X2 ON COKER!!! Anyone who has bought from Corkey can vouch that they wouldn't buy from anyone else (period).
Thanks to serkombi71, I finally found out what happened to my old truck. I sold it to a guy back a year and a half ago in Ohio, but had since...
My vote's for a mild custom, with traditional, somewhat wild paint. Sorry, I couldn't find much for shoebox Chevys, but something along these...
I agree, use caps, but something no one else uses. I like my old ones, '57 210 Chevy dog dishes with bullets. It looked even better with the...
...We were young, and a helluva long way from home. We were pulling down crappy wages for twenty-four hours a day, seven days a-week availability...
Primered, huh, I guess my old one qualified. Stripped it down to bare metal three times last winter. Sure do miss that truck, just hope the new...
Here's a thought, but since I've never been underneath one of these, I might be talking completely out of my ass... What's preventing a person...
I just wanted to say thank you for all of your support. I'm in the Navy, currently supporting the efforts in Kabul, Afghanistan (capital...
I think I am going to always regret selling my '58 Apache. I was getting ready to deploy to Afghanistan (where I am now) and she was getting ready...
My lame attempt at it...
It's Ace and Gary's old car, retired from years of fighting crime.
Jim Belfury?
It's because the corkscrew grooves that are cut into it by grinding at 90 degrees causes the arc to corkscrew as well, versus the electron flow...

That guy is usually at Goodguys Spokane. It always blows my mind seeing that blower behind a sheet of plexiglass in the back seat. Fitting...

No shit! Top Gear (British car show) had an episode where they took a Land Rover to the top of a proclaimed "never attempted" mountain in Ireland...
Thanks for the input. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm getting ready to start my Engineering degree but it's been a long time since I've done...
Just wondering the capacity and any issues there may be with leagality. Thanks.
Steve McQueen's favorite one was a baby blue '58 GMC 2WD though, if I remember correctly.
Granted, they had their purpose and they were much more utilitarian than the 2 wheel drive, but they sure do look out of place (about like a...
First, check all of the belts and hoses and do a fluids change. If that's a 46 y/o car w/ only 24k miles, I'm sure it has some rubber rot. Also,...
KIRK!, congratulations on owning a now legendary car. The folks at Gambino's really took care of you and in the process, built a custom to set...
"cut it out and replace the metal"
I had Herculiner in the bed of my old truck and didn't really have any problems. It's not as thick as the professional liners, but that might not...
Looks like one for the restorers. Not my cup of tea, although I know it has some pretty serious potential. If you cut it up, it will just be...
That's stupid, I can do that shit!
Wow, some great looking work, just can't get past those wheels. Maybe they're just mock-ups.
The cabs are the same for '55-'59. In fact, if you want to blow a quick $5000, there's a company that's repopping them. The frames should also...
