I know that feeling of trying to work on something between school and work. At least you're making regular progress! I've seen a number of stock...
Thanks for the tips! I've been following your 261 build for a while now and I'm enjoying it. Hi there! I was looking at the aluminum radiator...
Thanks for your feedback guys. EFI is the biggest "maybe" on my list and I don't intend to do it if I can't drop on a single-barrel kit that...
Hi guys, I had a few questions regarding modifications in regards to reliability. I've got a 235 straight 6 out of a 1954 Chevrolet car in my 52...
Looking good!
As for my 52 Special, the only work I did was crawling into the trunk so that I could finally open it. Just after getting the trunk open. [IMG]...
Time for another post. This time is like last time. I didn't really do much work on the car; I spent most of my time pulling junk cars/parts so...
Awesome! Glad to see it up and moving! Nice, are you going to do it a panel at a time or try and do the whole car in a certain period of time?...
This build is starting to get exciting - looking forward to it driving! Got any plans for what color you're going to paint it after body work?
Looking good! Nice to see it run, and I always looks forward to updates. Also, where'd you get your radiator? How well did it fit into the stock...
As it stands now I get to pop down once every six months between college. It was time to visit for Christmas, so of course I wanted to spend some...
I'd have offered you up a couple of my extra wheels, but they're quite a ways away from both you and I.
Looking good, I'd love to see this car move someday.
Yea, grandpa said when he got it, it had nothing on it and he pulled the radio and other parts from a Deluxe. I think he got a radio a long, long...
Getting the pedals out was a pain. Weirdest master cylinder setup I've seen personally. The little pin inside was already broken on one side. I...
Hey guys, I've been lurking around for a while, but I finally got a chance to go home and get started on my car. It's a 1952 Styleline Special...
Oh man, that brake hardware looks super nice. When I did the brakes on mine we just kinda brushed them clean and put them back. The rear end is...
Hey, was coming to check on this build. I'm excited to get working on my 52 and your thread is one of the best build threads I've found. Would...
Hey guys, I've got a few questions. Getting excited to go home and get the 52 running and I was wanting to ask a few small things I can't seem to...
Thanks guys. I was gonna pull said window out and use it temporarily. It'll be a good learning process, incase I happen to break it while...
Thanks everyone! Thank you. I like this quote because I would die if I couldn't mess with old cars. Thank you! My brother used to stay at...
Searched around and couldn't find an answer for this. Had a couple glass-related questions. My 52 Styleline has its driver side window missing....
Thanks guys. I think at this moment I'm going to spend my $11.96 and just rebuild the drums for now. I think as soon as I get it running, discs...
I checked out MP Brakes' website and I couldn't seem to find a set that was for anything in the 49-54 model year. Jegs has one set listed at $482....
It's really interesting to learn how this engine has evolved over the years. I wrote up a list of parts I might want to change out for when I go...
Hey everyone, thanks for all the info and replies! I've got a good basic understanding of the engines now. I believe I'm going to stick with the...
Thank you! It's a little confusing at first, learning where exactly each topic goes. This is one of the more strict forums I've been on. I'd...
Hello all, just now starting to post around here. I'm a younger guy but classics are my favorite. I've lurked around this place for a while, and...
