I'm a huge fan of the original Dragnet. From 1951 through 1959, 276 episodes aired. Of those 276 episodes, only around 60 are available to be...
So I was looking for good American Graffiti memes this evening and couldn't find any. I did the American thing: I made some myself. Here they...
I think I'm finally going to start a Model A I've had for a while. Decided to stick with the 4 banger just for simplicity sake. I've got a...
What is the factory steering column tube size on a 1930-31 Ford Model A? I can't find anything in a Google search except for irritation...
I know many people have done it, but I am struggling to figure out the right idea as to how to get it done. Does anybody have pictures of a Small...
I've been thinking about moving the leaf springs inboard on my 55 T-Bird for years, but I can't come up with a design that I like. Has anybody...
I floated this idea a long time ago, but I never followed through. I actually started a thread on this a long time ago, but I was not a nice guy...
The majority of the stuff I own is carbureted, but I must admit that I fell for the LS craze a while back. I got really close to putting one in a...
I'm looking for pictures from the late 1950s and early 1960s with hot rods or customs with a Mopar B or RB engine. Anybody have any?
I've been looking everywhere, but I can't find anybody who has actually installed a rear 4 link on a 1955-57 Thunderbird. Has anybody installed...
I finally got around to installing new wheel studs on an old hub this evening. Got four installed. The fifth one spins in the hole. Does anyone...

How did we miss this one? Here you go. Thunder Alley with Fabian. Enjoy! [MEDIA]
I don't know if any of you feel this way, so I'll start from the beginning. I bought a local car a few years back. To make a long story short,...
This is awesome. I can't explain it any other way. Enjoy! [MEDIA]
I don't know if I'm stepping on any toes with any other threads that may have already been created on this subject, but I'm looking for ideas with...
I want to install a push button 727 into a vehicle for which one was never designed. What are all the components I'd need to make one work?
A really good buddy of mine turned me on to this last Saturday, and I want to pass it forward. Dion Dimucci of Dion and The Belmonts took time to...

Why? The market is flooded with cheap Chinese reproductions for everything (including gas tanks for everything), but no one is reproducing the...
I know this is a dead horse with multiple threads having already been created, but for some reason search just isn't bringing me back anything I...
The official name of this video is "SPS Your Electric Servant Amarillo (1962-64)". This is my hometown. It's where I still find myself after all...
