Everywhere I look today I see NC people.
I've had a similar problem. Yes, a V-belt can slip without noise. I fixed the problem with a double belt/pulley setup. A serpentine belt will slip...
Its a done deal. My Hupmobile will have a new owner tomorrow. I suppose I should change my HAMB handle. To what I don't know. I sure am going to...
What voltage is your motor?
It would probably be fine to do if you disassemble it first and put the pieces in the dishwasher. I'd leave the bits in the sun for an afternoon...
I'm kind of surprised no one on here does this for their livelyhood. I might try to make one from sheet brass but I'm certain I don't want to make...
[ATTACH]Here's a pic I found and I outlined the part I want to duplicate.
I have a pair of originals.
1962 Cadillac Biarritz J trim
I have some body trim pieces I want to have duplicated. It seems these are exceedingly rare and sought after. I'd like to have perhaps a dozen or...
I built my rockers, lower door sections and grill from grocery store shelves. My shop heater is built from a water heater tank and numerous small...
Did you get the trailing arms and the mounts too? Unless you run big wheels your truck will be really low. Speed bump-pan banging low. Don't ask...
Live within your income and you'll live without worry....and a lot of other things. Like a 32' 3 window. I read somewhere the other day that there...
If you want "THUMP" you will need 40+ amps for the amp alone. If you just want loud you'll still need at least 10 amps of current.
I vote dizzy. Put a HEI in there and be done. The 73/ early 74 model had a seperate coil and doesn't look quite so bulky as the later models
Those heads are fairly easy to find. I've got 2 250 heads gathering dust in my shop.
You've got a bad ground. Probably at the headlight, possibly at the taillight.
There's a guy down around Myrtle Beach, SC that makes floorpans for those caddys. My dad has a 55 vert he just got floors for. I'll try to find...

1.Soak the crap out of the seats with fabreze then leave the windows open for a few days. 2.Pull the seat covers back and liberally apply baking...
I have a 200r4 behind a 292 L6 in the Hup. Its hard to beat out of the hole. Most times I'm at least half a block away before anyone else has...
If you are going to show the car the L6's get more attention than anyone's V8 or even flatheads. They look like they belong under an old hood. I...
I'd settle for available. Hup parts are like trying to find an ex's virginity. Whispered about like ghost stories but seldom turn into reality.
I drive my Hup every day. 292, auto, OD, AC, cruise, power everything but locks. 25 mpg back and forth to work, 17 miles each way.
I want to redo my paint with something different. I was thinking about a 3 tone total lace job but it might be too busy. Anyone ever do anything...
I don't think I've ever seen one painted inside. A baked enamel finish might hold up but I don't know of any paint that would last. Why bother?...
I try to get to Hatteras a couple of times each year usually spring and fall. I'm thinking the second week of Oct. this year.
I go every chance I get. Mostly at Atlantic Beach, Indian Beach or Emerald Isle but occasionally I'll take the boat to Cape Lookout or Shackleford...
Are your reflectors any good? If so Speedway sells a halogen replacement kit. You have to remove the original bulb socket and stick theirs in....
It looks more like this http://www.lectrafinish.com/website.html than the Alsa stuff to me.
