After going to the Pile Up in 2005 and seeing all of the hot rods, I decided that I wanted to build one. This is the sheet metal from my Dad's...
I just went through a similar scenario this year. I bought my uncle's 31 Tudor sedan. 21XXX miles. Never left the county. Original Navy Blue...
Nice intro. Welcome. You're life has just begun, not over the hill.:) Good luck with the project.
No problem Rich. Enjoy the decent weather, we're getting pelted right now. Yup, I ride a limey. Finally wised up and sold the pair of old ones...
I have to agree with psychodaemon. The 303 I bought last month was totally complete minus the valve covers. Had to buy a set on eBay. Makes it...
I'm nearly speechless. Certainly I'm delusional. If you can swing the event, I'll even drag (no pun intended) my aging, diabetic, and nearly...
Welcome Rich! Great to see another Ohioan here. Hope to see you around when the weather breaks. Any chance you're going to the 50th anniversary...
Welcome to the board. Hope to get a shoot with your truck in 06. See you around the state. Still in Picktown, right?
Great to have another buckeye on the board, welcome metal man!
So sorry to hear. Best of luck on whatever you decide to do. The thrill of driving makes it even worse when they break. Put her back on the...
damn those are both nice, specially the Chrysler. 59 was a great year for Mopar styling (IMHO of course). Only barn find I ever came across was...
Welcome to the board. Not sure if your vintage car is the main focus of this site, but welcome. As for your Falcon, dump the 260, it's a small...
Shaggy, you answered your own question. $3.47 at NAPA will get you one. Mine shit out on my 54 Chev 210 with 235 about two months ago. New tank,...
After seeing this, I didn't save any $$$. I need two fours, an intake and one more air cleaner! Holy shit!
Another angle of the air cleaner
I was at a swap today in sunny Columbus, Ohio:rolleyes: and found a couple of things. First was a guy selling a TON of old 50/60s rod mags....
Wrenchbender, you gotta get those carbs for your Chev. Get them from Langdon's. I put a single one on my 54 and she runs like a striped ape! I...
I keep watching you guys in Mad Fab build that car over and over. Truly an inspiration for us all. EVERYONE is watchin and waitin to see your...
A friend of mine calls me the other day to tell me that he bought me one of those. I said "What the fuck? Energy drink? The only drink Dutch...
I think you may have a 235 and not a 216. If so, that's a WONDERFUL thing, as the 216 doesn't oil for shit, and the 235 is a strong runner. I've...
I'm Dale from Columbus, OH - transplanted from Los Angeles about 7 years ago. Okay . . . I've got issues -- think about flatheads, early Hemis,...
I had a 63 Dodge Polara ragtop in high school. Had a pushbutton on the dash. 383 motor. One of the funnest cars I've ever owned. Ugly as hell,...
that is one helluva beast!!! I only wish I were geographically close enough to see it in the flesh!
Gang, Many, many apologies for the title and subjects on the earlier posts. Didn't realize it was out of line. However, the last question...
Hey gang, just so everyone knows, I didn't intend for anyone to get offended by my title of this thread. I fully apologize to everyone on the...
Thats a helluva ride! Thanks for sharing the pics.
Finally, a question for me to share some decent knowledge on. The C4 bellhousing are in four varieties mainly. The early ones are a five bolt...
Exactly what a FNG needs to here. I aspire to be as traditional as possible, although I'll never be above 90 percent. Here's another question...
Let 'em laugh. Taste is always subjective, FREE is not. Cheaper Insurance, safer ride? Maybe a different set of hubcaps, though.
Here's another non rhetorical question. Why the fuck does this shit keep coming up?? Kick back and browse a while before you get all fired up to...
