The Jalopy Journal
Can do, thanks. Did I see that Gene Winfield's shop joined up yesterday? Now there's a gift to the world.
So I joined up here just after I bought my 56 chevy, and thought I had something to offer everyone, like I was God's gift to hot rodding or...
For about three years my only exposure to my kind of hot rods and customs was from the stack of magazines I would religiously buy monthly. Though...
I love how they cut out all the parts where they hit something. I count at least 3 places where collision with surrounding objects was eminent....
you could weld some wings on the back of the thing, like caddy style. That should draw it out long enough to make it look right.
true, true. Sorry, they could very well be jumping on trampolines for all I care.
I often look, but hardly find good vintage photos of hot rods and customs in Mexico. It seems like such a good match up to me. I'm talking about...
I knocked off ten Russians, and a couple of Middle Easterners, watched a teen give birth, Robert Mitchum outrun the ATF in a beautiful Crown Vic,...
So I've been tinkering with photoshop for a while, and maybe you guys could help me out. How'd you take the guy out of the picture? Did you really...
The roadster is such a phenomenon as this thread displays. I mean, look at the difference between the cars with fenders, and basically the same...
That's unusual. I don't think I like it better in wood than metal. I can honestly say that wagons look cooler with wood, but that, eh, maybe.
maybe hank should have dropped this [IMG]
oh man, that one is still open, isn't it. I can't hang around for that long, I have to eat sometime. though, that thread was incredible compared...
No but it'll work on bondo for shore
Well, I know that woodies are rare, expensive, and awesome for a reason, so in that sense, yes, I know exactly what you mean.
^is that squirrel one for real? Man, that was a good commercial, good level of creativity involved.
Is that a different year, or did they fix the window? The top looks good, real kreepy.
Ya, that's what I'd be afraid of, I might just go to mexico/panama and ne'er return. Though, I'd hit up the desert. I liked Puerto Penasco, just...
Man, that is a long haul, I wasn't cut out for that kind of driving. Anyway, I guess I am a new hot rodder, but I couldn't even have been around...
Oh, man, the family. I swear that I don't have a normal person in the bunch. The rest of my parents families live in So. California, and they are...
Tacoma, right, good thing I didn't drive to portland.
I can't afford to drive to kansas, though I wish I could. But if you go to the hotrodarama in portland, I might be there. North Idaho/Eastern...
I don't plan on taking it personally, I am just here to have fun, talk to some guys who know more than me, and try to help out whenever I have the...
Do you plan on coming to Idaho soon, cause I'm not going to your garage. Besides, you probably did not get talked to like people talk to on this...
I drove my chevy this week. The weather was 70 and spotless, it was real nice. But then it snowed again, and it is like 40 right now, I can't...
I am just glad someone knows how to put a bunch of cars together at one time, it would take me a couple of years to build one from raw.
I found a guy with a field full of cars last summer, he had one of these, and the 56 chevy I bought. Both were 4 doors, the chevy had a good...
^that does look great, I tried to find those sombreros, but went with the shiny moons instead because it was faster. i'd shave the bumpers though....
oh, man a little hammer work and anything'll fit. I like the paint, it looks classic. Someguys will tell you to paint over it. I guess it depends...
That would be a good start, but there are so many hard lines up to there that could have crystallized somewhere. I thank you for your help, brake...
