I am also putting together a 50's-60's style full fendered coupe, mine a '29. Too bad I didn't have the nuts to ask a few questions here several...

We moved to Wilmington a little over 4 years ago. That guy from Pittsburgh that has that little blue pickup came by here in a great big "man's...
Hey, JJ, I LOVE your new car!! I also like the idea of keeping on a budget to allow for some of the other stuff going on in your life, and...
Feeling like a jerk tonight. My wife got a note from the Customer Service Department at Dennys Drive shaft while I was out of town last week and...

Not to be picky, (and I could be wrong,) but are those radial tires on the rear? The fronts definitely look like bias ply. I wasnt aware of being...

Just read the whole thread. Sad, really. Ive been in your shoes since I was sixteen, and that was over fifty years ago. I am reminded of my own...
I'm stunned. Both me and a friend have bought cars from Larry when I was in FL several years back. I hadn't heard anything about his passing. He...
Guy I know, shop truck.
How about too dumb to figure it out??
Well, the good news was I went to two shows today. The not so good? Auto Fair, Kenely, NC was not the best. First, it cost $10 each to get in, and...
