If you can find a pair, the buckets out of an early 70's Opal GT are comfortable riding seats. Look nice too.
Back to Wally World. Check out non skid shower mats. They have white in 21" X 21" squares.
Blowby had the same idea that I had. Check your local carpet store. Rubber floor runners can be gotten in white. They may have some offcuts big...
Wally World has these. http://guide.alibaba.com/shop/kraco-best-rubber-floor-mat-set-clear_12015021.html (Just watch out for stampeeding Wally...
Tho I'm a Ford guy myself, if I were building from the ground up, if given the choice I'd have to go with the Essex, just to be different. Of all...
Back when Noah was just a pup and starting to build his boat, I was there to teach him how to forge spikes to hold it all together. At least I...
KMS's picture is too blurry when blown up to make out the country of manufacture, but it looks exactly like a Chinese grinder sitting on my bench....
Welcome to the funny farm Steve. That's one sweet looking roadster ya got.
Mine looked a lot cleaner when it arrived at its new home. Now it's sitting on jack stands thru the winter months, covered in dust, waiting for...
Welcome aboard from another old goat.
Mowed a lot of lawns and delivered a lot of papers. At 14 years old I bought an early 28 Ford sport coupe. Paid $85.00 for it. I learned to drive...
Let's not forget banger headers. Don't have a pic with the engine out of the car. They tie into a 3" SS pipe that runs the length of the car,...
You put a pile of money into making that engine go fast & look purdy, and you're gonna go & hide it under sheet metal ? I'll take looks over a...
Now that's real old school. Hand brake & fuel pressure pump hanging outside. I'm digging those big old brass headlights. Wish there were more pics.
Another vote for Powder coat.
Could be with a little work. Put tab A into slot B, etc, etc, etc.
With the brake lever on the left, it's early 28. If you're rodding it, save all of the emergency brake parts. They're pure gold. If the engine...
A lot depends on how much value you put on your hotrod. Is it worth paying a little extra to have it shipped in an enclosed trailer ? Would you...
Is your 31 being registered as a 31, or a special build ? If registered as a 31, only 1 tail light should be required. Any more than that would be...
Just an idea of what 39's in the fenders would look like.000_2075 by Jakesrocks posted Jul 21, 2014 at 10:33 AM
Gotta love the tall T's, weather street rod or gasser.
I vote for wires too. But then I'm biased.
I got to watch the Speed Sport roadster run a couple times at the old Colton drag strip back in the 50's. That's a sound that will go to my grave...
It's a little thing called electrolytic action causing corrosion between dis similar metals. In this case likely lead battery posts and steel...
Just an old goat in his 70's, reliving his high school years with a warmed up banger.
Firestone Bias Ply 7.00 - 16 rears & 5.50 -16 fronts on Kelsey wires, with 4" dropped axle. 000_2074 by Jakesrocks posted Jul 21, 2014 at 10:33 AM
Not much in N.E. South Dakota. Here's a link to Aberdeen's one and only car & bike show. http://www.aberdeendowntown.org/index.aspx?NID=194...
I'd be more worried about electrolytic action eating the copper from the inside out. Use some sort of a zinc piece in your cooling system to do...
Rusychevy, just an idea. On a scrap painted with the same white you used on your upholstery, try wiping it down with some very strong coffee. (The...
I see a lot of good sheet metal there. Front fenders look very usable. As Squirrel said, the spare frame isn't T.
