I have a pretty awesome DeWalt drill that is a plug in, and I would reccomend that to anyone. I just think that it's important for us HAMBer's to...
If there are more than 5 Corvette's from later than 1974 I leave.
Based on the obvious faults of products that Black and Decker puts out, and others like them, what do you hardened fabricatiors think should be...
I really think that maybe there should be some kind of message board on here about tool/part recommendations. It should be seperate, like the...
Do I really need to go as big as a 80 gallon air compressor? That seems like a little bit of overkill for a part time guy like myself. Milwaukee...
Do you guys have recommendations for white wall tires? Any brands that you guys feel are better than others? I have a 350 with some performance...
It was a present. I just haven't made any major tool purchases so far because I am a renter and am using a garage that I don't own while working...
I'm not even sure what the good brands are anymore. I like DeWalt but it just seems like more often than not these tools are mostly disposable,...
I Really think the best sanding tool Ive used is the 3M sanding discs. You can see the start of my work on my '37 Olds using it on the bulletin...
I got this sander for my birthday to use for restoring my '37 Olds. It is a Black and Decker 5" orbital sander. After using it for a while the...
Surprisingly I made it out to work out to work on the Olds twice this weekend. I started by sanding the rear fender, and because it was so...
So I went out to work on the Olds again today. I didn't have a ton of time but did the best I could with what I had. I sanded the door, which I...
This is the sanding bit I use. They arn't cheap, but they really work when you use them with a plug in drill, not with a rechargable.
So I actually got to go out and work on the Oldmobile for the first time in a few months. I wanted to get it started and drive it around a little...
I'll get out there next weekend. I am buying a house soon so I can work on the Olds every day. I would chop it but I am a little worried that it...
So I went out to work on the car and ran into an immediate problem. I couldn't decide where to start, so when I got there I basically walked...
The Opel is in pieces in Missouri. I have everything, it was somebody's project that fell by the wayside. I'll see if I can find pics.
Thanks much for the help. I will go out there next Saturday with your advice in hand.
I have a 1937 Olds and I can tell that in order to remove the bolt that holds the door on I have to remove the metal cap that covers it. I have...
Day 2: I went out to where the Olds is because it was a balmy 31 degrees out. My idea was to work more on removing the junk the previous owner...
I was watching My Classic Car and Dennis Gage went to the Hunnert Car Pile Up. On the show the H.A.M.B. was mentioned and I checked it out...
I'm begining to think that I don't know what it's like to finish a project.
I have seen several of these journal like posts on this board so I thought I would start my own. I just recently got my 1937 Oldsmobile F-37....
Does anyone know what body parts are compatable between mid-thirties GM's? I have a '37 Olds 2 door sedan, and I was curious if you can take...
It was my pleasure to be of service. You are, however, missing out on some really nice and unique cars in the Saab and the Opel.
It's beautiful. Does it have a push button trans. Like the color.
Drivers side door, trunk lid, and some trim for starters. Do you have any pics of the '37? I'd like to see it.
1937 Olds 1971 Opel GT 1974 Saab Sonett III 2002 Saab 9-5
Those are '37's all right. How are the trunk lids? They look like 4 Doors, are they?
I just wanted to say hello and tell you a little about myself. I really love cars and own/have owned many cars in my life. Right now I have my...
