I agree, but maybe he lives that way by choice. Some people have an unusual sense of what is normal and comfortable to them.
I wonder if that Vette is an original big block car? He may have bought it in 1975, when you couldn't give a big block car away. Back in the...
I find some of the comments funny. Many of them say that the owner is a crazy, nutcase hoarder who has no intention of ever selling. Maybe so,...
Well put! I'll put the suspension together and take it back apart dozens of times to get it where I want it. I've had rear axle housings...
Sparkswillfly- That Model A sedan is freakin' bitchin!
I had a few cool cars when I was in the service, and on a few, I took it in the shorts because I had the cars torn down for a rebuild and got an...
To a degree, I can agree with the statement about lowered cars being a regional thing, but I don't think that it's a universal mind-set. I was...
You can adjust the oxygen and acetelyne knobs on the torch to make that thing do just about anything you need. You can set the flame cone to make...
My bumper is really tight, also. I'm doing a lot of bed work right now, and my bed is not in it's exact position. When I get the bed bolted down...
I did some work on the spare tire mount yesterday. I wanted to use the factory spare tire mount location, and now that the bed floor is raised, I...
Nailed it! You turned a beater into the coolest truck around with just an "altitude adjustment" and a new pair of shoes.
I'm curious how far north that car went when they were racing it. My uncles had a D/Gas '55 Chevy (H&H Racing) that was out of Louisville and...
With a 4" wide wheel on the Galaxie, (which has large inner wheel wells) I think the turning will probably be OK. On most '60s cars, I have found...
Tires, wheels, and stance are everything. Period. I'd rather see the right wheels, tires, and stance on a rough unpainted car than to see a...
Eric- First of all, thanks for the tip on the sale at Brother's. I had been looking around for a set, even on ebay, and with shipping they would...
It's been awhile since I posted, and I was hesitant to post any pictures of what I've been doing because I wanted to complete some of it first,...
I really like that alot. It's really "modernizes" the look, for lack of a better word. You're right, it does give it a Model A look. I've never...
What an AMAZING save! I'm blown away. I love seeing cars come back from the dead. That's what this hobby is all about.
Your part is definitely uncommon, haven't seen hardly any of those. If you're doing a full restoration and originality/accuracy is critical, then...
I've had 400 small blocks out here in the desert of Southern California, where it regularly stays over 100 degrees for weeks and weeks, and I have...
I like Model Ts because lots of people have considered them to be out of style and uncool. All the more reason to build one, if you ask me....
Without question, Phill Whetstone. He's a fellow HAMBr too, his screenname is philly the greek. Check out his website and click the "Wood Grain"...
Forgot you owned it? Yeah, right...................
chevy57dude- How have you been? I was just wondering the other day how your '57 was coming along. I was looking through some of my old pictures...
Without question. With the $5000, you could buy a solid, running, driving truck that the Association wouldn't even bat an eye at. Your '61...
The Moonlighter will be in The Rodders Journal!! Perfect! Steve Coonan is a excellent photographer. He's been know to photograph for hours and...
Cool truck. A V-8, Custom Cab and A/C is a great deal for $950. What's the deal with the grille guards? There's a real love of those things on...
Did you check out www.67-72chevytrucks.com? Here's a link to the '60-'66 section. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/forumdisplay.php?f=6 As I...
That Nova was the car that got me totally hooked on Pro Street. To me, it was the first "serious" Pro Street car, and it's still my all-time...
Wow! Nice truck! I love the '60-'66 Chevy trucks. You've definitely got "The Eye", my friend! The stance on your truck(s) is perfect.
