, here's what I'd probably do. Sounds like you've got a solid platform with the...
Not personally responsible, I did have a small hand in it, but I want to make sure to give credit where credit is due. A friend of mine is...
We were there setting up on Wed. night, ground level building A, right in front of the doors, and at the foot of the stairs. Judging by some of...
I was there for three days in a row, and do not remember seeing that car. I recognize every other car around it, but not that one, that says...
I'm up for meetin' some people. The show has actually gotten a lot better under new ownership. Seems like fewer, but higher quality cars. I've...
I was going to suggest the Brockmans, or take a look at Porter mufflers. They're a steel pack, and sound great, they've also got a bunch of sound...
I think you've come to wrong place for help.
Puttin' this back to the top to see if anyone has a solution yet. I'm wanting to put a Mustang type tank under the bed in my '64 Chevy pickup, to...
I sold my '97 Toyota Tacoma, and bought this a couple weeks ago to be my new daily. Crazy? Possibly. 250/3spd. It's apart in the garage right now...
Well, that's good enough for me. Thanks, guys.
LowFat48, thanks for that link, that's what I was looking for. I believe we have identified the block, but the head definetely does not have an...
I just bought a '64 Chevy truck with what the guy said was a 250/6. I haven't been able to find any real info on the six motors that answers my...
