I'm going to hazard a guess that its a 70-71 Mopar E body or 71 B body, most likely a '70-71 Cuda judging by the angle of the rear quarter window...
Wow, thanks for the link! The approach Hartin Bros. used was much better, starting with a FHC rather than roadster. The roof must be higher in...
That's the best explanation I've heard yet! Here are a couple pics from about 5 years ago. There was a partial roof and side walls on the shed...
After nearly 30 years of begging and pleading with my uncle, this '54 Jag is finally mine. Unfortunately, its in pretty bad shape now. I'd like...
This was a Cabriolet at one time ;) Current owner was going to rebuild to body for a rod, don't know if he followed through with it.
Hi Josh, Small world! I worked at the Packard Museum for a number of years and recall seeing the frame, axle and some loose parts in the storage...
My wife's town is near Liezen and we've been back several times over the years. Usually just in time to follow the Ennstal Classic rally. There's...
SurfCity and Christian, what part of Austria are you guys from? (Is that a Wien plate on the Merc?) My wife is from Styria...lots of trains there...
I tried mapp to shrink a dent in a fairly flat hood and found it spread the heat too far, which made the shrink less effective. Perhaps with a...
Well played ;) Those OP bodies remind me of the "antique car" shop project from junior high. The one you cut out of flat stock with tin snips and...
Have never seen heads stamped left and right either. Someone definitely put some effort into it. Someone needs to drop that into a 55 2dr post...
Calyx looks great on cast iron manifolds. Just did a set of 327 ram's horn manifolds and have about 3-4 hours of break in time. So far they have...
The 461 and 462 heads have slots with rounded ends for each pushrod, which acts as a guideplate...Unfortunately it limits p.rod diameter to 5/16"....
excellent photos, and looks like every car is one I'd want to see. Almost like a step back in time.
Carb is a Holley 650 for '66 only 327 300 and 350hp 327 motors (vette only I think) 5b2 translates to 2nd week of december 1965. Head date code...
Great story. Glad you didn't end up in Gitmo! Did they make you check the tools or were you allowed to carry on? Years ago I flew out to inspect...
Can you explain the door skins? That's a neat idea but how'd you fasten them after paint. Glue? Great color and a clean build. Like the console...
Never liked the Lokar shifters. What about a vintage hurst dual gate, or adapting a period factory floor shifter?
Another oddball - 327/300hp, 3 on the tree, 3.36 posi, and factory dash tach :D [IMG] [IMG]
Man! I've always wanted to find a stickshift squarebird. I've got a '61 Newport sedan waiting its turn at home that's a factory 361 3 speed on...
not China but sometimes India and Mexico.
I'd vote to leave the car content commingled, but try to cut down on the OT posts. Less social, more history and tech. Garage Journal is pretty...
Would love to know more about that hospital cleaning stuff, anything that kills mouse odor is a must-have!!
Have you looked into having them spun? Metal spinning is often used for round concave shapes like prop cones, etc. Might be able to get the...
Wow, neat car but for that price you'd think the dealer could address those relatively minor issues. Its frustrating to make an inspection trip...
Ironic that I was just on another forum reading posts bycorporate executives and buyers discussing the best way to source Chinese products. My...
Isn't that the truth though...how many times have you heard a seller say "Well I turned down xxxx two months ago" and he ends up selling it for...
Another vote for indian head...Permatex Hi-Tack is also a good one, but Indian Head has more "body" to it so it fills threads well. We just had a...
I pm'd you regarding cores but never received a response.
Several years ago Street Rodder did a comparison of 2 similarly built 32 roadsters, except one was IFS and the other had a straight axle...the...
