The Jalopy Journal
Well, GM made them originally in steel, but they all had rumble seats. Superior glass convertibles had trunks like a coupe, other than the obvious...
38 Rear fenders are 1" wider on each side, making a total of 2" wider rear track width. To the original poster, the hood and grill shell /...
My 2028cc VW ran really good with dual HPMX 44's. Nice car!
I bought a brand new Merc PP that bolted right up to my chevy flywheel from Wilcap. But that was over 10 years ago.
I'll give it a whirl, if it needs replacing within 6 mos then I'll think about a bigger anode and whip something up.
^^^^ This. All the cool kids have Fords. I got turned down for the ROC because I have a Chevy.
Just got this on order from the jungle website. $26, 7psi with mag anode. They also have a 16psi and a 13, but the 13 is over double the cost for...
Well, glad I opened this thread because I learned something. I know about sacrificial anodes in marine use, but didn't cross my mind for our...
I'd say 41 Chevys are more popular than a 40, but not as popular as a 46-48 or earlier models. The sedan body style is a draw back. I have more...
I did, and I still do. I have a youtube channel with mostly hotrod/kustom model car builds. https://www.youtube.com/@HayAuto Here is my display...
Yes, the grille in my build comes from that AMT 53 kit. What I was staying is I don’t know if it has an OE manufacturer origin. I have an AMT...
About the time you get all the billet street rod stuff off of it there will be a street rod renaissance and it will be cool again..:p:D
Those look like 49-51 skirts to me.
Oh man don’t ever copy anything I do… I put the HA in hack…:D But if you do… cover the rest of the tire with something, while the cards masked...
I gotta think if it still exists it will surface in the next decade. These guys that have been hiding these cars are passing on and the next of...
Use a good automotive primer to seal the plastic, as the paint could cause “crazing” or even melt it.
I put a 63 Corvette front clip on a 62. I was inspired by a Steve Sanford illustration.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
As a small update: I’m still waiting on one backordered 15x7 for the rear. They said it would ship first week of February but it hasn’t. I’ll post...
Thanks for sharing that story! Dad died 19 years ago so I treasure any stories I hear like that. You made my day!
Here's one of mine from a while back 40 Tudor "The Varmit"...
I'm liking what I'm seeing! Have you chopped something before? You make it look so easy, and I know it's not easy. I would really like to build...
Jeff that show historically hasn’t had much cool stuff. Back around 2008 ish for a few years they had a parking area off to the side called the...
[ATTACH] Unless the 39 box is plumb wore out, no need to change. Unless you want that overdrive 5th. I’d run 70-75 all day long with a 39 box and...
Well dang, just paid retail last year for Diamondback Auburns. Great tire though, no complaints. Unless Coker gives me a set I won’t be changing...
Jimmie is one of the most traditional builders on YouTube. He’s very talented!
I need another sedan, a coupe with 5 kids ain’t cutting it.
Testing out my first 3D printed kit. Just a body, I’ve got to scratch build everything else. 47 Cad Sedanette[ATTACH]
What are the dates?
It’s stands to reason that perhaps a solid shaft would be more sturdy? You need that hole to run the ground wire for the horn, how are people...
It’s pretty common for people to call 40 Standards 39s. I had 39 headlights in my 40 Standard sedan and a guy argued with me about it! This car...
