Hey PGH, where'd you get those rear quarter panels?
Yeah....You must be right. I totally forgot that Carbon and iron "Fe" are not two different elements. Check a periodic table. If I remember...
Carbon doesn't contain iron...*scratches head*
Stainless only means that it contains about 10.5% Chromium. Your higher quality stainless steels have a good nickel content, which in turn,...
It's amazing how this thread gets 6 pages of bullshit, but some actual tech threads might get three replies. I thought we were here to talk about...
6200rpm, 1:1 4th gear, 4.62:1 final gear, 26.5" tire = 105.716mph
I don't think the additional X crossmembers were specific to convertibles. My '51 more-door has that type of frame. Drive shaft runs right through it.
Oh shit. Somebody brought the Mike Ness thing back to life. Here we go... As far as the rockstar thing...I don't get it. It's not like it's a...
Using flamedabone's calc, if you're doing 100mph at 1320, you need to jump to 4.89's. Seems a little high, but the right way to do it is an...
Yup. You won't be running down the highway at 2K with 4.11:1 final gears and a 1:1 4th ratio. I'll setup a calc for you, unless somebody else...
Need shift points and trans gear ratios to calculate the whole quarter mile. Also need to know what kinda elapsed time your looking for.
Maybe so. I guess I didn't get the memo on who's buddy's with who or whatever "McPhail sucks" is supposed to translate to. I just have respect for...
And opinions are like assholes...if you don't keep yours to yourself, you might as well take one up the ass. Show us something that you've built...
Now, I'm confused....in one of your previous posts, you state that you have a Chassis Engineering front-end....so why do you want to replace it?
Is it just me, or did this forum get weird?? I haven't logged on in a while....what an off night. *shakes head* Anything you want to fit up,...
Hey ratrod. It's in issue number 13, because it's lucky, and it's Ol' Skool. Have you tried the Beatnik's website for photos? Sometimes, it's just...
Alright...I'll bite, but I'm going to bed after this. 1950 Fleetline - $1500 w/o a power-plant 350/350 - Depends on what you really...
Are you asking what it's gonna cost to build or buy??
It's Chevy Chase. Gotta be...:D
My ol' lady just bought herself a '59 Edsel for her first project. Pretty solid, yet far enough gone that she'll have to learn every aspect of...
Have you tried the search function?? There's a lot of info on model A frames on here...
I'm sure this could have been communicated somewhere along the way. Fuck it. I'll buy from Coker. Seems like they always have their shit together.
Hey LowBrow, You get your tires yet? How do they look?
That's a STAND-UP thing to do!! Bubba, thanks for making things good with such a good friend of mine. I look forward to dealing with you in the...
Hero?? Hmm...well, I wouldn't refer to myself as such. Shouldn't you be reading about heros in your comic books?? Nobody's hiding bro. I'm easy to...
aaaaaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!! But, but....it's supposed to be Ol' sKOoL!! I've never seen any Ol' sKOoL limos "kustomized" with a K!
Meditation retreat with myspace, huh?? He just approved me as a friend last night. What a crock....If he has time to get on myspace, he has time...
Any one?? Any one? Bueller? I was looking forward to dealing with this guy as well, but if he's not good on his word, or at least communicating...
Daggers over swords for tight work, maybe even an Xcaliber. Like the above mentioned, stiff arm it vertically, roll the brush handle in the...
1. Purchase paint & brush 2. Open paint can 3. Dip brush in paint 4. Apply paint to surface 5. Sand that shit back down and buy a spray setup....
