The Jalopy Journal
I've saved a few from ending up as bullet backstop from a buddy that wanted to attempt to recover a specialty .44 defense round to see what it...
Thanks all. Guess I'll make use of some of the down time at work due to the snow and make some calls for some quotes on sonic testing. And...
Hey all, I know there is no definitive answer sort of having the bores sonic tested but looking for guesses based upon past experiences....
Thanks for the replies. May put it in the "to be blasted" pile and see how it turns out. I'm kind of figuring I've been overthinking that spot a...
I'm going through attempting to clean out and consolidate. Never run a standard shift and any auto trans case issues I've ever had have been in...
Can't say anything about the Cali version but I did go through the same thing with the Md.DMV. OT car,clerical error was on the signed ancient...
Still living with my parents at the time,in my late teens. Was cutting the front lawn. Two old guys pull up in a Sanford & Sons pickup and say...
I've always tried to make a buck where I could,break even where possible,take a loss if I know I overpaid,consider trade if equitable,or just...
When asked in person I usually stay vague and say either utility worker or in communications. Avoids having to hear complaints or horror stories...
I don't know man,this is one of the few thread titles I'd say is misleading yet in a good way. No matter what way you decide to go that car seems...
I always wanted to do a Chevy 427/435 with a 12 bolt rear with body colored steelies in a 64-67 no option GTO. The idea ruffled feathers in the...
I've been guilty of procrastinating more than once in my life. So far it's served me better than being impulsive. From buying over priced cool...
This thread popping back up got me to thinking about this one. Posted before asking a few questions about it. Took the wife's bathroom scale to...
I think last time I posted about Carlisle it was to say it was my father,myself,and my youngest that went and had that time together. My...
With the punched out grill and my lack of knowledge of the differences between the 39 and 40 that was probably the car. My mind gravitated to it...
I saw a 40 Ford hotrod black primer with blue flames that I believe a poster on here owns but couldn't put a face with the car. Saw about 815 AM...
Thanks to all that have replied. I picked these up as part of a collapsed shed / estate clean out a few years back and knew what they were but...
Based upon 2 pics prior to sandblasting can anyone ID which years these rims are intended for ? Followed the link and read the rim info but not...
Its hard to judge actual intent through an internet post . Although its safe to a assume with the admission the car most likely wouldn't be kept...
Suppose it's possible this hardware is for something else but nothing else I can think of. My only basis of comparison is mid 60s Chevy or more...
Figuring this is probably a simple ID but I haven't been able to find pics of these parts to determine their application. Searches come back with...
Not sure how old these are but pretty sure they were made before my time. Would be curious to hear if they were considered of decent quality or...
Thanks for the info. The date on the block is D 28 0. I had looked at Pontiac Power and Wallace Racing and found the M4 code but didn't see...
Can't seem to find my paper copy reference materials and internet searches are coming back lacking. Probably my wording on the search I'm...
Cost has certainly taken the wind out of my sails. The only solid quote I've gotten so far was just shy of 1k. That was for 3 sets of heads and 2...
Believe it's just crud on the surface. Looking at this one head in person the main concerns were the divet and the porous condition on the edge....
Early 60s high performance head basically. Newer factory and aftermarket probably easier to come by,cheaper to buy and build and probably offer...
Thanks for the input so far. The castings are 540306 or I probably wouldn't even be contemplating spending the time or money on them. These were...
I've got a set of Pontiac cylinder heads I plan to get checked out. Prior to doing that I'd like to get a general opinion based upon a couple of...
Odd finding this thread resurrected. I looked at a chopped 36 back in the mid 90s that I think was a 60s build that was never completed. Judging...
