Thanks much!
Thanks irishsteve and wood remover. Here are the pics of what I've got. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
1930 Chevy truck- I want to replace the original steering box with a power steering gear box- wanting to keep it mounted on the inside/going...
I'm wanting to keep the leaf springs and i-beam on the front of my '30 Chevy truck, but also want put in new spring hangers. I've done a far...
Thanks all! Enjoy the extra time in the garage/shop!
Has anyone fabbed up a dual wiper setup for late 20's/early 30's truck cab? Overhead mounting that is. I've started thinking about possible donor...
Yeah that's about it. Started out with a Model A in 1979. Went through several different ones over the years and then life changed a bit,...
Tie it in to your television for it's power source so you can only watch said entertainment box will only when you're walking or running on the...
Might be looking ahead quite a bit but time flies when you start getting older!... or have a goal to get a ride finished for an event! :D Anybody...
That's funny. Now that you mention it, I do the same thing but never really realized it. Old habits...
Ha. Wasn't me either! :) Things were pretty tight and our kids grew up learning to drive the same hand-me-down 1990 Chevy 4-wheel drive Suburban...
We had a nice time as well. Plenty of cool cars and truck, some great music, cold beer, and.......... lots of shade! :D
I'd have to pile on with these guys. A shroud and flex fan are second to none if room and physical placement are available. If forced by radiator...
That is funny no matter what part of the country you live in. :D
I never have. But now with 2 pages of reading it makes me think about doing so in my '58. :rolleyes: Of course..... If one were to drive a circle...
I like that ride. Cool look on the back side. Seeing lots of nice looking stuff from rattle cans. Simplicity sometimes is just the ticket.
Outstanding. Can't wait to see pics of that one finished. Keep up the good work! :)
Last night and early this morning on my '30 Chevy 1 1/2 ton. Finished up stripping the frame of all the old rusted in line clamps and bolts from...
An important thing to remember: Junk is the stuff you throw away. Stuff is the junk you keep. :cool:
Glad you have you! Tons of stuff here to read and learn up on along with the same amount of opinions on different things to make you think. Enjoy!
Do any of you greater Austin area guys know of a place around close to get some custom cut flat auto glass? If not I'll spread the search.... I...
Gotta love the '58/59's! I've had my '58 for over 20 years now. I was just getting ready to think seriously about paint and.... got distracted...
That is the best looked '58 I've ever seen. The '54 grill did it. Nice build.
Glad I wasn't drinking anything. I'd a spewed it out! LOL Removed the original gauges from my '30 chevy and everything penetrating the firewall,...
I must say that I get just the opposite of some. Driving my '58 truck every day in a smaller town people are constantly waving and giving a...
I knew of a guy way, way, way back that tossed a length of 4 x 4 out in the street when someone was doing that.. Pretty much stopped that crap on...
Leveled my new project- an original 1930 flat bed truck 1 1/2 ton. Removed a good hand full of u-bolts and misc brackets along with some old...
Thanks F&J. It's neat to have that one clarification alone. (and knowledge of the Truck Spotters book on top of that).
I need to start building a bit on knowledge on the 1930 Chevy truck I just brought home. My initial search for parts found The Filling Station...
I have, for MANY years wanted a early '30's truck. (Partial to that body style because a '30 Ford 5 window couple was my first hot rod.)...
