The Jalopy Journal
I take living in Georgia for granted sometimes. Anything older than 1986 only needs a bill of sale to get registered in your name. Broadway was...
Pretty cool, and nice work! I was hesitant to post this up, but you can also hack up an old racing seat too:...
I hate to admit it, but it is my O/T '75 Plymouth Duster. Would it help if I lied and said it was for my '61 Olds? :) They are stainless...
I found that thread. Cool tech, but he's making the drip rail itself. I need the trim piece that snaps over that. On my car it hides the edge of...
So some POS stole one of the drip rail moldings off my car. It is a long piece with a gentle curve in it, pretty simple form. I was thinking of...
I went. It was one huge used car lot. For every one car on display there were 100 cars for sale. Nobody was really cruising, most cars were driven...
Old crazy friend of mine had a teargas canister rigged up under the dash of his truck. It was rigged to the pedals. Simple setup really. Just put...
From the title of this thread I expected to read "and beat the ever loving crap out of him for stealing stuff off my property." I live in the...

Roll it out, clean it up. It would probably bring $5k.
Holy gear reduction Batman!
Fan-frick'n-tastic man. Those welds on the bellhousing are unbelievable! Sure it isn't a 3W or a RPU, but the skills are top notch. Hell, I got a...
My 1969 Olds Delta 88 has the speedo driven off the front left wheel. The cable is fed through the center of the spindle. I can't remember how the...
Once again proving that hot rodding is the great denominator! No countries, no boundaries, just cool cars and the folks that love them.
Just wait for the estate sale.
Leave the roof and just raise the belt line, and make this: [IMG] Of course this is WAY off topic, but I love Mark IIIs.
Thanks for confirming my color scheme idea for my O/T '75 Duster. It is getting the black/gold treatment for sure now!
I've been looking at the 4.3L as a swap candidate for my '61 F-85. The engine bay on the F-85 is pretty short and a SBC won't fit without cutting...
