The Jalopy Journal
Dunno how he did it...
This is bitchin, please build it. To really go for the kill, I'd chop it 2-1/2 inches and re-shape the rear of the roof. Hey Rikster, any ideas?
+5 on this. Only thing I've ever found that works. Plus, it keeps the cars dust, rust, and corrosion free.
^ Yeah, I dig it. Sawzall time?
Congratulations Keith, you deserve the honor for showing guys that anything can be re-cut into something cool. Actually exceptionally cool. This...
^ Put Rikster's roof chop on that one, then we've really got a custom worth pondering.
That will work on any leaf spring car technically, but I can't recommend it.
I'll contend that there's a distinct difference between a 'jalopy' and a 'rat rod'...
This one has the potential to be really sweet. I'd love have one for top-down cruising.
Hollwood Hot Rods is building that one for Ron Lee. www.hollywoodhotrods.com

Holy crap, where/when were these taken?
There's absolutely no reason to use phosphoric acid or other hazardous materials to remove rust on your car, there are plenty of much safer (and...
That's an odd thing to say, there are a ton of Y blocks in F-1's, etc that ares still driven regularly and even used for towing without issue....
Sounds like you bought the car counting on it to retain value as an investment. If that's the case, the 327 will only hurt you in the long run...
Get one of these and experiment.
+1 for Vernes. They're top-notch and Bob is a great guy. I can vouch for the quality of their work. Also, five cars at the last Pebble Beach show...
It's not quite ripe yet...:D
Email the boys over at the SEMA Action Network. This is exactly the type of stuff they fight against. Make sure you join up too.
Here ya go, problem solved:...
Only after '94, and those are slightly longer.
Yup, Rangers and Aerostar Vans equipped with 8.8's. It's only one from each that will work though, so you need to find two rears in a junkyard....
Man, I want that thing! Did it sell? Not sure about the price on V8 60 stuff, but tracking down the parts will difficult.
That's why it's $6.99 on the stands, that makes up for a lot. There will be more ads once it's a proven seller.
Ye of little faith...
My dad, my aunt, and both Grandmas... Dad was only 48, don't neglect colonoscopies.
What? You've never heard of the Ambiguously Gay Duo? It was an SNL cartoon a few years back. I think you can find it on You Tube.
Hmmmm.....
Other than wheels and tires I'd say lower it, some good pinstriping, find a roadster cover for the rear, and call it done. As for wheels, the...
That's awesome. Makes me a feel vindicated over saving so many rough hunks that have been cast off. :)
