Awesome! That’s a good feeling. My sedan looked very similar to yours on the first drive. Even the patina was very similar.
I love to live vicariously through your adventures Jim! Lemons rallies may be in my future.
Cool! Love those flattops
I just happened to bump into a fella that worked at the shop that did all the chrome on my coupe back in the 80s. He said my dad would practically...
Looking good man!
This is true... if you've got disc brakes that's your problem right there. That's one reason why I stayed with drum, upgraded to 60's F100 Brakes...
If that is indeed a 47" axle, I'm surprised you're having the issues you are. Like Alchemy said, maybe those are 4.5" wide wheels? Some early...
I did a 47” axle and corresponding Posies spring for a 35” perch width. Sucking in the wheels 1.5” (stock is 48.5) really makes a difference. Get...
I agree 100%. I've almost run off the road craning my neck at an old car going the other way, and it doesn't even have to be cool. Case in...
Incredible car and well deserved recognition! You should be proud!
All I have to offer is my Nailehead anecdote: I had a 56 Buick Super for a couple years, and when I drove it, it had OK power, ran good, but I...
I would say that yes, they are fixed because I also read that the production 37 louvers were upside down from the original design. Nice touch.
Really cool, although I was a little worried when I saw the Pelvis on the JJ cover pic today.. :)
I don't feel like I have to defend streaming car content, but there's some stuff on there that is not reality show scripted crap. I've learned a...
I painted this with a model paint maroon but I was going for Mandarin Maroon, a very traditional color.[ATTACH]
Sounds like you need a stronger pedal return spring.
Wow, that's mindblowingly true!
I'll actually be saving money because I currently subscribe to both. The wife likes all the home reno and cooking shows on discovery.
Sounds like the content will still be available, just on Discovery +
I had that problem. Pushrod to close, holding the MC open just slightly. Backed it off so there was the ever so slight gap between the pushrod and...
This one looks like a different car, note the 37 style belt line reveal and the 37 humpback style trunk. Don't know if they re-did the 35 or cut...
I was just coming here to start a thread but you guys beat me to it. Yeah what gives on the pop ups?
I've been fascinated by this car for years. Someone on here is/was building a clone, or a tribute. I cannot remember who it is, but I haven't...
I was a hot rod kid ca. 1979[ATTACH]
I saw X in the flesh about 10 years ago when it had a blown LS. I’m gaga over your Corvette so I know this is gonna be cool!
Mitch I’m not trying to be that guy but you could just get a Mustang MC and do fitting adapters on the lines.
I just saw upon a second look to this thread that you live in British Columbia. Unless you’re planning a trip to Death Valley California or...
Dad pulled his T bucket behind his 41 Cad to the Nationals in Tulsa? Maybe 76? Not sure. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] A channeled Deuce Roadster he had in...
I can contribute a few pics, since summers of my childhood were spent at NSRA events. First, me at age 2ish in front of Dad's 38, he was flogging...
I would just wrap the pipe with header wrap. That stuff really works!
