The Jalopy Journal
Hopefully I'm back as well. I just recently traded the COE in my avatar on a 58 Brookwood that's almost ready to drive, and I've added two 48 GM...
I've pretty much been off of this page for reasons that even I don't understand. It was great to go back through this and see / read your...
Because life has intruded in a major way I haven't checked in here in way to long. Jake, this build is awesome! I've got two 48 Chevy COE's under...
I know I'm late to the party on this but it never occurred to me that a streer clear could be used anywhere but on the firewall. I'm having a "why...
Last year I had COE GMC grill, and front and rear car bumpers rechromed for $5000. The other estimate on the same work was $7600.
That very well be my best option.
I'm collecting parts to get started on my 51 GMC and I'm hoping to find a repop chrome grill and surround. I believe the 4 bar grill is the same...
Isn't the roadster done? Are you about to start moving on this or the outbuilding?
Love it! Congratulations!
Very sorry to hear about your Mom. That's a terrible disease. I lost my 92 year old dad to it a little over a year ago and my 93 year old mom is...
[IMG] Dang Rob, you were 15 minutes from me! If you come back this way let me know.
Thanks vintage, I might check on that or at least see if he can send some pictures. I don't need a 3rd unfinished COE right now -- but I don't...
daddio, I didn't think about it but you're right, that is damned funny. At those prices I can barely get the sub I take to the submarine races...
Thanks guys! Yes, the price went from $1500-$7500. To say I was shocked would be an understatement.
About six weeks ago I shipped grill and bumper to a reputable company for rechroming. They contacted me based on photos someone showed them and...
Very sorry to hear this.
Exactly which Chevy Van?
That looks great!
Looking great!
Funny thing. When I look at your pictures above there's a picture of my COE sitting next to my shop but when I click on it to open it up it shows...
It almost wouldn't be a Dodge if the dash wasn't a mess and the tranny didn't need work. ;-) the 1st thing I would do is make sure the "Killer...
That donor Dodge is awesome! I'd love to find something like that just to have a spare truck for the dirty farm work.
You clearly have the talent and know how to make the grill surround yourself. My guess is that even if nobody else knew it was plastic it would...
Wow, that is just awesome, and non-trailer queen to boot. Way to go!
That truck is just going to be too cool. Love it! The oval grill trucks are my favorites, and I really like the curved bars on yours.
Daddio, PM me an email address or number to text the pics to. I've got some other shots that aren't much better on my phone but at least they are...
I'll have to look that show up. It sounds like I'd love it -- not that I don't love the show anyway. It really is a weirdly fine balancing act...
Wow Rob, it almost sounds like we were separated at birth! Amazingly small world...
I sure thought I replied to daddio's pist with the yellow truck. I've seen pics of the truck and remember it being for sale, but I sure didn't...
Last ones from the day.
