Bump. Thought I posted more pictures, I'll take some soon. Got an 8BA block with mains, oil pan, oil pump drive gears and cover, early timing...
BUMP. Make offers, I’m a motivated seller. Make me an offer for it all if you want.
They started to suck anyway. Nowhere as this as they were when they restarted the HRD title. Shit Hot Rod is thinner, shorter and narrower. They...
I’ve got a bunch of parts where I had wanted a T since I was really little and started buying parts when I was 15 or so. Here’s a partial list:...
I found it last night but my eyes were too tired to see how you did your crossmember and other areas. I am awake now and a good bit less worried...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I want the car to sit very low. Nobody seems to have an off he shelf frame that will fit under a T body or doesn’t sit like a...
What could I expect it to run to get someone with a frame table to build it? When I gotta go back to work January 2 and I’ll be back to working 72...
I definitely went off half cocked when I started this. I’ll throw a set together tomorrow with some of this steel.
Started building my little T frame today. I just realized I think I made a mistake. I narrowed the reproduction A crossmember to fit between the...
Was wondering if anyone has measured the volume of the transfer area on the stock or original performance or repop heads. As I understand it,...
Looking to buy a bellhousing. Probably going to mount a later top loader 4-speed. Or an adapter and Muncie, depending on which I find a better...
This thread has got me thinking. I’m not good at metal work. I’m also not great and wood working but when I last took a break from my project I...
DAMN! Those are some good numbers. Please forgive my ignorance. I've only been around later models. Parallel leaf spring cars and coil spring cars.
I'm looking at rear suspensions. Nothing looks as good as a transverse rear leaf spring. But I don't know of anyone who has ran one and don't know...
I've got nothing to add but sharp new ride, man. Aesthetically it's right on the money.
Yep. The concensus is right. You guys are badass. Definitely '60 to '66 Imperial. I'd say a guy could have put them on a rod in the day. Would be...
[ATTACH] Fiberglass prototype of the Edelbrock TM-1. I would recommend this plan. After all that's pretty much how it was done for years at...
They did. Some still do. I could never imagine eating a turtle but my grandfather swore they were some of the best meat.
If you got a turtle deck, shoot me a PM. Good score.
I don't care much for that hippie beatnik shit personally.
Doh! Can't believe I didn't think to just stick everything in a drum. Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees. Drums are easy to come by....
Was wondering what you guys do if you're wanting to store fresh engine parts? Would like to build a fairly hot engine for my T. Pick up a block...
And it's a beauty.
Thanks. Was hoping they were older but hey I dig em and they look older than '66. Thinking if these aren't pitted, they'd look great chromed.
Eaton M90s have said bypass. Been a few ran on flatheads with good success. Do imagine with a carb set up to be run draw thru supercharged if you...
Saw these wheels on eBay earlier today. Had to have them. Should look fine on the rear with my 5" F1 wheels in front. Think I've seen a few...
Saw the '40 had sold at auction for $60000. Hope there was insurance and it was for more than that. Could see running through $60k easy to bring...
Here's a guy who can drop your stock axle. Ran across his site a few years ago and saved it. https://droppedaxles.com/chevy-dropped-axles-0
I really like that '40. Hope the insurance at least pays enough to restore them again but you know how they are.... Darn shame. Wouldn't mind...
I can appreciate your delima. It is most likely repairable but may end up being cost prohibitive if you cannot find a welder will to take the job....
