29 Model A truck cab. Problem #1: Both doors have similar stress cracks (the crack in the pic posted was "repaired" by a PO). I did a search and...
Don't recognize any of the cars or drivers, but I dig it anytime there's some vintage film involved. I do recognize the chicane/s curves at...
Me and the kid are bailing out of Grand Junction, CO here on Thursday a.m. and will be enroute (leaving everybody else at the homestead).:D If...
Here you go...sorry for the delay. The first pic tells you which block goes where depending on whether your 29 is a P/U, Sedan, etc... [IMG] I...
I just got a kit for my 29 P/U. Some pieces measure 1" and others are 1 1/4" thick. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my diagram (which tells...
Hey, Johnnie, Tom, and the rest of the Gunnison and Lonely Knights crowd!! Another VLV Virgin here. Can't wait!! The 29 is no where close to...
Check out what Thuderbirdesq is doing on this thread... Good stuff... Hot Rods Enough monkeying around: let's build a 5w, or another 4dr bites...
Had a couple of the black handled drivers go at right about the same time recently after about 30+ years. Both just crumbled. No problem....
;)Nice one...;)
Impressive AND totally weird. Therefore, I dig it!!
I think it's a bit more involved than that. Most fuel cells will have to be upgraded. How 'bout if you run an electric fuel pump? I've heard...
If you're looking for an alternator bracket, Speedway has a couple of versions. Here's a link to one......
Hey, just remember, vertical toeboards equal more room for YOUR Tootsies! You can make the rest of it work, bro...
Personally?... DUDE! Keep the whole thing and gather the parts you need for the "dusted" side and make a decent rod out of it. You CAN do it!......
Depends on how your rod is set up, I'd think. As far as my 29 Model AA truck, I'm thinkin' that vertical toes would give me just a bit more room...
Thanks, Rocky...I remember after I raced there and then saw the mall go up that it just freakin' killed me every time I went past. And, if I'm...
Hey, Rocky! You can't do an overlay like that, it'll just confuse everybody (like me, fer instance-not that it takes much). Like, fer intstance,...
I can do that! :D Here's Big Daddy in shock when I told him I had some good news and some bad news. I handed him the title to the truck and the...
Hey, Dean Lowe and Mazooma1, Thanks for the way cool pix! My first time to RIR was around 73 or so to watch Petty wring out that Superbird around...
Here's one I did for my dad to give to him just because I think he deserved it so he could just putt around town. No time to do a total makeover...
Eryk, Thanks for posting this. For those of us who have left SoCal (speaking for me, anyways...), it truly makes us wish we had NEVER left. Born...
Yeah, well, I was learning HTML 3 at about the same time, Ryan. The difference? YOU applied yourself & did an absolutely incredible thing with...
Great Thread! It's good stuff once in a while. Good thing I work alone, or everybody would look at me and wondering why I'm laughing so hard here...
I'm not the flattie expert, but I think that once you go 3 3/8, well, that's it-anything else and your block is dust...(okay, not counting...
Don't worry about the bore...It should have plenty of meat. Lots of discussion of whether or not to go with 3 or 4 rings, but 3 seems to be...
I like it! Thanks from someone who is just about to tackle that job...
SWEET Thread! Thank You! Makes me want to find an FED and use one of the 3 8BA's I have hangin' around (guess I should finish my 29 Model A truck...
^^^Yeah, mine too... That and I won't have to jog tomorrow, my heart rate was already way up after the video. Nice Flattie!!
HILARIOUS!! That is SO me... gosh, and I thought it was just me...
Aw, Crap! Me too! Then I segued into the entire length of Speed Racer and then went to Gigantor (no he wasn't racy, but he was a cool...
