The Jalopy Journal
I was only there for a few hours on Friday this year. Got there later than I intended, and had to leave earlier than I wanted to. There were more...

I took some on Friday. I’ll post them here later.

Finally got out for a drive today, first of the year. Passed this guy in a field off an otherwise boring bit of road between farms. Out the side...
Signed up. Check is in the mail. Looking forward,to another good run.
Yes. I have no idea how to do that right now. But I’ll look at it when the weather makes garage time possible again.
My 37 has an M2 from a ‘74 donor. When I got it, it had what were probably stock springs, with cut coils, and “oops we went to far” rubber coil...
The crossmember is widened 1 1/2”. The disc brake kit moves the wheels out an additional 1 1/2”. So the track width is 3” wider than a stock M2....
That’s basically what I’m getting at. The suspension is designed for a track width, and to have the wheels each follow the correct path through a...
I’m running the black side out, don’t care about them having whitewalls. Not stuck on the size, or brand. These are what the tire shop recommended...
This is good, and a good practice, but it assumes that the previous guy that worked on it did it correctly. You may have just repeated a previous...
It bugged me not being able to find my notes, so I looked for inner tie rod end info. I think the difference I ran in to is that all of the...
Tires are Hankook Optimo H724. P195/75R4. Installed June 2017, at 69,435, today they’re at 98,824 miles. The inner tie rods I could get were all...
If it came with an o ring, it’s designed to seal with an o ring. Use that, not the gasket.
Best way I can think of is to build a set of sacrificial zoomies. Match your real design, but in plane I coated steel. Put a bung in each one so...
I didn’t. Bought the car with it this way. I assume it was done to better the track width and wheel position in the fenders where they wanted.
I’m running the tires at 32 PSI. Max cold PSI is 35, IIRC. The steering rack is manual, it and the inner tie rod ends are a couple of years old....
The comments do not make him look bad. The pictures of the work are what is doing that.
