The Jalopy Journal
I was 14, in 1959 I sold my bike to buy a chopped and channeled Model A coupe. It had a flathead in it. I never got it on the road and sold it...
I remember reading that Pinto wagon roof will work. That is if they all are not all part of the earth by now.
I did this dash for my 32 five window using a abrasive round in my drill press. It's stainless and stays very fresh looking. [ATTACH]
Nice photos. Thanks for posting.
Wow what a time capsule. I would do just what you are planning to do with it.
Looks good I will have to try that on my 58 F100.
Looks great. I love the white pipeing.
Lucky for sure, great start.
The two tone broken up that way looks great. I like the colors too.
Tailpipes look 100% better.
I loved following the build on your coupe. This will surely be a watched thread.
Very nice pictures, thank you.
I have been able to melt the solder out of the button and solder it on the new wire.
Your photos are always top quality. You have a very good eye. Thanks.
Looks great I love the color.
I have a set like that in my garage that are now only good for decoration. It's what Rusty O' Toole said. I had them on my car and when you apply...
I have a set on an engine in the garage just for looks. The only think I can think of it might have been done for an offset generator bracket to...
I used the stock ammeter on my 50 ford with a early GM one wire alternator. I think it might only be 37 amp output. If you run the output wire...
Thanks for the coverage. There is a Race Boat Regatta at the Clayton N.Y. antique boat museum every other year for the folks that live back east....
Yes it does. The owner just moved to Florida from westeren New York state.
I took pictures of that car in the 80's at the NSRA nats east in York PA. I think it was a maroon color. I would have to dig for the pictures to...
Great coverage. I love the warmth of the pictures. Makes the event more real.
I put the stainless and the channel in first on my 50. It was a few years ago but I think I had to loosen up the lower mount for the vent window...
The lighter was in the dash to the right of the choke.
WOW, a work of art. Glad you are showing us now. Too bad it will all be covered up one day.
I have loved that headliner material sense I had a 56 Ford. I also put it in my 50. It is a off white color. Your car is turning out very nice.
It looks like a shortened piece of rear trim from the other side placed on the door.
I am a fan of cardboard myself. I like the kind that is coated on one side with plastic. Makes it easy to slide on.
Yes they did make one. I had one about 20 year ago and I sold it because I didn't know what it was for. The guy that bought it from me told me...
Never would have thought it could be done. Can't wait to see the rest of the build.
