The Jalopy Journal
See pic above, running a full hood for that reason. My buddies and I spectated twice and that was one of the things we noted from the sidelines.
Another good point. I’m already planning for there to be sand coming out of every nook and cranny of the thing for the rest of my life…
Great point. I think we’re good there but it doesn’t hurt to double check.
You’re more or less required to, yeah. We could probably go up a size or two and be within the rules, but not enough to make a big difference....
I’ve been there a couple times as a spectator, this will be the first time running there. I checked earlier, the car has just under 6” at the...
Beach, yeah. It looks smooth, but especially at the starting line, things get pretty torn up. Very few cars seem to start without spinning… I’m...
Question for anyone who has run a car on the sand: how much ground clearance is enough? The grille shell on my car hangs a little low and I'm...
I am. I’d say they’re about the right size if your car is lowered any. The ETs in my pics below are 15x7 standard offset, the chrome reverse are...
Unfortunately I don’t have an answer to your question. I’m not sure why there would be a cap in there at all though? The wire that runs up to the...
Brand new, ordered these and had them on the shelf for a while before I discovered that they didn’t have enough drop in them for my project. These...
What you see is what you get. Manufacturer unknown. I’ve had these hanging on the wall for years now and haven’t come up with anything to out them...
Need cleaned up, but look to be in nice shape. Some clodhopper painted them orange before I got them. $100 +the ride. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
I’m curious what you figure out here. I’ve been contemplating the same thing. I haven’t done a lot of research, but I didn’t come up with anything...
I haven’t been in a few years, but if you ca swing it, I’d recommend the Hershey swap meet a week later instead.
My guess is you're going to get all kinds of answers to this one based on people's own experiences. If you're looking for simplest and we're...
Perfect! Thanks!
I can't measure (I'm nowhere near my car) at the moment and need to place a parts order, do any of you guys know for sure what size the line is...
I understand how core charges work, that's still a large chunk of change.
$500 core charge. Wowza!
I wanted to post an update on this. I ended up getting my stuff from Tee Bird Products. I did this for a couple reasons, not the least of which is...
It's been a couple of years, but I remember both the shaft and the adapter having a flat to register the wheel the right way. The issue I ran into...
Random thing, but in recent years I've been burnt more than once with a correct part number on the box and the wrong part in the box. Just food...
I got these pulled apart today. Somehow, miraculously it doesn't seem like I broke any of them so I may have dodged a bullet.
Totally my luck. Thanks for the effort regardless. If anyone out there has some of these, please let me know...
Ahh ok. I ran out of time last night to investigate this. Do you remember offhand who sells these clips or what they're called by chance?...
Pretty sure Mac's sells those too...
Those are the ones alright. So you just pinch those clips together and pull from the back huh?
Pretty sure I replaced those pins on mine with allen head cap screws when I was running the stock leafs. In my case, I did it because one of the...
So I'm getting ready to repaint the interior garnish in my 55 Fairlane, it's been repainted a couple of times before I got the car and it looks...
Way ahead of you. That's actually what's forcing the issue currently.
