New paint for my tank (admittedly it's on my sportbike, but still). I got the idea for the tiki off someone on one of these artshows, sorry I...
I screwed up on the teeth. Enamels on steel.
My homage to Sailor Jerry - enamel on steel [img] And another enamel on steel (11" x 14" I think) [img] Both of these (and some stuff...
Pinstriped my helmet for my new bike [img] [img]
Been learning how to stripe and paint. These are all on 16 gauge steel. We are raffling these and some other things this weekend at the Days...
I painted my beer fridge, did a flying heart on glass and pinstriped a friends truck. The actual striping took place on the hood but it was...
Also - going from the key straight to the coil ok?
Got the engine wired, about to start on the interior. Question about the key though - I've got: (clockwise, starting at 12 o'clock) sol, acc,...
Spent the day ripping out the mangled mess that was someone's excuse for a wiring job in my wife's '66 chevy c10, going to start wiring it back up...
I think you guys have sold me! The car isn't going to be period correct and I'm not really one to care - so that part doesn't bother me. Plus...
Car is a '51 Buick Roadmaster. I bought the EZ Wiring harness (I think it's the EZ-21) last year for just such an occasion, but as I'm looking...
Howdy folks! My wife and I are heading out to Viva again this year - we had hoped to be driving my '51 out there but time/money got in the way...
I was trying to get my car ready for the trip - but ran out of money and time. We'd love to meet up with some folks though for a few beers - our...
I did speak to Garey the other day and he was super helpful - he was the one who told me that they don't really do weekend classes anymore. If...
I just got thru watching that - it's like a 'less talented' version of Monster Garage. The brother that has hair and the dad are the only people...
Not 'fabrication' in the way that some fabricate, but making floor pans out of server cases and sheet steel is plenty for me right now at this...
This was MANY years ago. We were working on a donor hearse in our club and the frame wasn't great on it. When we jacked it up, we put the stands...
Thanks for the input guys - a few responses. I've got a 110v welder right now (it's a matco with a tweco gun - I have gas for it, but the tank is...
I'd really like my welding to get better and be able to do better than just ugly 'we're going to cover that with carpet' welding on floor pans and...
That is damned neat! Thank you for sharing this.
Saw this at a car show once.
I'm not concerned with it looking right or not (trust me, you should see the floorboards - 'functional' yes, pretty, no.) - if it has no purpose...
I'll take another look under the car at the steering box and see - I'm not 100% confident that it is the original motor, but that seems like...
That's what I figured the top one was, it's the one in the front of the motor we can't figure out. There is also a 2 groove pulley on the crank...
My friend Tony and I sat there for a good 10 minutes discussing what we thought this bracket to be and came up with exactly squat. The car is a...
I'll try and find you and buy you a beer to ease the pain. I'm trying to get my Buick up there - but its not looking too hot. If not, we'll...
What do you lack?

I've got a '51 that I'm hacking at right now. Check the link in my sig.
