The car's a Special and the '53 front end parts would also be from a Special. I can see from pictures that they look quite similar, but just cause...
Just wondering if the front fenders, hood, etc. From a '53 Buick will fit onto a '50. I know anything is possible with enough time, money and...
I've heard that since being bought by Valspar in '97 House of Kolor has gone down hill, especially recently. Don't remember the exact details and...

Thanks for sharing, I'm gonna have to consider saving up some extra pennies for a Ramsey when I get a winch.
Don't they make things that you strap on your face, like a filter to keep the dust out of your lungs or something!? My shop teacher said back...
My dad bought a '57 Bel Air when he was a kid back in the 70's. Sold it sometime before the 80's.. 5 or so years ago we found it and my older...

Maybe a dumb questions but I'm gonna ask anyways.. What's the benefit of solid motor mounts? And I just wanna make sure I'm understanding number...

I can't wait to see how this thing turns out. I worked on a 30 Buick Roadster a year or so ago but it was all original. I was thinking at the time...

Welcome aboard, sounds like a cool project to me. Let's see some pictures
Ford actually did on big truck stuff. I'm working on a '33 1 ton and it has them. I could be mistaken on this one cause I'm going off my poor...
I have to be honest, I cant say I'm in love with where you're going with it. There was a time when I loved the faked patina, I guess I'm just over...
I remember growing up there was an old panel truck in the woods behind a house up the road from my parents.. Well, I bought the house just a few...
Phew, dodged the bullet on that one.. almost just started this same exact thread.. Would've picked up some flack for that I'm sure. Glad I decided...
