I've been reading over the how to build a traditional ford hot rod book as sort of a guide as well as the forums. I'm not going to be using a...
I bent the arm down first and then turned the mount up.
Took a bit longer to do than I planned as I had torch issues, also I do believe I made an error and went under the wishbones instead of over for...
Thanks a bunch everyone, going to give it a shot tomorrow. Hopefully it all goes well. :)
I've got a set of 40s for spindles on my dropped axle all set up in the garage, when I go to turn them they smack into the axle pretty fast. I've...
Here you go, one orange trailer. [IMG]
I've got my frame stripped all the way down and parts of it look like photos of the surface of the moon. Light pitting I can deal with but up...
Billetproof one day, tearing into an A the next - [IMG] I sadly think the transmission is a bit borked. :D [IMG] Whats left on the...
Trailer yes, it was held down with more than what you see in the pictures though.
[IMG] Paid for this a couple weeks ago and just picked it up this past weekend. Its an unkown year model A with no roof or deck lid. :) Was on...
Was in the pictures section on the lake headers site, not sure who it belongs to. Thought that tire setup looked pretty sweet but I'm going to be...
What kind of wheels are on this car, besides the obvious that they are wire. [IMG] Are they standard model a wire wheels or some kind of...
So what options are there when a coupe body has lost its roof at one point or another? There seem to be three ways I can go with it and there is...
Poppaq thanks but I snagged another frame, it even has a body attached to it too! :) This one was a learning experience though. Wire welders...
Here is the frame boxed, sorry both rails aren't shown: [IMG] Now my only problem is after looking at it, the drivers side rail is thrashed, it...
After about two days of trying to get the frame boxed in and getting the welds to hold and only have them break free, I got a lincoln stick welder...
I've been reading up on the DIY log intakes and all the info I can find appears to be for setups running two plenums with 3-4 carbs on each side....
Have another question about this type of front end: [IMG] 1 determines the amount the front end is dropped correct? And what widths do I want 2...
Got a top piece of angle steel welded in and a bottom piece on the other side. A lot more work that I thought, also purchashing a square made this...
That had plants and gardening stuff on it, I liberated it for the build. The plants were dead anyway. :D
Like I said, going by the book and it suggested 4" back from the face of the crossmember so thats where I did it. If I had any clue as to what I...
This is the start of my A frame. Hoping to one day land a coupe body to put on it, but whatever I can get my hands on will work. Following the how...
Alright thanks a bunch, as I said I don't really know a lot about it all, I hope that picks up though as I start putting it all together. It all...
Along with my A frame I got a front and rear end with it and was curious if anyone could help me figure out what they are. I was told the front...
Alright thanks a bunch exactly what I was looking for. :) Now the tough part will be cutting the frame. :)
