The Jalopy Journal
From my days in vintage aircraft restoration, make parts out of card stock. Easy to cut with scissors and hold together with tape. Measure many...
As an old friend once told me, "you can make it as complicated as you want".
That looks like a boat manifold.
Slot head, not Phillips.:rolleyes:
Corvair with shielded military style ignition?
No piston/valve clearance problems with a flathead.
Pull the pumpkin and carry it into the shop and you take a big part of the time factor out of the job or if you feel adventurous read up on the...
^^^ Lovimg that GN. Has to generate some good sounds.
Just remembered a friend back in the '60s who inadvertently flipped the banjo on his Model-A. Three speeds in reverse is rather useless.
Been a long time since I messed with a Columbia, like 60 years so I don't think I remember all the details, but doesn't the gear section go on the...
Look like Morgans to me.
A little bit of homage to the beginnings of our obsessions,...
Look closer at the pictures of the car. It has typical GN quarter elliptic springs at all four corners.
Dang impressive home built.
Never seen that one before. What is it's history and parentage?
Anything easier than a jar of thinner or MEK to clean them of the paint residue?
That's one amazing car. More fun than an Model T with a blown Hemi in it. Makes every hair stand up just hearing it.
Life changing moments that we never forget.
Interesting carb mounting on the pictures with the fuel block. It seems like the standard mounting has always been with the float bowls to the front.
For "not a lot to report on" you seem to be doing better than my slow progress. Looking good!
Don't feel bad 31Hotrodsedanman. Had the dream of building my '64 back when I was a high school senior in 1964 and the Dodge was new. Had the car...
You could always keep the A and put a '34 body on it.
Is that a 2 stroke V8?
Looks good. The white will keep the panel cooler and possibly the inside of the car too. Goes good with the wheels too.
Looks like a good choice for a keeper. Give her some paint an upholstery and enjoy driving for a while. You have a great little hotrod there, have...
The need has been filled.
Early Dynaflow transmissions are 99% slip anyway. No "drive" gear, just a loose converter,
That thing would look great with a fresh coat of sea foam green. Roller or brush.
Put chains on my '77 Chevy 3/4 ton 4 times. Didn't need to, but living in SoCal we had to because the CHP said so. As far as I'm concerned that...
Have a fun trip.
