Have you considered running a Bantam radiator?
Four years goes by fast. This project has been shelved while I try to clean up a number of other projects that I no longer need. While the dolly...
A few more photos of the shifter. Thank you Heathen.
Interesting. Thank you. Do you have any photos of yours? The levers on the trans look heavily modified.
I haven’t driven the car. The motor is stuck. I am working on getting the driveline out. I probably wont use the shifter because the packaging...
Has anyone ever seen one of these before? https://vault.si.com/.amp/vault/1961/04/24/the-car-cult-from-rumpsville
Nice car! What's its story?
While we're talking about aluminum cylinder heads, does anyone know anything about the different iterations of Edmunds parts for cadillacs? I...
Thank you for all of your responses. No, it is no longer in a Cadillac. It was used for repowering a hot rod in the late 50’s. However, the...
I am working on figuring out as much as I can about an old cadillac engine before I tear into it. The engine is a flathead 322-346 from a Cadillac...
I recently bought a hot rod built in the 50's that has been sitting dormant since about 1960. It is going to be a bit before I get it home and...
Any updates? I used WD40 after reading many threads here that made it seem as though it and Gibbs were fairly equivalent. On the bright side, my...
I appreciate your offer and will definitely consider it. Today, something elusive followed me home. A person on facebook was actually selling a...
Where are they today?
Any updates?
Sometimes, you need to take a bit of time away from a project to really figure out where you are going with it. If you haven't noticed, I have...
It's really hard to believe that over a year has gone by since my last post on this build. It's equally hard to believe how much time has elapsed...
This is an odd one. Up for sale is my 1961 Mercury Comet S-22. This car started out as a 170 cubic inch with an automatic transmission and the...
I thought I had posted since September, however, I guess not. This post is more of an update than actual description of progress. A few bumps in...
BuiltFerComfort - You make some good points. Also, the Sopwith Camel biplane lead to quite an enjoyable read. I haven't gotten to do anything...
Do you know who owns this car?
I was going to hold off on posting photos and information regarding my recent efforts in the event that it doesn't work out. However, that line...
Hi Peanut, I had brought the piece to a local steel works which is usually very helpful. I figured that if anyone could do it, it would be them....
I have some heavy paper, thin plywood, a sample piece of 2"x1"x.125" rectangular tubing. I was going to go for the 3/8" wall tubing, but the...
My sights are primarily set on the body of the Sportsman at this point. Before I can start building the wood body, I need to get the basic steel...
Okay, so more than three months have passed and a whole lot of nothing has actually happened on this project, at least with regard to physical...
It's hard to believe that over a month has passed and I have posted no progress on the Bantam. Then again, there hasn't been much progress to...
I finally got up the nerve to try my 110v welder. With the one rotted rocker, I couldn't completely mount the body onto the frame. The weld job...
