How do you know your car is safe if it won't pass a spec written by a team of engineers?
We bought a '58 GMC F370 Snubnose truck to haul our new trailer with, and we need it hauled from Medford Oregon to Addison Illinois to the shop....
Well, I'm sure a weekend works best for everyone. A Saturday or a Sunday?
Nah. I just see these threads with people stating where they are from, and thats all that seems to happen. We all live in the same state, why...
So what you're saying is we should have ended the show when we let the first Fiat, Triumph, BSA or Anglea in years ago?
How about an Illinois HAMB meet and greet? I would be happy to host.
It was the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11th. That's all I was saying. And as a matter of fact, of the 6 people who work for the shop, three of us...
Wow, I never posted photos of this thing when we finished the fabrication! The owners had it at the painter for a while, and I believe it's been...

It's an Offy cross ram. Edelbrock and Weiand both made them for BBC also. Normally we wouldn't use a BBC as they weren't made until '66, but the...
Like this one in Bruce Singers '55 GMC? [IMG]
Would it be wrong if I told you I had one Beep?
Sept. 11th? I'll be at some kind of ceremony remembering the fallen.......... Just say'n.
That is the battery box. The electric fan is on the oil cooler, and the red unit is the oil filter bracket from Hamburgers. No worries on the...
We'll have to take some photographs soon. We're building the firewall right now. We'll get that done and get them up here. Wet conditions? I'm...

Unless I'm incorrect, I think he was talking about how they "feel" bigger inside. And that's because they are. MoPars and Essex/Husdon were all...

We borrowed our motor for our slingshot to build the motor mounts in the truck before the builder was done with the SOHC. We have an Edelbrock...

We do build cars that "go to 11." :D [img]
It is a Spalding. We rebuilt it here in the shop. Our sister company is Victory Speed Equipment. So when we rebuilt an old hiperf dizzy, we put...
Thanks guys!
We're '64 and earlier, dragsters of any era, and on Friday night plenty of people drive their dailys. :D
We usually suggest around 6pm, so that we have time to wrap up our work for the day before people come over.
