I've spent the better part of two days now doing my best searching for it and I'm crying uncle. Help a brother out please? There's a build thread...
I gave Ron a shout yesterday- yep, he said he's got a jig set up for using the Advance Design truck spindles that takes into account the...
I am a certified welder, that's why I'm not going to do it. Again- does anyone know of any source for a tube axle that has camber built into it...
Does anyone make a tube axle specifically designed to mount the Chevy Advanced Design truck spindle? I was given a complete front suspension...
hah, good idea with the plywood- I'll take it down a notch and just paint some cut-out cardboard. I'd like to have the real deal but shipping up...
I'm doing a '63 with a '51 Chev truck frontend and 15x4.5 rims and can't decide on whether to use the 5.60 x 15 or use 205/70/15 or 215/75/15....
I'm special. I searched the entire thread and couldn't find it- what front wheel diameter/width and tire size are you using?
That's pretty much it- are there any HAMB dealers who sell Rocket wheels? thanks
Another question- what's the best way to get steering? This seems like a good idea to at least get it into tierods-...
The axles are 57" drum face to drum face, which to me isn't all that bad- the Falcon fenders are approximately 60" outside at the sheetmetal. So...
The main thing I'm wondering about is track width.
I've recently found a '51 Chevy truck front end that's mostly complete- would this be too wide to fit under a 1963 Ford Falcon? The spring perch...
Speedway has their complete 46" disc brake straight axle kits listed as on backorder. I'll call them in the morning to find out how long it'll...
Paco- that blue masking tape works really well for purging also. It doesn't leave any residue when you pull it off either, so if you're going to...
This is too much- [IMG]
stainless steel choreboy potscrubbers work. Check the grocery store.
No problems with my local Airgas or Air Liquide, they both fill my tanks no problems. They do exchange on my little CO2 keg tank though.
I'm in. Got a ways to go, but I was planning on buying a pair off you anyways. [IMG] It's a pile of parts that some day will be a '32 Sedan,...
Figured I'd resurrect this thread on account of all the global warming that's happening down on the East Coast lately... A heater isn't just for...
-48° ambient this morning here in Deadhorse. But high twenties down on the Gulf Coast of Alaska where I live. Can't beat the summers up here and...
Man, there are some bitter motherfuckers on this thread! And about welding- on a hot rod forum? hahahahahahaaaa! Fun-NAY! In my misspent youth...
Yep, same thing- like I said it's been forever since I checked prices but when I used to buy it, it was cheaper from the grocery store. Just be...
You might look into using Chore Boy scouring pads. I don't recall them being all that expensive (especially when compared to fiberglass sold for...
Milwaukee Portaband deep cut.
Shrike, anyone? HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA.
Tires all look round when they're rolling. If you dig having some fat stripper snail-track your paint for an OSR photo shoot, go for the bias. If...
No chop- But it's screaming to get Uncertain-T'd!!! [IMG]
Another thing- For those of you running businesses, you had better make sure that all respirators are stored in rigid sealable containers. An...
What everyone else has said, ditto. Also, rather than a bag, get a large Tupperware or other airtight plastic food container and store the mask...
