The Jalopy Journal
well i had my camera with, didnt use it at all though, i saw pasojohns el camino a few times, once cruisin around on friday and it was my favorite...
anybody get pics of the elcamino that was yellow with the flaked roof and bedsides?
I'll be there Sunday with my girlfriend but I don't have a hot rod and probably won't for a few more years so i'll just be wandering around...
theres a ton of pictures on 50chevy.com, theres a huge stockpile of gambinos frame on there too check this link--->...
edit--> theres the link to one badass bagged chevy frame http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=168229
fabric softener sheets work pretty well in my opinion
Yeah I understand the difference and all and I've seen the 2 link setups on stock older GM vehicles but sometimes if the uppers or lowers and a...
Looks nice, i love the way its setup. any huge change in pinion with such a short wishbone and longer lower bars? you should toss up a picture...
yeah i think it looks cooler to shorten the bed then make the frame longer to keep the long bed, laying running boards is a must. you should toss...
I will definately post and Pm people as necessary. Im still waiting to hear back about this truck as of now so who knows where i'll end up ha
Thanks, I just found the thread kustombuilder did about moving the suspension back on an s10 frame to work with a 50s truck and i was very...
SO... how would this work on a 50s chevy pickup? I found a truck I like and MAY possibly buy (we'll see) and im not against using the stock frame...
damn dude i didnt even know you were on here. PM me some pics of that chevy either on here or s10f
I think the s10 front clip would be a great idea because theres a lot more suspension options if you wanna put it on air, if thats what you want....
i'm still keeping an eye out for one but i'm just kinda trying to be more patient and i'm gonna wait to buy one because i don't want to buy a car...
Yeah i put my frame for sale so if it sells soon i'll find myself a decent chevy. you're right, i got very excited and didn't think about all the...
its basically how many bars or links in a suspension, a 4 link would be your typical 4 bar design whether it be parallel bars or triangulated, 2...
Yeah let me know, thatd be great. i dont know how much theyre asking but i can't afford to spend all my money on a project.
its not that i dont like them or anything, its just not what id rather own. anyone know of any 2 doors for sale in the midwest? preferrably not...
i dont mean cut it to the doors, i mean maybe a little like a quarter of an inch if any at all.
haha first i gotta get rid of the frame i have, and in my opinion fast backs arent that cool.
Yeah I see exactly what your getting into, what i wanna do is buy the frame and build a rolling chassis for a car and make it clean and nice and...
hmm maybe it would save headaches and be a lot more simple to start with a stock frame, and i don't mean that with a hardass attitude but i think...
how far back does the motor have to sit from where it does now? I think as long as i get the frame dimensions right and set then when it comes...
why would i go buy a 4 door parts car just for the measurements?
damn kustom, i dont even know where to start. i know im making it sound harder than i want it too be. i just dont wanna get let down again and...
im gonna mount the suspension and motor and then build the body around it with a whole new floor and firewall if needed. its gonna lay the rockers...
well i think i'll be able to make the five link work and i can put the cell in the trunk along with an air tank or two which could also be mounted...
how cant you run the s10 gas tank? it mounts under where the front seat would be. the only other option is to run a forward 4 link with the bags...
Well this has been buggin me all day so does anyone have any other opinions or ideas? i guess all i pretty much want is to build a great air ride...
