The Jalopy Journal
Any one else have any more pictures or facts?
Holy shit. That is unbelievable! Some 1/1 builds don't touch the skill that this guy shows in a little car build.
That thing is going to be super bad. I really like that you are posting a build thread for a fiberglass car. I have been wondering how you would...
Guess who just bought a 1955 and 1956 Hot Rod Magazine? This guy.
It is... dun, Dun, DUUNNN!!! My father's Oldsmobile. Seriously though, nice car.
Oh my god that is gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.
The Handyman, that is what it is called.
Whats going on with the Rodder Journal feature? Super cool that you brought your baby home in the Kaiser.
Man, a Vhevy? I don't know, but they have to be rare. Seriously, Nomad, Ranch Wagon (something like that), and there is one more that is...
Okay, so there is a lead. Now, does anyone have any pictures or scans of the 1956 Hot Rod Magazine, or do you have it and care to share some scans...
Psh.. Bitch, that's the gangsta helmet. :D Cool box build though. Where did you get the design of the brakes from?
You could hold out for $700, but that could take some time. Now if you could find a head to go with it, you would be able to sell it for quite a...
A good way to paint wire wheels is a setup that an old auto body guy showed me. What you do is... attached picture. Okay, so you build a spinning...
From what I can tell it is still raced by Ed's son. But yeah, it really fell off the radar. Thank you by the way for checking up on it. That...
I can't, I have one of the SBC but none of the flathead. Does anyone on here have any info on the flathead?
Killer ride, you are you coming down for Lone Star?
Nobody knows if it ran a nitro flatty?
Does anyone know if this car ran nitro with the flathead? I have been a student of this car for a while but I can never find that out.
Yeah, it really does. There are a ton more pictures including a really blurry one with Wally Parks in it which I really like... here it is. Now...
I know, right? I would be like "hey, I gotta cut this frame up," And someone says, "Well lets find a plasma cutter," and I would be all like "Nah,...
The Glass Slipper, created in 1954 by Ed Cortopassi and Doug Butler was the first dragster with a streamlined body and enclosed body. It had an...
That makes more sense than what I was thinking. I was thinking that it might be a mirror mount, but I really couldn't tell.
does anyone have a picture of the car that was selling originally? Just wondering?
I am not even going to lie, I kind of like it more that it doesn't run. It is one of the most intricate sculptures out there. So how long did it...
I like people like you, we get it. Sure some of the stuff we say is just thinking out loud, and it doesn't mean that we are going to do it today,...
Well it isn't a ford. The body line is too intricate, now what is that thing on the front? It it separate or part of the body line?
Good that your house didn't get hit. Now, how is the progress coming along? I thought you finished that motor, but now I cannot wait to see what...
I have been blocked with my drawing stuff so I decided to do this... Hope you like it.
That is AWESOME! There are a couple other things like Jigger, love your's ToddJ, nice Spoggie, I love that picture, you hand painted it?
I like it. Clean, simple, and very well pulled off.
