I would suggest starting with a small sheet of 18 or 20 gauge cold rolled steel from your local hardware store. Get a small shot bag and a couple...
What a nightmare. Hopefully well insured.
I’m still here as well! Just living vicariously through you as my tank is still in the rafters :)
lol there is at that!
Yup, the little stripper disks work well. One disk stripped the full panel. Found a couple of small dings and a little pitting, but it’s an honest...
Hi Bob! Long time. Great suggestion. I think I have a couple of those from HF somewhere. I’ll give them a shot.
The 57 has been taking all the time and money recently. Not to mention the new seat upholstery for the 53 and a Fenton split exhaust found at the...

Wow, long time! Time to build another?
I want this. cheap entry into the Willys world. Then, of course no money for the rest of your life as you source parts. :)...
Very nice! Congrats Drive it till the wheels fall off :)
So much that I don’t know about tri-fives!
Good to know, thanks

I’ll check them out. Cool 56 you have btw
I would agree, probably a later install. This is a stock 30 cowl post: [ATTACH]
Yeah, goofy is what has me concerned. Sounds like 15s are the way to go. who makes an authentic chrome reverse? I see a lot of smoothies etc, but...
Why the hell did Chevy run a 14 inch wheel in 57?! I’m looking for a set of authentic chrome reverse wheels. I currently have 14” and would like...
