The Jalopy Journal
Night Security. Watching your ride while you sleep. [IMG]
Loud pipes do save lives. I've been riding motorcycles for almost two decades, street legal. I've had quiet exhaust, moderately loud exhaust,...
One thing that was not mentioned. This Roadster has no windshield or top either. So basically it's like riding a motorcycle with four wheels....
This a a really cool build! What engine are you using?
That is pretty much my exact story. I wanted a motorized bicycle when I was younger. Then I turned 15 and got a dirt bike, then motorcycles, then...
Here's my current design. All 1963 and older Schwinn parts. 1952 Monark front end. Vintage atom drum brake. I'm trying to run a 97cc flathead,...
Here's my survivor. 1931 Roadster. Pretty close to the same way I found it. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Here's my cyclecar. I drive this thing to work. I get over a 100 miles to the gallon. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
I had the honor of riding from Milwaukee with some of the Cheaters. I have a crappy camera, but here are a few good ones. Thanks for letting me...
Great pictures Jack. The trip is still etched in my mind. No time for work this morning.
Not a highboy, but everything else applies to my lowboy 31. [IMG] [IMG]
Bend a 90 degree return or hook on the inner solid wire cable. Drill a .060" dia hole in your choke arm. Put the return or hook on the solid...
I like the way this guy thinks. I thought I was the only guy building crazy stuff in my garage out of old junk. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
This is great topic. I've been designing and building the attached three legged dog speed cart. Right now it weighs less than 40lbs. I've coasted...
Sounds like exactly what I went though when I re-built my Strombergs. I was told by numerous persons that it's a snap. I spent two weeks going...
Without getting too technical I reccomend 6061-T6. It machines great and it's readily used in motorcycle, automotive, and aircraft application. I...
Is it only Tuesday? This is the longest week ever! Get me out of my 8-5 cage and get to Cheaterama 10! PBRMEASAPLIKENOW [IMG]
I heard there's a free PBR flame spewing contest this year! [IMG]
I'm looking forward to it. No ticket for me this year! [IMG]
Now I dig that look. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
More shots of my shop, cave, bar, lounge, garage. Cold beer for everyone! [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
My 31 Roadster with a 33 truck grill. [IMG]
Here's my 1939 Flathead. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
This is great stuff. I thought I was the only guy that uses SolidWorks to create car parts and assemblies from time to time. Here's my latest...
This would be a pretty simple part if it weren't for the bends. That's a really tight bend radius for .750" stock. It would almost have to be drop...
I found that reaming the bushings, in series, to the Ford specified .814" I.D. was the perfect gliding / sliding fit. To do do it right takes...
Here's my man cave, shop, lounge, getaway. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
The bushings from Mac's may be $4.00, but they still need to be reamed concentric, in series, after being pressed in place. The I.D. of the Mac's...
I've had more than a few PMs about this, so I thought I'd provide an update. The adjustable reamer you want to buy is Chadwick & Trefethen Inc.,...
Hey, what about the Transformers H2 Hummer with the 40" green anodized rims? I almost spewed my "large" $7.00 beer on that. I still enjoyed the...
