The Jalopy Journal
I love both cars. I obviously am partial to the Riv. But I like the interior of the T-bird better.
Check out this blasphemous Ford sales video from 1963. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D61mG5xD8HY As a Riviera owner I thought it was good. Sorry...
Mine looked a little down in the ass After I dropped it. It sat level but the wheel openings aren't level with each other. I put a pair of coil...
I'm planning my virgin run at the Lonestar round-up. As of now it's my family and one other couple. May turn into a total of 5 couples going. What...
I'll give $13 and a cold beer for the GMC sign. :D
Ryan, I've had issues with vibration in my Riv. It's probably a u-joint. Hell there are only 5 to replace. I had to replace the rear u-joint in...
Wow!!! I'm the big winner. Very cool. Both of the issues I mentioned are from past experiences with mine. Ryan wait until you try to get the A/C...
I use Evaporust on old tools. It's the only thing at Harbor Freight that is worth buying.
Too long. I like the tests with pictures.
Headlight motor on the '65 takes a shit. And Ryan gets bloody knuckles trying to yank the arms away from the dead ass motor to manually open the...
I could go for the Riv Journal!!!!!!!!!!!! But I'd settle for a new HAMB t-shirt that incorporates a Buick tri-shield logo. hint hint. Go ahead...
Put a 1/4" wheel spacer on. One that has several holes like this. [IMG]
Cool. Glad you found one. I can't wait to see all the pics.
65Riviera has you lined out on the seal in the column. Heat comes in bad around the shifter linkage boot as well. Check this site out for more Riv...
I would like to get some info on the maker and the size of the wire wheels on this car at the Hamb drags Sat. [IMG] Thanks, Bill
That video was great!!! I can't wait to see more.
Ryan, I'm diggin your new obsession with Rivs. One of my favorite cars as well. Here is a shot of mine. [IMG]
Great pics. I opened this more because I saw the words hot and beaver in the title.
I've sold my first car a total of 4 times. It found it's way back three times. I think it's gone for good now.

I talked with the owner of the "farm truck". He says "It's too heavy to be fast". I ask what will it run in the 1/4. His wife says "It has ran...
Thanks for the info. Any cool shop open houses??
Heading out to Salina for the Lead Sled Spectacular. It's my first time going out. Other than the show, the drags and getting a Cozy In burger....
We'll be out Friday morn.
Any tool from harbor freight. It might work now. But it won't for long.
I only run one YOM plate on my Buick. In the state of MO. New plates you need front and back. YOM just back.
I try to buy what I can from Rock Auto. Then you don't deal with the counter folk. Old stuff is kinda tuff on there though.
I was thrilled I found it. I was also kind of proud of myself. I sold about $400 worth of shit. And only bought about $10 worth. Usually it's the...
I went to the local flea market to sell some stuff. I always seem to walk around and find a few treasures. This was my score today. For $3 I might...
