I would have that in my garage today for $1500. Seems like anything close to this in Las Vegas is a minimum $7500. People around here are real...
Thanks for the pics of the article. Amazing what the owner accomplished, all the while still driving the car back and forth to work. Knowing more...
Found it http://www.jalopyjournal.com/?p=1962 It looks like the car will be displayed at the Detroit Autorama next month....
Hello all. I took a bunch of photos of a really neat custom at a car show in about 2002. I thought I lost the photos on a hard drive crash, but I...
Looks pretty nice. :) I don't know much about really old cars, but how does the ignition work on these? I don't see a distributor, but I do see...
I would lay this thing down by the fire and make sweet love to it. 1931 V16 Miller [IMG]
I went last Feb and it was awesome. I've always wanted to go, so when the opportunity came along I jumped on it. Everything about the museum is...
A couple people have pm'ed me asking how to get the iTunes feed for the entire book. If you look down in the middle of the page, you'll see the...
Thanks for chiming in. Oil is a pretty hotly debated topic, so it's nice to hear real world experiences. I for one think modern synthetics are...
I would argue that Fangio was the best ever. He raced in a time when several drivers a year were killed. No seat belts and polo helmets, hows that...
Wow, thanks! If you have iTunes, you can get the RSS feed then quickly and easily download the whole audiobook.
A radiator shop can easily fix that. It's a fairly common repair they do
What year rotors did you use? What bearings? I've been casually looking to see if anybody has ever done this, and the boilerplate answer is to buy...
It looks like two different people filled out that inspection sheet. One did the check marks and the other did the comments
This thread made me think of this car: [IMG] http://racetorations.com/copper.htm
I put down an entire 33lb spool of 309 ss today. Probably 110 outside and 125 inside? After awhile, you get used to it.
What about like this? You don't need the Webers, but the valve covers are nice. I think I bought them new for <$50, then modified them with the...
There are 2 types of his books. The cheap one is paperback and has fewer pictures. The pricier one is a 3 book set with more photos, etc. Same...
I used a big press and it worked great
I like the looks of old Ferrari wiring, Like this TR59 replica, so I'm on my own. Don't this just look swell?? [IMG]
Touché my friend. Maybe that will be the way around all this, have an engineer review your plans. Or do like others have said. When asked if you...
As has been noted, It doesn't say certified in what. If you do the mig 1G test, I doubt a state inspector will even know what that is. The...
Great tech thread! I always wondered how this happens, nice to see it in pics. What kind of sewing machine do you have? Would a normal run of the...
A friend of mine worked for Joe Pisano for about 30 years. I'll try to look through what he has and see if he has anything interesting.
I had a 200 in a 66 Mustang that would not die. It had so little compression that I couldn't park it in gear on a hill; it would just roll...
I was just looking for this data a week ago! I was wondering how cool it would look to have a 200 in a T. It looks like it's only about 2" longer...
Not to hijack your thread, but I got a few more I took: Viva Las Vegas Photos
Last time I was in a Pep Boys, it was wall to wall Chinese garbage. They seem to push cheap Chinese stereos and ATV's a lot. I can't imagine their...
Ammeters are the way to go. I hear horror stories all the time about fires, but I've never actually laid eyes on a car that burned up because of...
