The Jalopy Journal
El Chupacabra 2 and the Wagons of Steel North team will be there.
Thanks for posting all the pics. I must have really been in the zone (twilight?) cuz I don't remember seeing half of those cars. Great weekend...
Cool old truck should be a good daily. There's lots of hop up slant six parts and tricks for getting great economy and power.
I'm having the same query for our '56. Besides a big comfortable bench that'll seat 3 and a stick to hammer the knees of the person in the middle,...
Wicked!!! Always good to see more AWB projects happening. He'll need to build himself a set of fender well headers to complete the look. Love...
I've wanted to make this race for years but basically three days of driving with a trailer seems like a real deterrent. Four days of racing makes...
Good thread, I was just heading out to buy some of that 303 from my trim shop on their recommendation of how it will rejuvenate old dried out...
That first shot is when we first picked it up and it was actually worse than it looks...then I dropped a carport on it. Long Winters make for...
Yup, unless my valve covers have spark plug holes in 'em.
Nothing more than a mild 440 with dual quads and aluminum heads for now. The trans is a fully built 1965 pushbutton 727 with 5000 stall converter....
Our nearly finished '64 altered wagon is feeling pretty relevant to this thread so I thought I would post some pics. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Hey, I didn't even know this thread existed. Thanks for the props guys but I didn't build it alone. The bulk of the build was done by me and a...
Depending on what you mean by "in the weeds" you could probably just get away with hacking some coils in the front and lowering blocks in the...
You're ridiculous. You simply come across as an ornery old prick when all we're here to do is welcome a new guy to the forum. Chill the fuck...
Way to step out of the shadows brother. Lurk King is part of my hot rod gang and isn't nearly as creepy as he makes himself out to be. Also hands...
No power train which is perfect for my application. The roof is fairly fucked from several heavy Winters but I'm confident that I can fix or...
Cool thread, I'll be looking this over a little closer since I just scored this. [IMG]
Yah, sucks pretty bad. There's thoughts that maybe he had a heart attack or something. Autopsy will tell all I suppose.
A fatal crash took place on Saturday at my home track when a newly recreated nostalgia front engine dragster left the track at speed with no signs...
Yah, it's going nuts up here as well. We have about seven new teams in our small area. My girl plays on the Nelson Killjoys so I make most games....
I love the "California Flash" paint scheme. Ours will be loosely based on the "Color Me Gone" paint which will be sprayed in the next few weeks...
Jacob's make porcelain boot plug wires. We bought a set years ago when we were having this issue. A bit pricey but it solved the problem and we've...
If the hub is separating from the body (which we probably couldn't see) then it's definitely replacement time. If you're just driving on the...
I just finished doing this on our '64 AWB car. Just do one side at a time or one corner at a time would be even better. Drill holes where the new...
I'm sure that both sides of the auto manufacturing sector were collaborating on these cars but the designs and engineering probably came from the...
Well then, not to skewer this thread too much here's my Canadian Poncho, as seen in my avatar but in big. '63 Parisienne with a factory boxed...
You'de be surprised. Most Americans don't even realize there is a different country below Alaska. Unfortunately I have no pics of early Acadians...
Those seem like some pretty impressive #s for a Poly. I've always loved these motors and found them to be pretty impressive even in stock trim...
Funny, that's the color scheme we're sort of using. Sounds like you're aiming to build a 2%er. That's super period for a '64 since everything...
