I once ran 10.00 AT's and then some 255/70-15's on my '57 using the stock rear and some 8" steelies (I do not know the backspacing although maybe...
Looking good and nice you're having fun too!! Go man go!
Thanks for response. I tried the plumber’s torch and it helped but I think I may have been a little too aggressive and I have some oil canning...
Any tips on removing that undercoating? I have a similar situation. Some of it has come off with a putty knife or chisel but other parts hasn’t.
I love threads like this. Fixing things as you go along using ingenuity and available resources. Thanks for documenting and sharing! Keep up...
Interesting find for sure. One thought if it were me is since it's already heavily modified the guilt not to keep it bone stock would be mostly...
Don't know anything about these guys but they do carry Taylor ones TA DAD referenced:...
Thanks for the details. Yeah, that's pretty tight. I was wanting to run 10" slots on mine without tubbing but you run out of room in and under...
Very tasteful on the wheel tub install. Chassis is looking nice too. Are you running 8" or 10" wheels?
Thanks for the details! I have an old Advance Adapters one (for a long gone off topic project) that came with some spacers to where it bolts on....

For hard lines I have always used brake line material with inverted flare connections and had no issues. For areas needing hose, just make sure it...

This has been a great thread to follow. Interesting idea on the fender skirting. Reminds me of a '35 International pickup front fender.
I have a '57 Chevy pickup that has a tailgate => 57Tailgater.
Those holes almost look too in line, spaced out and thought out some to be from a shot gun. Pretty big holes to not have evidence on the outer...
Thanks for explanation!! Squirted instead of sprayed, eh? Now I know.
Ok, this is coming from someone who has no painting experience except from a rattle can. On the surfaces, what are the white stringy looking...
I love this thread!!
I believe too the front springs are angled on AD's.
How does one determine the thickness to go with? Do you study the thermal conductivity of each material or see what works for others and what the...
Looks like a great start!! Can’t wait to see updates.

Internals and stand from 1950's/1960's Champion model 800 Spark plug cleaner/tester. Only using the cabinet and I do not need these. Do not know...
