I haven’t done it yet, but I’m planning to sleeve the t170 retainer and run the old style Ford throwout bearing.
Bump. Surely someone on here knows who owns this car.
Very nice. Clean looking car. I like the sound of where you’re headed with it. I’m a fan of the black wheels and caps.
Funny, I just caught that video last week. Very interesting and Tommy Lee Byrd is a really nice guy.
Thanks for the heads up. I just got the latest issue after the merging of the magazines and I may do the same.
Man, that sure looks and acts a lot like the CRE industrial epoxy. The CRE goes 1:1 and I’ll usually give it a dash of acetone to help it spray...
That’s awesome!

Well we’re all eager to see what lies in the remaining 90%. This is good stuff.
I didn’t see any cars in the Hop Up article matching any of the cars in your pics, so it was most likely a different meet. I’ll keep looking...
Looks like Tom Cobbs was there also. [ATTACH]
Here’s some coverage of El Mirage from Hop Up 1951. [ATTACH] The mountains definitely match.
Thanks. It’s a steel car. I pulled that pic from some coverage of The Gathering at The Roc last fall. I’d like to talk to the owner to see if...
Thanks. Will do.
[ATTACH] I’ve been seriously thinking about chopping my 39 Convertible and this car really trips my trigger. Wondering if a HAMB’er owns it....
Looks like it went on pretty good. It’s been a long time since I’ve used any polyester high build, but I have an older SATA with a 2.4 tip that...
Yessiree, that looks much better.
I’ll second that. Quick service and very reasonably priced.
Nice job. I missed the original thread of your process, but went back and read it. Very clever save I must say. It came out great.
I was hoping you were going to solve 35 across as OTIS. As in “Hot Rod Otis”[ATTACH]
Darryl said in the video that it was an insulation product, so I did some looking around, and found a product from Owens Corning called Foamglas....
They actually seal really well and will adapt their shape to a slightly irregular diameter if that happens to be the case. I have used them on off...
Man, those are perfect.
Great shots man! Thanks for the coverage.
PC-7 is some good stuff.
In my .02 worth opinion, I’m picking the RadRides 36. Their details are always over the top. Not many could pull off re proportioning a post 34...
Looks great!
[ATTACH] That’s my Dad on the right. His Caddy on the left, and his old dirt track car in the doorway. Somewhere around 1952 I think.
Absolutely. lol
As for the interior color, about ten years ago a neighbor who dabbled in old cars found a completely original, untouched 53 Buick two door hardtop...
