Wimbledon is actually an off white. I have a parts store near me that has Duplicolor products. If they don't have it they can probably order...
I need to paint just a little panel in Wimbledon White. Does anyone know of a Rustoleum or Krylon color that closely approximates this in a...
No pics but I know a guy who has a very similar truck he wants to unload very reasonably. Hit me up if you're interested and I;ll forward his...
I'm hoping to have them make sense where they butt the back edge of the grill. There will be a concealed piano hinge on the right side to allow...
My shop is packed so it's outside or nothing. You wouldn't believe how many people stop by just for a look. Today after work I took about two...
I just have the one neighbor who is a real Pain in the ass. The rest are cool. Just miserable old folks with nothing constructive to do. I...
I wish I couldmove. My wife loves it here and it's just one Karen I need to sweat. I'm going to soundproof the garage and maybe they'll shut...
Made up a "buck" with some 16 ga. and 3/16 rod to allow a bit of shot bag work to make two pieces that will get joined in the middle. No need to...
Last night I made up a quick and easy fan shroud of 18 ga. CR, added some tabs, epoxy primed and shot it with some rattle can. Looks OK and...
It is but I realized after I ran my big mouth that they are made to take a chrome hinge strip up the center of the hood which won't work with my...
cutting the hood to fit and making a buck to hammer a front nose. Too bad I don't have a '36 chrome nose..... Nah! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Had a few hours last night to work on the grill while I had some great tunes on the shop system. I still need to make a few sections of grill...
Great idea there. I'll make up the front in two pieces of 18 ga. as one of the things that is so easy for me is rolling panels. I have some AK...
Spent a few hours last evening chopping the '36 grill 5 1/8" to a workable height. I had a lot of concern if this would have the look so I...
Banged out some nifty tailight mounts to get the '60's era truck/trailer lights at the right spot. I'm not sure if I like the plate up top like...
I absolutely list the yellow version of this car as one of my top rods ever which includes Jim Inglese "Full House", the restored Edie Dye amd my...
The yellow car in the last pic is the edie Dye car. The first two pics are the duece he replaced it with. The yellow car had a black Chevy...
I'm probably in the minority here but I actually liked the the roadster when it was in the Tom Branch incarnation. Obviously, the way it is now...
I've got the body back on and bolted down with proper oak blocking strips and webbing underneath. Over the winter I finished out the underside...
Very nice coupe. Great proportions and all the right moves on the chassis. Can't wait to see it on the road!
Offering a pair of near perfect Edelbrock valve covers for Chevy. These have no cracks, repairs, or anything else for that matter. Very, very...
Not a lot of experience with bangers. What would be a good newer distributor for an A-bone? Prefer something with either centrifugal advance or...
Selling for a client. This is a Muncie trans, (M'21), numbers show '64-'65 Vette. Internally the trans is excellent, Very, very nice with...
Damn those wheels look good! [IMG]
I used the kit with the GM calipers like TomT, but with Chevelle rotors. No difference but it allowed me to use the '49-50 Chevy passenger wheels...
Always a good swap at the fieldhouse in years past, especially outside. Very limited amount of what I call craft booths for the non car guys....
I'm using those on my Vicky. Even cooler with the backing plates on as per the D-Russ tech. Here's a pic or two of mine. With the wheels on...
I haven't died yet! I have the body inside the shop pounding out a million dents and welding up all the pinholes whenever I have a few minutes....
For me, money is always the issue as well. I have a notorious habit of getting a build about where mine is at now and selling it for spare...
Never been scammed by a real Hamber but a bunch of years ago I sent a few hundred to a Hamber for parts and he just disappeared. I thought he...
