My favorite part of the 1926 Panhard is that the driver sat inside of the steering wheel:
Technically I can but emotionally I can't.
Why would it have to be riveted and then soldered? I feel like I have seen quite a few tanks that aren't riveted. Can you tell me a bit more?
Yes! They do absolutely incredible work but I need a very specific shape to fit the fairing so I'll need to make it myself
I am looking to form a brass gas tank for my cycle-car since it fits the era and will be exposed. I have a some experience with brazing steel...
Def shorten the front as there is less mechanical advantage from the diff at that end. If you are using bungs for tie rod ends then you should...
That's the original ratio. That being said, it's worth checking (if you are after a certain ratio) because after 80 years parts tend to get...
What are you doing for a new center crossmember? I assume if you are swapping out the transmission you'll need something to support the new one....
The wishbone mounts are different for the different years so you'll have to get that sorted for your A. 1928-1931 have the spring over the axle...
my post got moved from the general discussion to the antiquated section. is there any reason why? did i post on the wrong board and not realize it?
I have never seen this but the ends are forged so I assume it is possible and that someone has done it. That being said, it would be tough to keep...
I was also working on attaching the wishbone mounts. These are on the top of the frame rail. I have been trying to use solid rivets wherever...
Been busy lately but I finally got the chance to work on the bearing hump. This bearing holds the jackshaft in place and needed to be raised up a...
the build looks great! i'm glad you're leaving it unchopped, too!
this build is incredible! is there a thread dedicated to it?
I messaged them recently on social media and didn't get a response but placed an order for brake shoes anyway and got them in the mail immediately
ahhh, i see it! that machining/ mount is an awesome solution!!
what steering box is that?
my experience is that the post heat is just as important as the pre-heat. my trick for bringing it down to temp slowly is to take a disposable pan...
Right?? It's awesome to see kids learning how to machine/ weld/ CAD/ etc. Their desire to design and build things themselves really gives me hope!...
Thank you so much for the kind words! These big projects can really drag on and it can be difficult to keep up the motivation/ momentum so I...

[IMG] Apparently I haven't started a thread in ~10 years but I wanted to document this build somewhere so I thought I'd get back into this forum!...
