The evolution of drag racing under one roof! Definitely on my to do list next time I am in Florida. Thanks for sharing!
Outstanding work! Did you form those outside pieces in one piece? If so, how? Did you shrink/stretch before tipping the edge that mates with the...
It's hard being pissed off at yourself. Everywhere you go, there you are.......
I sometimes do it just walking ACROSS the shop.

I lift my heavy Nailhead engines with 4 - 5/16 fasteners and have lifted it with the 1/4" fasteners on the intake. YMMV.
Amazon has more 1157 sockets than you can shake a stick at. I used similar to these on my 61 Buick. 1157 is a dual filament bulb and will have...

I've had metal removed from my eyes at least 3, maybe 4 times. I now try to be disciplined but all it takes is that 15 second, "I'm just gonna...
This is the reason I do all my own work, except paint and upholstery. Every time someone I know mentions buying an old car, the first question I...

My apologies. I thought they were window regulators!
No one can see them. Why would you chrome plate them? I usually rattle can them but if you want something more esthetic, you could powder coat...
Those are from Facebook. Michael's nephews are drag racing and those could be pics of cars at a drag race. Check the link I posted for info on the...
They have an impressive collection of Mopar memorabilia, signage, etc dating from Maxwell right up throught the 60's. They also have some of the...
