The Jalopy Journal
Thanks for the photos. And the help on what I thought was a rain gutter/channel.
I suppose that means you didn't read the whole post. I mentioned it in the first couple sentences...
Well aware. It's my yankee vocabulary. Folks used to not be quite so literal...
See photo. Runs from B-pillar gusset to The c-pillar. This one is cut short. Also supports the center brace for the inner panel.
My problem is I have nothing to reference. No books, no drawings, nothing. I don't have a starting point to know what holes take what kind of...
All the big guys have been called. A few of them didn't even know what I was asking about. I had to inform them. Seems nobody has a hardware...
Did a search without much success. So I came looking for help from the internet garage gods. Looking for a body wood hardware kit for a 1930...
Stumbled on this from a google search. I know it's old, but very very helpful. The link provided has a great drawing to go off of. And, as of...
Hey all, got body width set finally. Passenger door now opens and closes nicely. Now time to work on drivers door. Hinges in doors, both sides,...
Found a car at a local car show finally. Got some dimensions and a few contacts local to me. Feels good to be able to get back to it.
Anyone?
Anyone in the western mass(greater Springfield) area with a stock 1930 model a tudor willing to let me take some measurements? A few more things...
Dirk, Thank you. Sadly I am down and out with the flu. Hope to get back to it this weekend. I'll post pictures with dimensions when I get back out...
Grant, Thanks so much! That's exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks Sloppy! Great idea!
Hey all, trying to get doors on my 1930 Tudor sedan. I have matching length doors, 29.25"(for a tudor), and the openings are the same size. One...
Hey all, finally got myself back to the wheel arch on drivers side. All tacked together, front of arch at about the 6” height needs a small slice...
Long time since my last post. Been getting back at it. Working on floor structure and connecting rockers to the floor structure. Also working on...
Hi all, getting a door together enough to hang so I can get everything lined up and fit on drivers side. Question for you all, how does the...
I'd like to disagree on that one. All that's needed is to actually understand how steering geometry actually works. If the steering arm coming...
Sloppy, So this is for a Jeep? Anything to keep my eye open for when rebuilding? Not sure what normal wear items should have extra attention given...
Went to a swap meet around me the other weekend. Tyrods at Stafford Speedway in CT. Picked up a set of pretty good shape 33 chevy truck...
Hey Sloppy, thanks for the dims! Once I get a few measurements on mine I'll let you know for sure!
Hey Roddering, looks awesome!
Hey Sloppy, that would be great! I appreciate the help!
Looks great! I'd do the same, but I think I'd still have to cut a big relief in my firewall. Would it fit while still using a stock gas tank? I...
My solution to a suspension travel issue. Moved the wheel well opening up about 4 1/2". Stretched the front forward to keep a decent looking arch...
Hey all, getting back to the hot rod. I'll post some update pictures tomorrow. I have begun raising the wheel well arches so my suspension clears....
Hey everyone, a lot of you have suggested running the firewall backwards to gain some room. I don't think I'll have the room for that, but could...
Working on the radiator and grill shell now. Front suspension is 95% mocked up. Need filler panels for the hairpins.
