So that's who that is. I always wondered. Have seen the name at museums downtown and wondered. Now I know. Thanks.
None of my blade fuses has slo-blow written on them. You have made my point. Let me guess, electrician by trade? Probably one in ten of...
Standard practice is to use 30 amp fuse on 10 gage, 20 amp on 12 gage, 15 amp on 14 gage, 10 amp on 16 gage. That's really all you want to know....
Is stealing cars traditional? Just asking because if it's not, than this thread should be closed. Always remember that as the HAMB grows, so...
Probably not the same stuff. I don't know for sure because I use the Norton or 3M plastic made for the job. It's inexpensive - less than 50.00...
Usally mask the car with plastic. On the edges, I fold the tape back to create a soft edge. PM me for details and help.
I totally agree with this. When the rest of the system is up to par, you will have turn the fan spped or the temp down. They work really well.
As I posted earlier, I am in the "buy another wheel cylinder" camp. It's not a slam on your or your methods. I have absolutely no idea of your...
It's BRAKES. Pony up the C-note and get on with life. Your life and the people in front of you are worth way way more than 100 bucks.
make your template and transfer it to the metal you will be using. Cut the metal at least 1/4" wider than you need. Shape as needed. Clean the...
I like a couple coats of DP on the bare metal. I let it sit a few days, I block the DP with 180. See the low spots and...
I think you did the right things so far. I'd much rather clear the silver and scuff later right before I clear the whole car. Before you paint...
So how does a contaminated tungsten affect the actual weld? Ive been doing the neaderthal way of sharpening on a grinding wheel. What...
Uh - Yea whatever. Without exception, my family has always been the first ones to support me but they have also been the first ones to screw me....
Wow. 30 swaps in two years? I can honestly say that I don't know 30 people that have cars/trucks that would be interested in a swap. As...
Lots of hangouts. Lots of cruise nites. Depends on where your going to live. Houston is a big place. Welcome. You can leave all of your...
I've got a '55 bird at work waiting on me. We had the body soda blasted and the right fender had over 1/2" of filler. Apparently, it was wrecked...
Best I've used is 3M adhesive remover. Coomes in either a quart or an areosol.

We have one at work. The manual is pretty detailed wtih troubleshooting info.
Girls need a "Girls weekend" just like us guys do. Good for you. Good for her for wanting to take the cool stuff out for the girls weekend.
Karma. That guy has most likely helped other poeple in neeed during his lifetime. His payback came when you all stopped and helped. Good on...
I can only name two. I'm sure that they are all bad asses when it comes to metal. Fill us in...................
One of the higher end shops that I worked for (they are Alliance members and might have sold Ryan a car) had a '32 frame powdercoated. It came...
Can you pull the drivetrain out so it looks as though you have less money in it?
And there is the proof. An actual owner involved in the process. Knows what it takes to do it right. He's 280 hours of labor plus paint into...
Cortect me if I'm wrong but I always thought that you had to pass the Mig class to be avle to register for the Tig class.
I can buy all of the R-12 cans that I want to legally. It's when I want to buy a 30lb cylinder that I have to whip out MACS certification. I...
ZMAN read my quote right. It's an estimate. We don't do any scuff and shoot jobs. Never works out right. We really like to deliver a product...
