Ah, very cool! Thanks for that info. We lived in that house from about '76 through '83. I don't remember my dad mentioning that Rick worked for...
For no apparent reason, the Rigert Bros popped into my head today. Specifically, their super low, maroon with gold anodized wheels, Nova. This...
Would you want to sell it?
What carbs did you use?
Hudson48, that's a beautiful roadster. When you say..."regular 15inch wheels Ford bolt pattern", which Ford wheels are you referring to? Not to...
Thanks 325w! I have a set of aftermarket "smoothie" wheels that are 5.5" wide and have the backspacing I need (can't remember what it is off the...
I'm sure this has been asked before but I just couldn't find it. Besides actual 56-57 Lincoln Premiere wheels, what wheels allow those caps to...
Back to the top for this one!
Ding, ding and one more big fat DING!!! I agree with this 100%. I was a mini-trucker and Cal-Look Vdubber too (still like a lot of these cars). I...
Sorry guys, I made a mistake here. I misread the quote. The quote reads: Hubs - 2 @ $750 4 add $225 each 8 add $190 each 12 add $175 each The...
Looking to have a small run of custom hubs made (typical hub with a flange to hold a rotor, five holes for the studs, a snout on each end to hold...
Hey, hey Mark! How are you! Yeah, been a looong time! The wheels in the photo are the original wheels that I ran when I first finished the...

Yep, Pat Barnhart! I spent a lot of time in that car with Pat and his buddy Clifford Campbell (the first guy that I know of that built a...
Man, I just found out about this. My last memory of Terry was of him with his hand on my shoulder consoling me on the loss of my dad. Both great...
I think that they made them for other application too. I seem to remember seeing one for a Studebaker a long time ago. They are very cool!

Good point PeeVee. Reducers are made up of a variety of solvents, some of which are designed to evaporate immediately as the liquid exits the gun...
Solvent popping is not to be confused with fisheyes. They are two very distinct problems and each has their own fix. Solvent popping is caused...
Another real Ed Roth signature, just for comparisons sake. [IMG]
...and clean up that dump!!! Is the red "racer tape" your version of a canvas body? Lot faster to hang than fabric and dope I 'spose! You really...
HOLY SHIT, TIM! Congratulations! I think I had a smile as big as yours just watching the video. The only thing that could have been better is if...
Wow, John! I never like to see honest, upstanding guys in a situation like this. So, do you think that the wheels are just work hardening or ?
Cool! Er, I mean not cool! Closing up the gaps around the radiator is how I solved the cooling issues my '41 Ford had. That AND the shroud made...
I have no idea what it's from, but I ended up with two of them. One went into the truck! [img]
You know, if I bring this... [img] ...we could have quite a bonfire!
Looks like it was two-toned with some sort of trim in between as well. Very unusual!
Hey, that's neat! Who made that intake setup? I really like the split inlet/outlet carb riser.
