In 1984, a 1969 Red Dodge Charger Daytona with 3,876 original miles on it for $3,876. He wanted a dollar for every mile it had driven. I tried to...
One of my all time favorites. Nice find.
I cut the centers out of 1960 Imperial hub caps and made a center threaded rod to hold them onto a modified 70's Caddy wire wheel hub cap threaded...

If it is a 3spd, it has very little value. If it is a 4spd., values depend on multiple factors. It should have a metal tag riveted on the side of...
You could also read the title and see clearly what it is about and not click on it, and of course not comment on it because you didn't open it if...
Love the caddy graft. If the T-bird rear seat won't fit, they can be chopped down too. I've done it and it was pretty easy.
Stuck in a box full of old photos was really large picture of a 1932 Ford sedan. The dollar bill gives you an idea of it's size. It is on old...
It's funny as I read this, this same type of build has been kicking around in my head as well for about 2o years. In my plan however, I start with...
I've never seen these before.... .[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This is an excellent pair of 1932 Ford 20 louver hood side panels with nicely patinaed original black paint with one single red pinstripe down...
That's a friend of mine. I'm 57, so no more wives or girlfriends for me. Just FWB. I tell them that I'm the guy you hang out with while you wait...
Yes, that will be the first thing removed, even before the dirt.
It took over a month for him to dig it out and even then I still had to move quite a bit to get it out.
What a fun day! Car looked in better shape than what I thought it would look after it's 20 year nap. It even came with a second clean 32 ford...

Well it may only be a 1/4 of a Caddy, but it probably weighs as much as 5/8 of a Honda.
I would like to see you get it and just start it and see where it goes. Can't be any worse and the change might be a drastic improvement. I kind...
Well, tomorrow is the big day it sees sunlight for two decades. The plan is to push it out and slide it on the trailer. It's always a fun day...
T-buckets can be very cool and can have history. This one of my former cars from Merced California back in the 70's. I picked it up about 6 years...
I'm not trying to "work" the guy. He has to move a good distance away and has to clear out his whole stash. So it is a situation that works out...
The 56 is spread out all over the place and it will take more time and effort to retrieve it, but yes, I plan on digging that one out too. From...
No seat belts, no roll bars, no crash protections and rolling that fast on oiled uneven wood boards. Man those guys had balls back then. I also...
It has a Corvair style independent front suspension. Fortunately it was a bolt in unit so the original frame is not messed up and easily...
Wow. Cool find. Cool story. Cool HAMB history connection.
The car was built a few times over the years, but the last time was early 80's when the scallops were added as you can see. He is in his late...
