I think it matches up with a Ford color from the 70's... I can talk to my body guy and see if he has it on file. My front clip got re-painted and...
Nice choice. I would actually love to see an Indian that color.
I had to stop following his build after it snow-balled into something massive. I came to the point where I knew it would be in RJ so I wanted to...
I rarely post here any more but you can look through my build and album pics. I deep-sized the factory master and booster on my '57 and bought a...
I'm running an HEI on my '57 347 with no trouble. Fits perfect, runs great and looks awful. I'm really partial to HEI. I believe it to be the...
Looks nice! Tell us about the supercharger set-up you're running...
Kanter sells the correct bearing and seal for this. I exhausted all the inexpensive options on my 57 before getting the right piece from them. You...
I will wager that any kit for a Chevy will not work, without modification, in your Pontiac. Why don't you fab side mounts and put a later model...
Great operation and they also happen to be an Alliance Vendor. Not a bad place to walk around and just look.
I used a firewall style master/booster pedal assembly from Speedway and added a master/booster from Auto City Classic on my 57. I also did a front...
You have a good wiring kit so don't return it. Like others said, take your time! Another thing I found helpful is to get rid of all the old...
Looks great! I really like the 55's side trim and clean, simple lines. I would never get rid of my 57 but would like a 55 for the wife if I could....
Dang this thread is old! Seen the car in person but it gets a little lost with the rest of the cool stuff at the Lemay Museum.
I have the dual-coupling in my 57 Pontiac and it works well now that it's been rebuilt. Getting it rebuilt was NOT CHEAP! As some one mentioned...
I have a driver's door. 2 door hardtop. It needs some work. Some rust, maybe a little crease or 2.
I have a decent hood, but its in MN... Also a long way to ship to NY.
Looking for the heater slider knobs and rear bumper caps, if they aren't totally rotted. I could use tail light housings but would assume they're...
Power brakes or manual?
Or just have a new cable made to your specification. I used these guys http://store.controlcables.com/servlet/StoreFront I sent them a rusty cable...
Are you talking about a fuel pump that would run a vacuum wiper system? Would a vacuum reservoir help any?
I'll be driving this... Can I still get in? :D [IMG]
Car came back from the shop last week... Looking forward to next weekend! What time do things really get started on Friday?
Any radiator shop can leak check the cores themselves. I pulled mine out and will do an under dash heat/ac unit. I may have some parts if you need...
Have an experienced blaster do the body, it may not be cheap, but its worth it. Blasting builds a lot of heat and can warp panels quickly. Master...
Hey! I've been going through the same thing on my 57. I have the bearing, it's a Timken 514003. I did some research because the outer race had a...
So I called Moser and they said they haven't had an issue putting in the ungrooved, sealed, roller bearing in when driving that seal into the...
It would probably be fine as is, but if you really want an o ring type seal places like Moser still sell the grooved bearings at least from the...
So I have a bearing question. I bought a wheel bearing from Rock Auto. It is Timken part # 514003. I got the part and it looks slightly different....
Rough start! Right there with you on the snow front! My luck is worse than yours... Trans barfed on the Pontiac yesterday and then I dropped it...
Those floors are dreamy... Making your own is the way to go. There's a guy who sells pans on ebay. I bought a pair and was disappointed in every...
