Okay, I'll play. This is our vintage farm house, we believe to have been built in the 1860's. The abstract mentions a dwelling existing on the...
X2 with most everything that’s been said here. The only thing I can add is if the end result is getting out on the road make sure you have the...
I apologize for the quick and misleading response last night. That’s what I get for trying to do one more thing before I go in for the night, I...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] From a 1956 330ci, hope this helps. Rick
My unobtainium is a decent frame for a 41 Desoto, Chrysler is the same, Dodge and Plymouth are different. If you know of something near the...
My first street race was the night I got my license. The folks said I could drive over to see my friend Eric, Eric already had his license for...

This was my sons car, it has not been touched in over five years. You'll notice the car was setup for hand controls. Does not run, does not have...
I’ll end with this last bit of hoodlum life. If you had ever lived near a large racing event in the late sixties to early seventies the weekend...
From the time I got my license until I hit twenty I cannot tell you how many times I was at IRP. We watched NASCAR on the 5/8 oval, before the...

Another couple of years had passed, we were now in our early teens. My buddy came screaming down our gravel driveway on his stingray like there...
A couple of years pass and now were a little older and a little stronger so we can ride our banana seat stingrays a little farther. I don’t...
Reading the post about NHRA moving reminded me of growing up near IRP, or at least that’s what I remember it as. I know this is very similar to...
I'm in the more camp. The wife and I are settling in so hopefully that slows down the honey-dues. I've got a couple of grand-kids that might...

I hate to ask the obvious but have you googled what your looking for? When I wanted numbers for a Desoto project a few years back I googled 1941...
I posted this picture hoping to answer a similar question on a different thread the other day. My flat rate manual only goes back to 1938. If you...

Very impressive skills. I'm curious how you cut the finger joints? Did you buy a jig or make your own, maybe a picture? Is the structural wood...
How about a Motor Age Flat Rate Manual. I dug this out last night to post some part numbers for a 49 Plymouth bushing question. As I stated in the...
Don't know if this is help, the page is from my 1946 Flat Rate repair manual. I'm not sure if the post WW2 is the same as pre WW2. By the way I...
Here's some sketches they had display plus a couple photos of the Cadillac Cyclone
More pictures from the IMA Dream Car display. Not real sure this fits as a prototype but definitely HAMB friendly.
I forgot, thank-you 1959 for 1942 Desoto pictures. That is one beautiful car. I have a '41 Desoto but it is nothing near that condition.
