Was your great-grandfather Homer Dixon?? Or did he sell the property to him? Or was he across the street from Homer's place? My grandfather worked...
In the background, I see a 32 body in the back of a pickup. I'd say someone got themselves a new toy. Congrats!
I managed to make it up there as well. Got to meet a few of you (it was my pleasure) The heat started getting to me, though. I spent all day in it...
How is the vendor area for this meet? Lots of parts? Lots of vendors? I live in Marietta so its a bit of a hike from my place. I don't have any...
Got one - a Dewalt I've had for about 7-8 years. So I should be fine there. I don't remember off the top of my head if its adjustable but I think...
Anyone know any places in the Marietta, GA area that offer welding classes?
I'm looking to get my hands on a welder so that I can...well....weld. I've never welded anything in my life and I'm planning on using it to do...
I bought my present house back in 1995. It was just a regular ole house with insufficient garage space. I talked to my new neighbors and told them...
I like wire/bank transfers. I don't have to worry about counterfeit bills, counterfeit money orders, or anything else counterfeit. I also don't...
Proven? To whom? All the other small block Chevy guys? Plentiful? Yes. Cheap? Yes. Most versatile? :rolleyes: Easiest to obtain more HP out of vs...
Leave a chop. Not a lot of them get to stay coupes. Plus, I have a Sport Coupe and I'm partial to having a top on it.
Arrrrg.....the dreaded red X. I see about half the pics. The rest are red X's. What I do see is really cool.
Its only cheaper if your value on your time is cheap - which my value on my time is not. Its bizarre to me, too. And, I'm another FNG! :confused:
Before starting a motor, sit down and make a checklist of everything you need to tighten, attach, or otherwise line up. And then triple check...
Maybe a $199 axle?? :) I'm with you on the point tho. The only way to do it cheaper is to know how to drop the existing axle via welding and...
Thanks for serving our country. Get back home in one piece! And then build yourself a hellacious ride.
DOH! Big misread on my part. I was thinking...well...something else. I'll shut up and sit in my corner.
I have 7 vehicles plus my wife's driver. 2006 Dodge 3500 CTD 4x4 (my driver) 2002 Nissan Maxima (wife's driver) 1930 Model A Sport Coupe...
I'd media blast it. Don't sandblast it, though, as that can warp the panels. A good soda blast should get it, though. Or get it dipped.
Good stuff....thanks Wrong-Un
3 inches? Hmmm....that looks like I could fit in that. I think how much I can chop it will depend on the seats I put in it and how high they sit....
I would die to weld that nicely. Heck, I've never welded a thing in my life. But, I KNOW that's some fine work. Good job. No....make that GREAT job.
Wow...Clark that IS nice - good job. And, the window is exactly the part I was worried about. I guess I'll talk to some upholstery guys and see...
Anyone ever chopped an A Sport Coupe and then put the canvas (or whatever material it is) top on it? Is there someone that sells chopped canvas...
Ouch that does hurt. But, I'm glad someone got a good deal. Still, it hurts a little less knowing the deal I got on my hemi. I have a 354...
This one isn't mine. I got it off one of the Model A threads. I really liked it though and plan to borrow from it a good bit as I will be painting...
I had a 67 Impala that caught fire and also melted the carb right off the block. I did pop the heads and intake to check it and it was fine. I...
Yeah, I knew the Cuda's weren't a real good match for this site. I largely hang out at http://www.moparts.com for them. But, I figured I'd mention...
Another newbie here. I've been a lurking reader off and on for a couple of years but never got around to registering. So, I was wanting to do some...
