The Jalopy Journal
My basket case the day I picked it up some 13+ years ago. Block heater cord for additional Canadian content. [img]
Well done, raprap! I could see this rendered up and featured on the SolidWorks website. :) It would require modeling up a flattie, different...
Welcome from just south of you. :)
I have used junkyard a/c parts before on my o/t daily with success. It's from the early 90's so it was originally a R12 system, but I was able to...
Cool video, Flashback58! Sorry I missed the last event... I suspect that's a new addition. The diner has become quite popular as a photo...
Tailgates and emblems would be the only real difference. And the VIN tag, of course. I'm not aware of anything interior-wise on a Merc that...
This is good advice as well, especially if you feel there's a chance that you'd like to go lower in the future and add power brakes and steering....
There's also monoleaf springs, which are available in a reversed eye. Yet another option is an axle flip in the front, which appears to be quite...
Thanks for that! It was the highlight of the exhibit for me and I would have loved to inspect it more closely. Still, the attention to detail...
When I was at the San Diego Automotive Museum last year they had a Woodie exhibit that included a Model A with an all-wood body (sixth photo down...
In a similar vein, mid-90's Honda Preludes (1994-96 I believe) were also available with an 11 3/32" front rotor in 4 x 4.5 (i.e. 4 x 114.3 mm)...
Love this as well. Fantastic illustrations.
Wow, great show this week! Very cool technique and a great piece. The subtle striping really pulls it all together. Well done!
Looks a little plain. Think you could spice it up a bit? ;) Seriously, I'm blown away by the craftsmanship. Well done! Can't wait...
Glad it's working out for you. :) Do you still have the single front motor mount (shaped like a horseshoe and attached to the front of the...
I have this exact same issue, where my project is down the list of priorities, is completely stalled and has been for some time, and it's a huge...
Great build. Excellent job on the bed floor and I'm digging those gas tank straps. Subscribed!
Thanks for the photos everyone! Looks like I missed a gooder! Saturday got away on me big time. Had to make a side trip to downtown Calgary in the...
I like the food too, but perhaps I've been partly influenced by the great atmosphere. ;) On top of that I've found the owner to be awesome to...
I have seen photos of a rear sump pan on a 223 before. I believe they may have been factory on earlier trucks (say '55 or so) but I can't say for...
There were a few "off-topic" vehicles there last year. Including mine. ;)
At first glance I also thought that the blue one was missing at 1:41, but it is indeed still there. You can see one of the legs and a small...
F**k fast food! Support your local diner! :)
These are fantastic. Well done!
Good timing, works for me! :)
That was really cool. And inspiring! I love all the signatures on the van.
Agreed, those are quite nice proportions.
Unfortunately, the overall design of the front suspension just looks inherently weak. Add to that the laundry list of geometry issues ELpolacko...
Long bed owner here too. :) The bed looks like it's a touch longer than 6.5' to my eye, but I kind of like it. It's done much better than the...
No problem! It's interesting that you're only allowed 35% on the rear window. Here you could go as dark as you wanted on the rear window but...
