The Jalopy Journal
Here's my 54 Chevy COE I purchased a while back. We finally got it home and am just searching for parts and planning out the build at this point....
Wwo, you really made this truck look nice. I really like the front work you're doing. I also say keep the bed as well. With the minor tweaks and a...
I just read this from start to finish...... Kevin, you did amazing work on this truck and I commend you. Greay job! Ray, congrats on a rare cool...
Very cool! Did you use two cabs to stretch it, or part of a burb shell and another truck cab?
The ledges is a great place for a GTG. We had one there for a 67-72 chevy truck club a while back.
Today's progress included a design change in the trans mount/cross member. I decided the 1/4" plate and my mounting pieces may be excessive. I...
Dan, great work and it had to be nice to see an engine sitting in between those rails. From your pics, it sure looks like you could get a short...
Very nice 40! I like the different cluster bezel. I've thought about doing something like that and using my gps for speedo as you have. Great work...
That's a nice score IMO if it's a usabl core for sure. I've got more than that in mine just to buy it as well. I'm still in the early hemi...
Very cool to see a younger guy into rods and custome at your age for sure! I got my first old car when I was 13 from my Uncle. It was a 39 Chevy....
Today I got the bar stiffners made and in place. Last night I ordered a power booster master cylinder kit that came with a proportioning valve and...
I managed to get some decent progress done over the weekend. Saturday I got rid of all of the junk tires we had and hopefully by next year I have...
Getting the bars set just right on this I thought was going to be cake. But, turns out not so much. :) I've got the LH one welded on and will now...
I didn't get as much done this weekend as I wanted to, but I took my time and tried not to ruin too much tube. :) In the pics you can see my first...
I found some more small holes from a torch, and one patch that was put in the frame. They did a pretty decent job on the patch. I went ahead and...
I found some nice holes in the frame that I never noticed before either. Apparently when who ever hacked off the old spring hanger brackets they...
Those are some sweet sedans for sure!
John and all who helped, it was awesome! I don't know if moving the non traditional area was a last minute descion on Saturday, but I think that...
It's been a while since I could work on this car. I had to build my wife a vehicle to haul our family in, and we have had some customer trucks to...
Haha, I hear what you're saying.
Firewall is looking good!
I like it a lot Nate. I'd like to get mine that low as well.
I agree that you should raise admission to help meet your goal. In my experience the people crying about the admission are the ones causing issues...
Oldcurmdgeon, that is a nice car even if it is a little aged. Someone did it very nice when they built it!
That's pretty bitchin! I need one of those! :) I got our hotel room booked at the Comfort Inn. Anyone else staying there?
I only see 3 pairs of carbs there.
That intake and carb set up is so bad ass! Nice find!
The top looks really nice! Congrats on being able to drive it now, and also congrats on being able to take your granddaughter for a ride in it. I...
Coolstuff, I know where the "Other" cars and trucks parked as I was there last year. I was just curious if they were going to be there again in...
I'm coming again this year. I doubt my 40 is done so I plan on driving my 72 K30. Will the cars and trucks that can't enter the main show still be...
