Any pics out there of closed truck cabs converted to roadster cabs? Just mulling over how I want to handle my windshield. Previous owner had cut...
The 40 reminds me of what they used to say about Barbara Striesand. "She's beautiful, but that NOSE!"
I've spotted a couple of gnarly looking hammers you got. Look like homemade. Got any picks of them?
I wonder what the history is with the firewall being cutout like that and frame horns cut off. Maybe it almost became a hot rod or the cab was...
Here's mine. I can use all the luck I can get. [IMG]
I bet a stump of bois d'arc would make a good one. A chain saw will throw sparks from a well seasoned piece of it. I know where there is a bois...
Those are the craziest taillights I've seen yet. Are they actually motorized to swing back and forth when signaling?
All dual point lack vaccum advance?
I have seen a pic somewhere where that thing is sitting in a wrecking yard rotting away. Surely there can't be two of them.
I have LOVED this van since the first time I saw it. Love that paint. I had someone give me a whole set of books on upholstery from one of...
Yep, I have several disks of various places around the world from the 1950's - 60's. I'd love to find some more car related. I've even got the...
You also might be seeing rubber casting flash that can "look" like broken metal. Do you know for sure its broke? You can find those around $20...
Olds. The oil filler, the coolant bypass neck, the valve covers. As to what Olds, try here: http://www.442.com/oldsfaq/ofeng.htm

I love caveman tech! (that is a compliment)
I found a WWII army manual for a GMC 6x6 and folded within the pages was this inspection report. The book alone was neat, but it was really cool...
The Duke boys did. They welded them shut! LOL
Excuse my ignorance as I haven't had the pleasure of being around a lot of old bangers, but what years did Ford use the bank of 4 coils on their...
I believe its the same one I have. Ports out the driver side is my problem.
I have a 28 rpu I'm building. Front brakes are 55 F1 drum, rear is 69 Ford F100. I purchased a 69 Ford MC. I chose this one partly because it has...
Bought the switch today. I'm a little dense here. Starter circuit vs ignition. So the S is coming from the key switch run position, right? Then...
Hey, for these 3 pin switches, are you also running a mechanical oil pressure gauge? I'm just thinking how I want to connect it all. This on a SBF...
Thinking this through and wondering how to best wire the electric fuel pump I am using. Do you wire it so that the pump is on during starting or...
I have heard of people just using small dorm fridges. Seems like that would be a cheap way to go. Me and some friends are working together on...
I want the type of fuel gauge that is brass fittings with a glass tube that mounts to the side of a tank to see the fuel level, but I don't even...
Hate to see it change hands, but I can't argue with that DeSoto. Always one of my favs too. Hope someone picks it up and turns it into another...
