What happened to all of the pictures?
I've only been a member here for a little over a year, but I think the HAMB has a bi-polar disorder. The general consensus of opinions seems to...
Personally, I'd put the whole cam in there. :D
HAHAHAHA! That dog's driving a car! :D
... of that kit-kat bar.
It looks to me like it still has the original pedals and the shifter is for a ruckstell two speed axle. But, it seems unlikely that it's in...
The wheels have definetly got to go! Other than that, it looks great!
I hate rust. I don't know why some people like the rusty tack welded look.
Personally, I think it's from a car to car basis. You know, sort of the overall look of a car. Some look good with a little rake, some look good...
Looks like a real piece of crap. :D J/K Looks great! You've got great skill and some good ideas! I'll be following this one!
I've never been a big fan of patina. I say blast and primer.
But wait, isn't banjorear asking about the replacements? He mentions the dog-bone type of link.
Yes, I see now. Model A's had the tubular links. The bushings I saw were for the dog-bone type replacements you mentioned.
I know Mac's sells the shock link bushings that says they fit 28-35. So, I'd assume the balls are the same size if the bushings fit both links.
Here's a picture of Rolf's coupe: BTW, you can see Rolf's whole build as well as a lot of other pictures at www.classicroad.com.

On the magnum axle, what are those extra holes near the spring perch holes for? Shock mount?
I deliver fiberglass parts to the RV industry. Doesn't pay much, but it's a pretty good job. I just drive around all day and wait for the...

I was definetly born too late. I grew up in the 90's. Not only do I not have any of my christmas gifts, I don't remember them either. :(
Oh that's right. Silly me. :D
Usually, when I'm bolting something together that will need both a bolt and a nut, I'll use a flat washer under the bolt, and a serrated flange nut.
Marrette is a brand of wire nuts.
You got your lathe for free too!!! Where in the world do you find these sorts of deals? The only thing I can ever get for free are steel scraps...
I usually only use split lock washers if I'm replacing a bolt and it originally had one. The way I figure it, the factory did lots of testing to...
Great tip! One thing you didn't mention (or atleast I didn't see) is that the idea is to heat the wire with the soldering gun, and use the hot...
Wish I could get suff like that for free! Looks like a good little machine. What's that green thing behind it?
Aww... It's got to be at 10:00pm. I've got to get up at 3:00am and I need my sleep. :mad: Oh well, I'll have to catch it in January.
