Thanks for posting this.
I saw a show on You Tube where they took the chrome to a plater, and stopped after the copper application. It was for a “patina” paint job on a...
I ended up getting a cheap Chicago Electric (harbor freight) 170 MIG. I paid $100 for it from Facebook marketplace. It uses flux core or gas, 220...
Thanks guys. Yeah there wasn’t anything there, it just slides in and out.
Any other means of seeing this? You Tube?
Just a registration and plates. According to the title guy, I can get a legal PA title, from a Vermont registration. Check out “Vermont Bill of...
Man that’s Purdy! Those prices are why I’m gonna hafta paint mine.
The VIN was checked for salvage title and whether it was ever reported stolen. I paid the registration fee based on the NADA value of the car, and...
My car was a barn find, sitting since 1969. No one knew where the title was. I checked online and found the Vermont “Bill of Sale” process for...
. Do you need to wash that concrete etcher off first, before painting or applying any type of encapsulator?
That’s okay Keith. I truly appreciate you responding to the post. I’m new to building a car, so need all the help I can get.
Ooh.... That battleship grey is cool.
What rust stopping product do you use? Spray-on, brush-on...cheap, pricey...what do you prefer?
Thank you both! I will check them out.
I need a single groove pulley harmonic balancer for my ‘53 Customline. I’ve got the one year only 215 c.i. Inline 6. I know a 223 c.i. will work...
I am used to using a Millermatic MIG at work that has the gas.
Oh I posted before I saw Dos Cinco’s post. Now I get it.
Messy? How so?
This is more in my price range. Thanks.
I need to purchase a MIG welder, just for working on the Ford. Panel patches, new floorboards, rockers.....etc. I need a CHEAP, but good enough...
Did the blue lights in the taillights, mean something specific “back in the day”? A certain car club maybe? Or was it was just “something to do”,...
Thanks! You guys rock. I just recently joined here, and everyone is so nice and helpful.
Standard thread? I’d hate to find out the reason it won’t budge, is because it’s reverse thread! Lol. She sure is froze tight. Maybe try the heat...
Yes it is! Nice ride.
So to remove them, you just drill out the old spot welds?
This is a “Newb” question, as I‘ve never built a car before. How do these attach to the car? Are they welded to the floor pan?
I was staring at my horribly rusted bumpers, wondering how nice it would be to afford to re-chrome them. Because of the cost issue, I know I’ll...
Hey Danman, Does this include the 1953 215 inline six? What about trans repair, drive train, suspension and electrical stuff?
Will the blow by tube, that hangs down on the rear driver side of the block, come out when you remove that one bolt at the top? Is there an O-ring...
Hey Guys: So my car doesn't have a heater blower motor under the hood. IMG_20210310_173547.jpg Instead I have this: IMG_20210310_173948.jpg I'm...
