Going to bump this thread. I have a few questions on willys axles. I have 3 axles including the one under my Henry J. 2 of them have a 2 inch...
What an awesome idea! Being in my neighborhood, I’ve seen some of the most amazing historic buildings being bought, sold, vacated, neglected,...
Thank you on the shop. I bought and parted out a 1955 Chrysler saint regis for its 331 Hemi and triple nickel heads. After much thought I...

Those are the same conclusions I came to. This car has some crude welds, but I have to admit, the design of its construction is superior to most...
It is a real bel air. There just isn’t much left of what they originally started with. It has definitely gone through several owners and once...
