The Jalopy Journal
its the cars and coffee event just a simple hangout for a couple hours, happens every Saturday.
Should come on down to Sherwood on Saturday morning for a shakedown run, lol. Im planning on going with some of the C10 group. Need to burn some...
They might work but I could see an issue as the dodge bumpers wrap around then ends of the car where the stock f1 bumper is straight across. Could...
your club always puts on a great show at the carousel, always try and go every year. Had fun last year with the 61 and 55 there.,
I’m up to the west of Portland but have family down near Roseburg. That area of Douglas County is full of hot rods and a big car scene. Medford is...
With 59 headlights maybe should then narrow a 59 Chevy bumper for the front vs the stock unit.
Probably in the ballpark of a assembled 348/409 Chevy head, those are massive chunks of iron.
as @Moriarity said 59 units were a good go to source to do either horizontal or canted quads. Other options for canted quads are 58 Lincoln units...
you just never know when you will get the call. Had that happen with our 61 impala and Taboo actually. On the impala, grandparents sold the car...
our 55 is just currently waiting for the nice weather to return to go out and cruise. [ATTACH]
I always like the Laguna S-3 cars, mainly because they made such good looking stock cars. [IMG] [IMG]
that was my moms first car, it was V8 version. Those cars had master cylinder problems that would cause the brake to go out. My mom's car had that...
yeah its going to be interesting to see how the car is restored. I've always loved the car (not as much as the 58 Impala in the movie) but have...
While I dont know the sizes but some ideas that might work: 40s-60s Motorcycle? Like a Harley, Indian, or something, they usually had 2 bolt...
well my grandfather and I have almost had what you layout here, lol. My 33 ford has a SBC and we had a 34 5 window with a 348 W motor shoved in...
They use other tires for a base as well, Im looking at the one line that uses radial t/a's for our 61 Impala. I have redlines from them using...
A specific top 3 would be a 55 Chevy 2 door (sedan, hardtop, or drop top), 61 Impala hardtop/bubbletop, 58 Impala hardtop. Although ask me...
That 63 is about what the Douglas Country Sheriff's had as patrol cars. In 64 my grandparents (CJ) had a brand new 64 Impala that broke a rear...
We moan and groan while neck deep into the task we didnt have to take, but at the end of the day once its complete and looking at it with some...
Im still on the "young" scale at 32, but I have grown up in and around hot rods, customs and muscle cars as I went everywhere with my grandparents...
I always wanted to see one of their 32 pickup/commercial grille shells as they did list a correct 1 piece setup like the originals. I wish they...
I am a huge fan of the L79 cam as well for a mild build where you want to stay hydraulic lifters. I currently have a true GM one in my 68 C10 with...
That is also what I heard as well.
Nothing but blues and teal in the garage. 33 pickup is teal (can be blue or green depending on what the camera and light) 55 Chevy is blue/white...
The bullet nosed one I think is 52 Ford, its missing the other side piece, then the grille with the V is a 55 Ford Meteor (Canadian Ford) piece
This one is just simply ugly for one feature this trim level/body style offered. The rest of the line up is beautiful to me, but this one trim...
the hardtops were also completely different. 55's is almost a copy/paste of a 54 Ford hardtop then in 56 Ford just used the same top as a Mercury,...
My grandfathers first 2 cars he ever owned had to have the rake. 55 Ford was what he had at 16, then right out of high school ordered the 61...
Wheels, tires and stance can make or break a car as my grandpa has always said. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
So I measured the bumper today and its 47 inches so a stock 59 is 50 inches wide.
