The Jalopy Journal
Maybe it's like the lottery; I guess I won this time out, but may not be as lucky next time.....
I placed an order from them on the 3rd, and everything arrived today. It was well packed, and all the parts look good. The only complaint I have...
I couldn't find one that I liked, or that would fit like I wanted, so I built my own. It's not a complicated part to fab, and mine works great.
Mine took right at 5 months, including chopping, channeling, scratch built frame, etc., but I wouldn't recommend it....
I believe the "A" was for engine displacement
It apparently started life as a 49-51 Ford
Milner's car only had one because the script called for it. He turned it off anyway....
There's Petit Jean on Father's Day weekend near Morrilton, AR, but it's probably not big enough for you.
If you really want a nostalgia car, then the A is the only way to go. Dodges weren't hotrodded the way the Fords were; just because it's different...
I'd pass too, and I really like the '60-'66 Chevies.
While I like all versions of this car, the AMBR winning version is my favorite. I'm glad that's the one you're going for.
I'm jealous of the 30 minutes you salvaged.....
You forgot SPEND
This quote should be hot rod gospel; no truer words have been written
If they're still there, there are also some old Model Ts in the bushes behind a rifle range near Onofre, if I'm not mistaken. I found them while...
You have to use zero offset wheels with the crown vic front end
I bought one at Hobby Lobby that is an inline four, but it is still neat. The sparkplugs even light up...
Happy 234th Devil Dogs
What did their cat have to do with it? You don't like dealing with the source either?
I served with 2nd and then 1st Divisions in the USMC as an infantryman from '88-'92, including the first Gulf War. I've often wondered how many...
Maybe I'm spoiled by what's available here, but I wasn't impressed by much in the pics. Some of the tri five stuff looked ok, but otherwise.....
I used the pedal assembly from a 70's Ford car on my '46 Ford truck, and it works quite well. Mine flexed the firewall a lot until I attached it...
I can't imagine why anyone would have ruined two vehicles (and a ton of bondo) to make that one....The cab and engine look salvageable at least,...
The rails look parallel, but they aren't nor are they flat on top. Mine measures 27 1/2 " o/c at approx the motormounts and 29 3/8 o/c at the rear...
I found this link on motorcycle exhaust, but nothing about cars; http://www.cmsnl.com/community/misc/law.php?subject=Muffler
I don't think Arkansas requires mufflers per se, but the exhaust must exit behind the passenger compartment.
I was thinking the same thing...
I polished the fins beforehand and just waited for the paint to completely dry. It chips right off the polished portions with only a fingernail...
Sorry to burst your bubble, but that isn't stock height. You lowered it when you used smaller diameter tires.
If you're using the star, You should use U.S.A.A.F. instead of Air Force.
