That is awesome thank you!
Thank you for solving the mystery.
yeah I'm not sure they are related. It really has a Mopar look to me but the "equipped" might not make sense on a Mopar car. That makes it...
Can anyone tell me what this sticker is? Looks like it's Mopar related but I can't confirm. Some people have said it's similar to a Gabriel...
It's a little scary for sure. Pedals are really close so you have to be careful. One other thing I found is that I'm not real happy with the...
Was that the Pete Chapouris car? There have been a bunch of Husky drag cars through the years. Here's another direction one might go. [ATTACH]
I've been enjoying it and taking it to local shows. Page 23 shows final pictures of the car. People usually walk by it and almost don't...
I'm clearing out the garage cause I need the space. These are leftover parts from my 392 hemi build. Some of the parts include: new stock...
[IMG] SOLD 7/18/17. I'm selling my 1956 Desoto Fireflite. It's got a great running 330 with push button transmission and turns heads wherever...
I just went out and found it. Found the invoice too. Do you want to make your own? I've got a call in to the place that made mine to see if...
Yes I'll be glad to share it if I can find it. It's a little cardboard piece that I made as a template. Will go look for it this weekend.
Wow looks to be in great shape. Interior looks original too. I love that color. That's going to be a fun one.
Hope it works for you.
I think it will help. I was pleased that when I idled it yesterday it brought it from 190 to 180. It only got to 190 because I had shut it...
Here it is. Cost was $58.97 and had to modify the dimensions a bit to fit my car. SUM-380458-SH Fan Shroud, Aluminum, Single Fan, 20.75 in....
Thanks. Always loved them too.
Got a tach on the way. Its pretty small 52mm so hopefully I can find a place for it. They didn't have one less than 8,000 RPMs. [ATTACH]...
This was the big accomplishment over the weekend. The temp would creep up a bit at idle so I wanted a fan shroud. Gives it a more finished look...
Its been a while since any updates but I finally crossed two more of the to do list. This is the correct grill for the car. Found it NOS on...
Holy cow that's a Hillman Californian on the left. A very rare car. Wish I could find one of those. [ATTACH]
Sounds like the 52 Minx will be a fun one. Post a picture....would love to see it.
It's not done yet. Still loose ends to chase. Lots to do like weatherstripping, new windshield, windshield wipers, interior trim work,...
I already went the hubcap route on my other Husky with a V8 so thought Id do something different on this one. These are original wheels but I...
Thank you!
Took some photos yesterday while I was out driving around. [ATTACH] I think I'll swap out this grill for another one that is original to the...
It's a bottle from a windshield washer set-up on a Sunbeam/Hillman. I added the brass fittings and mounted it using the original mount. I...
Yeah I'll snag a few. Will try and get a video too.
The stone guards add a nice finishing touch. Still need the rubber trim around the edges but I like the look. These are off a Hillman Minx....
Spent some time on the car this weekend getting the parcel tray under the dash finished. My buddy Dave whipped out the sheet metal and then we...
Thanks. I never like throwing things together. I like working out the little details and that's why its taking so long to get it finished.
