Here’s an Upholstery Thread that is great for questions, answers and projects…...
Next to impossible to do. Original tuck strips have saw tooth teeth on the backside to grab the headliner. I have no idea how it could be unhooked.
Here they are… [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
That’s cool. Can you share the app?
Thanks Moose! I like it. That’s how it’ll run the first summer.
This is what replaced the Ranchero. I’ve been personalizing it and this is its current state. Right now I’m fixing some leaks. Could someone drop...
Haha. Yup. Got it on a Tuesday, drove it 40 miles round trip to meet some car buddys for lunch on Wednesday and started tearing it apart the next...
The contours are similar, but not near deep enough so it would require quite a bit of slicing and dicing and I got those two ends with the car so...
Yes. All of those will work, but to use them the 56 splash apron has to be trimmed down closer to the car and the corner of the quarter panels has...
Thank you. Good luck.
The first pic shows what it looks like with the conny kit and all related parts removed. I put the bolts back in to fill the holes and not get...
So I had to show what we got…we’ve always wanted a baby bird so I found a 1956 TBird that had been concours restored and finished in 1995 with...
Well…I put a bunch of enjoyable miles on the Ranchero the past four summers, but it was time for something different. There was a guy that had...
ok. Yes I did have to do that on the 49. Thanks.
Not sure what you mean by cut the rubber stops in half. I’m putting them in a 56 TBird. I didn’t do anything special putting them in a 49 sedan.
Thanks for the info. I see they are made in Canada. Summit is out of stock, but Amazon has them for $60 and some change. For everyone’s info...
I sold the Ranchero a month ago (it was time) and bought a 56. We’ve always wanted one. First two pics are the day I got it and last three...
I paid $110 5 years ago for Moog. Now they are $150-200. Saw the Apremiums on Amazon. Thanks for the info.
Has anyone used A premium coil springs to lower an old Ford front? There's a big price difference now. [ATTACH]
I don’t think that’s it. Top rear edge of the roof is not the same. Thanks for thinking of it.
Thanks much Moose. This will bring a few smiles.
So here’s a crazy request…could someone put the “Aber Lunch Bunch” sticker in the lower vent window of the Tbird? Like in proportion to the car....
Finished up another patina’d Chevvy box side chair. There’s now a pair out there… [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Here it is finished from the Custom Studebaker Trucks group on FB… [ATTACH]
Just came across this thread. I have loved Model A’s most of my life. Built 3 during the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. Love the “Look”. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Looks like it’s already gone. Kind of sad.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
I'm liking it Unclebrad! Thank you. Can you raise the rear to see the whole whitewall plus an inch of black and the front to see about the whole...
Would someone remove the skirts, lower slightly all around, and add Lancer covers to this Bird? Thanks much. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Door panels I just finished for the ‘57 Ford Courier wagon I did the seats for a while back. [ATTACH]
