The Jalopy Journal
Post #5 by Crazy Steve on this 5 year old wiring thread helped me find a wiring mistake I made. The "forum search" sure comes in handy at times....
Thanks guys for the helpful info.
I need help on what bump stop I can purchase for the rear of my '32. I saw photos of a set offered by "Steve Sumstine" but there was no contact...
As "57Joe" stated, such a great thread by Crazy Steve. A favorite read of mine. It is just loaded with helpful info. Thanks
Crazy Steve, my aftermarket harness fuse panel uses one 10-gauge feeder wire from the starter post. A 50-amp maxi fuse is to be installed in this...
After having purchased a universal 12 circuit harness, then reading through these many posts, I can't understand how my fuse panel can be powered...
Great work! Well thought out, neat and clean.
Wow! Now that had to be pretty violent when it let go! What type of pinion support was in this case?
They look great mounted there.
Lol! That'l do.
This little upgrade looks to be turning into a money pit. The center section is just the beginning of the expenses, lol. Once again, Greg gave...
Greg is correct. The aluminum case lessens unsprung weight. The rear coilovers have such limited travel, I thought reducing weight here might give...
The aluminum case is something I have wanted for a good while. I want to change gear ratio, so now is my best chance to justify the added expense....
You have a great build going. I too have battled cancer and have returned to my deuce project. Hang in there.
I don't think I would need a through bolt HP case. I'm not familiar with "John's". Just trying to cut down on sprung weight and improve on looks.
I am thinking of buying an aluminum third member case for a street rod build, but know nothing about what brands are out there. Can some of you...
Whew! Biting my lip and shaking my head. I just don't understand post such as #14. Unfortunate! I am helping a friend with a very similar build to...
The dish piston with a 62 or 64cc chamber should work well. I remember the 292 casting head well. I was hoping you didn't have flat top pistons....
Dave, your latch setup looks great. I've got to pass that along to son in law. He also plans to run the four piece hood without side panels....
Just read through the entire thread and found myself shaking my head again at negative comments made by a very few. Geez guys, you gotta get a...
Your fiberglass and wood work is really nice. My son in law is building an N & N fiberglass 32 3 window. We need to do some glass work, and your...
Bump steer can't be corrected with lower control arm location. Lower control arm location (along with upper arm location) determines if camber...
Very nice build. Have enjoyed your build photos. Am hoping there are more you can post. Thanks for posting these.
Later model Ford 10" drums will work, but will need the register hole adapters mentioned earlier that are inexpensive. They beat the heck out of...
From bad to really bad. My older brother who lives in Sour Lake, was just given four to six months to live (dying from lung cancer) and now has...
I would like to use a sheet metal insert with the original top insert material over it for my 32 5 window. Is there a late model car roof that...
Thoughts and prayers go out to family and his friends. Losses such as this leave a wound that only the fond memories can heal. So sorry for your...
LOL!
Just a suggestion from my experience at building my 56. Set the frame at the ride height you want and the rear suspension should be loaded to get...
Self racing in Durant Oklahoma has huge experience with the 250/292 engine built for drag racing. Their cylinder head work on this head is as good...
