I missed this one Ken - subscribed, and looking good! :-)
Possibly Ken - doing my best to get some time off to get up there - just came back from a mission trip to Belize, so it's a bit sketchy. If I make...
Lenny's is looking great! Sadly, mine is just collecting dust, though it's driveable now, not a reacher, but can be driven - tucked in a corner of...
It's all pretty traditional suspension wise, so just an old vintage stretched/dropped axle, and 5.60x15 front tires. Would be even lower with a...
Slow but sure, and not so 'new' anymore - came back from paint in October or so, and have been diddling with it a little. Had a rear nerf on the...
Any of the above will work fine - 1 1/2 will give you a nice crackly bark - I usually leave out the muffler, but on longer drives this can get...
The Mumford car is my vote, however there are a couple other great contenders and for many of the right reasons - but - we've been 'surprised' by...
You guys up there in the NW find all the good cars n' trucks!! :rolleyes:
And the Emory family continues the tradition of going about what they do in a less 'hey look at me' way than most others. That is one of the...
First pic is my daughter in our '29 Roadster Pickup in 2002 - she loves her hotrods! [IMG] Second is a bit later after brother came along -...
Built right here in the town I live in, and in the body shop of the dealership I manage today - 40 feet from where I am sitting - just 50 or so...
Funny - I drug my '33 Sedan home from 'just' north of Nanaimo, Campbell River area I think. It spent it's life on a farm in Saskatchewan,...
Any more of this car running or parked?
I didn't see any postings here about Gary Griffiths, but had heard that he had passed away on October 20th. Here's a picture of his '40 Ford in...
Very cool - the early 60's Dodges still had some of that Virgil Exner influence, which makes the styling wild in my eyes. For the money can't beat...
I like the front block set up for these cars, and have run them on a couple I have owned - a '53 Ford and a '56 Merc with 3 inch blocks on the...
The car was customized in the body shop at the dealership I manage here in McMinnville, Oregon. Being that it was a daily driver, he drove it as...
How come we don't have a 'like' button? Wait - that's another web site. Was only there Friday - maybe next year we can say hey and bench race :-)
Thanks for posting these - I was only there on Friday - but got a good taste of the event. Sorry I didn't get to catch up with you there :-)
Thank you. Some other projects are on the burner too, so have only been 'dinking' with it slowly. For the time being am not continuing with paint,...
[attach] Curt - Thinking this may have to ride in the back from time to time :-)
You got mad skills my friend - can't wait to get back in the seat of the pickup - and shiny to boot!!! I need to come up and take some progress...
McMinnville :-)
Very cool! Thanks for sharing :-)
The paint is in process - the rear fenders are being repaired and metal finished now, and the bed is ready to come back off, rear bumper is off,...
Very cool - definitely a Pacific Northwest thing. Would love to find a set eventually. Oh Dennis....... :-)
Tommy - I couldn't make out the wording, but if I am not mistaken they say Exhaust Spec.? If so these were made by Exhaust Specialties out...
Tell me about the caps or plugs in the bottom photo...... :-)
[IMG] Absolutely, and always - with one exception. My rule of thumb - if it has mufflers, it's got dumps somewhere. If it's running straight...
Awesome video of a simpler time, and definitely a different California than today - kind of reminds me of the area we live in Oregon today (other...
