I don't get on the HAMB much any more but I'm glad I subscribed to this build. Congrats, turned out awesome!!! I bet it's a blast to...
Cool idea...looks like it works really well. I can't imagine anyone not owning a sawzall.
Car is coming out really cool! Making me reminisce of a 52 I used to have. Looking forward to seeing some overall shots of it.
You sure do have a comment for just about anything don't you...let me comment your comment with one of your last comments... "It is an OEM part...
When planning on doing the lines on my project I pre ordered nicop line at Advance Auto. I just thought it bent too easily, yes I know that...
Great way of putting it. That second statement should really be put on the front page of the HAMB.
Don't get to post much on the HAMB anymore because I've been "labeled" un-friendly. By the HAMB standard my first car, a 52 Chevy with a straight...
I bought a universal one from Pirate Jacks. They have a variety of sizes, single or dual for better prices. Not trying to sell them here but...
Mr48chev...you are one hardcore AD-Trucker!
I've been to it a couple of times over the past few years and have enjoyed it. You'll see some nice customs but I'd say they're only 10% of the...
I finished up some more exhaust on my truck a little while back. Thought I would provide some updated pics. I'm running a Flowmaster 40 Series...
My bad...I guess I didn't see it that way. At first I just saw an off topic featured thread, I've been there and had them beat up on and deleted....
What about keeping the HAMB weather discussion free?
I'll clarify mine as a battery disconnect switch and not a "kill switch". The alternator output would need to go to the battery side of the kill...
Any of the Chevy S10 / Blazer / Bravada 4x4 rear ends will work. They measure about 59.5 from flange to flange. As noted, you'll need to weld on...
I've been building a 49 AD on and off for the past couple of years. With some time off over Christmas I was able to get some final work done on...
Way cool deal!
So, is it too personal to ask if you're using such a set-up? If so, what model tracker are you using? If you can do it for that little of a...
This may not be a traditional topic for the HAMB but getting your hot rod back if stolen I think would be desirable. I've seen posts on here time...
30 in. Smithy's on my 52 Chevy, split exhaust, stock 216. I thought it had a nice tone but you couldn't hear it in the car. I would have liked a...
As a current AD owner, and a former tow truck driver, I'll be following this one. Great build thus far!
Thanks! You know, that was one part of my project I had held off on for months because I thought it was going to be much harder and turn out...
This was my first try at any sheet metal shaping. Fairly simple but I felt like I accomplished something. I approached it using tips and tricks...
I bought a shaft from Southwest Speed: https://www.southwestspeed.com/?sec=view_menu&cat=Drivetrain&sub=Driveshafts My other plan was to grab an...
I was just on Eastwood's site, says free shipping for order over $50, their flaring tool is $189, then after a bit I got a pop-up for 10% off for...
Great looking car. That Walton's has some really nice stuff for 49-54 Chevy's.
I'll give a +1 for Rock Auto. The way they organize their parts database is simple, effective, and very easy locate parts. Prior to using Rock...
That having to pay the bills thing can suck some times. It was a great looking car, you did some nice work on it!
I used the following digital angle gauge to get my transmission output and diff at equal and opposite angles....
Summit, Speedway, and Jegs all seem to offer the free shipping with $100 purchase. I can't hardly ever seem to place an order without spending...
