The Jalopy Journal
I'm not that far away from you...... Maybe the car could "disappear"? I've got lots of room and that looks fun.
This is one of those times when something really bad happens and you can still say you were very lucky. I always get nervous working under a car...
I'm about to swap a small block chevy for my six banger. It kind of feels dirty to put the small block in a car since it's so over done, but if...
If you can get ahold of him, I would tell him you'll give him $500 ( or whatever you think) for the car or drag it to his house. His choice but...
First off, I'll admit that I didn't read all the posts. Usually I don't do that but with the topic I figured that I could comment on it without...
Awesome! I'm very glad for both of you. I know my daughter is the only thing more important to me than cars and guns. As for the original...
I've seen some Maaco paint jobs that weren't too bad for a beater with a heater. I've seen some where the car wasn't washed before painted....
Very cool car you lucky bastard! Enjoy. You've got lots of fun ahead of you.
Awesome thread. I've got to get off my ass and get my '54 on the road!! I've got some parts on the way and I'm shopping for an old POS with an...
Looks awesome. Makes me feel bad about what's gotten done on my '54 in the last year..... Next to nothing. Pennies are being saved and parts are...
The problem with bumpers is having an oven to put something the size of a bumper in! I've thought about making a "oven" with actual oven...
All I can say about those cars is WOW!! Some very cool finds. I'm not even going to try and single one of them out. They are all very cool.
I love this thread. So many awesome cars!
If the budget is an issue you might want to price both builds to help decide. Other than that, they are both very cool and make it a completely...
That thing is bad to the bone! Love it and have thought about something like that for over the bar in my house. I never thought about all the...
If the dude you saw out there sees this thread, he's going to keep his mouth shut and stay out of this. Unless he's into that sort of thing.
That looks like a good enough reason to drive all the way over there! Damn those look good.
Looking awesome!
Nothing to drive but I'll be there. Going to have to stop at K-Mart and get some rain gear for my daughter though....
These things are just cool!!
I can't wait to get there Saturday. My daughter on the other hand hates these things. She says I talk to people too much!
Can't believe I missed this thread. AWESOME!! Loved the 70's and start of the 80's. The cars, the hot pants, the music, all three channels...
Click the link. Then click the links that you find there. He cleans them up and makes plaster castings from actual engines that get pulled from...
Wow! I would like a nailhead and a flathead. I even know where I would put them ( since I've wanted to get the real think for display in the...
You might own them for quite a while. Nice to see the stuff saved, but you better figure that the money is gone. Then as long as you have...
NAILHEAD!!! Old engine that came to be in '53. Great torque, good power. A 425 would have the torque to haul anything you wanted.
You're probably right. With the newer cars guys change a chip, put a cold air intake on it, have exhaust put on her and say the hot rodded it....
Wow!!
No pictures, you need to come see it. I don't live near any of the cars I look at!!!
Both of my granddads were in the Navy and never would talk about the war either. I don't suppose there were a ton of happy memories associated...
