Been following this just because I am curious to see how it works out and enjoy your threads. I did notice you're dealing with 2" wide springs....
One thought I had was this just gives isolators on the shackle end, correct? It's still a steel to bronze connection on the front/stationary end,...
Awesome to hear! Will have to keep this in mind if I have to go thru this again. Congrats on the fix!
This one here you can use with a long water pump and don't need holes in the head either. Yes, maybe a little bit of a billet look but you can...
Yes the ‘55-56 ones just have that carriage bolt holding them together where the ‘57-59 have nuts on the ends of the heavy pins. Curious to see...
The Project X theme would have been interesting. I would like to do a 2 tone on mine similar tri-5 Chevy's but there's no good "breaking line" in...
I am assuming the surface where the plug is is where you're connecting your brake line end. While it looks like a "flat" surface, to me it...
'55.2 & '56 used the shackles like you have with the just the carriage bolt holding the side plates on. '57-'59 use the ones like Squirrel shows...
I think these are either being discontinued and/or they have stopped making them. Seems like almost everywhere you look for them they are out of...
Looks like a '55.2-59 Chevy stepside rear bumper. There was a comment made about a later one. Fleetsides were straight across (looking from the...
Consider checking out the Garage Journal (link on the bottom of this forum page). This would fit in there too.
Local NAPA dealer may have something.
If you were measuring the internal threads on the pump, you must be aware you were measuring approximately the minor diameter of the thread. For...
Check out this forum below. Someone on there may have a truck with the front clip off that they can get some measurements off of for you....
An attempt at a replica of a 1932 B400.
Jim Busby's coupe is good candidate.[ATTACH]
Luzader's is pretty cool...[ATTACH]
"Mandrel" bent aluminum roof trim strips - great idea!
I have been following your build and it's very nice. One question I had is are the firewall and gas tank a different color than the body? I may...
Front to back mine may be an inch or so further rearward and I am using a stock style bell housing and non-HEI distributor and valve covers are...
Are you thinking of something like this? I have seen Aston gas caps that come with these....
Things like this are awesome! From a quick interweb search: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VVL8ZNH/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Do you still have a...
Killer! Those headers are awesome! Keep up the great work!
Looks like you have a good solid body which is a great place to start. Like others say, unless you want something that drives like a newer...
Nice comparisons on the headers. Have always wanted to run fenderwells on my truck but assumed there would be some interferences. I have late...
That's called a threaded sleeve. Similar to a compression fitting (nut and sleeve) but it has the sleeve portion incorporated into the nut. My...
This is an interesting topic. I too watch youtubers doing car stuff and watch Jordan's. I will admit there are ones I don't watch anymore as...
A lot of bolts for the strips, bed angles, cross sills and bed front panel to line up for sure! You're making good progress. Too bad about the...
Nice conversion on the Mustang shifter for the S10 T5. I am planning on doing the same thing. Very nice work on all the things going on with...
I do not believe a panel should be any different than a pickup. '55.5-57 Chevy clip parts should be interchangeable except the '57 grill is...
