You are definitely going to need a donor cab. That rear window opening is huge compared to stock opening. Not that hard to find, Ford made a lot...
My wife and I drove to Minnesota and back, from Miami, in 4 days, to pick up my 35 Ford pickup. Talk about memories!
I watched all those videos also, and had to have one. But, to be honest, I wasn't too impressed by it. You will end up spending a heck of a lot...
Personally, I like it, but as everyone else has suggested, the grill needs to be changed/modified to make it work. I look at my 35 Ford pickup,...
I bought the piece from rotten Leonard, worked out well, but I did hubs, wouldn't do it on a cast wheel. I think that having the holes on the rim...
All late 90's Explorers with the 5.0 V8 had 8.8 posi disc brake rears3.73 and 4.10 ratios were very common in these rears.
Have you ever heard of a product called All Metal? Goes on like bondo supposed to be pretty durable.
Thanks for bringing it back up, or I would have never been it. Loved the writing style, very smooth, almost non stop.
That makes a lot of sense, that's the main problem I've been having a hard time wrapping my mind around. That would take care of the issue with...
Hey..... No more shrinking! I've already shrunk from 6' 2" to 6' 1" in my time on this planet.:)
I understand the concept, just wanted to see if anyone has actually done this, and if so, pictures showing where they cut on the cowl. There are...
Ok, I'm in the process of cutting up pictures and taping them together. I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to need to stretch the frame...
All I can say is Fugly!
I like the idea of spreading out the stretch, but I've never seen a cowl extended or stretched. Anyone have some pics of this?
The overlap/splice on the door looks like it would make the joint much stronger, I like that idea.
I believe the blue truck is actually a fiberglass body, and if so, is on a Ranger frame. I definitely do not want that rear opera window! I'm...
So, I have an extra cab and doors for my 35 Ford pickup, and I have come to the conclusion that I'm going to have to use pieces from them to...
I beg to differ with you, I think a post like this could save someone from losing hard earned money. I would even consider reading this thread as...
I'm rather partial to my Esab. It's nice knowing i have the ability to cut through 1 3/4" steel, even though I'll probably never have the need to...
Swimming pool repairs and renovation, mainly high end, Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, etc.
Wow, all I can say is, I'm jealous!
Huh, last time I checked, there were no night classes, daytime classes, or any welding classes available unless you were signing up for long term...
Carolina customs, rocky hinge company, careful though, you're heading into street rod territory there.:eek:
:D Big Grin :) Smile o_OEr....What? They all do have meanings, ya know! :D
Now that's what I wanted to hear, looks like that is the route I'm going to attempt. I've read that people are welding the tube to the housing...
Sorry to go off on you. Might I suggest a different emoji that better conveys the tongue in cheek aspect of your reply? Karl
Uhm, where do you get rat rods from? My 35 Ford pickup is far from being a "rat rod". I made what I thought was a humorous post about the kind of...
2 7/8" ? Any body know how much tube is inside the housing from the factory?
Anybody have any idea how much that red interior would cost nowadays? 10K? 15K?
