The Jalopy Journal
I'm baaaaaaaack! After being off the HAMB for various (mostly health) reasons, I'm back. The '37 Plymouth is roadworthy, and next, I'm looking...
Sounds like a winner -- see you guys there.
Very easy, and VERY nice! Thanks.
Vintique sells halogen headlites with turn signals built right in, you can't see them inside the headlight until you turn them on. Nice thing is...
Do anything you can to keep the wheels from wobbling, get them going straight and steady.
Move the wipers from the roof to the cowl, put the headlights on the fenders instead of on the radiator, will make it look lower. DO NOT chop it,...
Wow, you're doing a great thing. Must be very rewarding.
There is sometimes justice, however. A guy in my area was missing for a week, they found his body laying at the bottom of a telphone pole,...
stovebolt.com is a pretty good source
Ditto on the dropped spindles, otherwise be glad you can spend your $$ on something else other than front suspension.
..... I was told if you go, be ready to surrender your US passport, you'll be a man without a country while there.
Try Vintique for halogens with signals that you can't see until lit.
So if the inner rocker panels look okay, is $8-9K a reasonable ball park price for a '50 driver flathead coupe? But if the inners are rotten, is...
I grew up in the 60's with SBC's and then the muscle car era, so flatheads are a bit foreign to me. Anything I should look for other than the...
jfrolka, Thanks for the info, that helps me a lot. The flathead is supposedly rebuilt, I'll have to get more details on what exactly was done,...
I have a line on a 1950 Mercury coupe, and the guy says it has the original flathead with only 500 miles on a rebuild. He says it still has the...
X2. We used to call them Sneaker pipes, I have a NOS pair that will be going on my '37.
A 4-dr HT makes a great cruiser -- have fun!!
If putting it under the floor, be aware to keep your exhaust pipe away from it. I put my '37 Plymouth's MC under the floor, I used a 'Y' pipe...
Is there some other place you can have that much fun for $2 ?
Yes, this Airstream body was produced after the streamlined Airflow lost sales due to its unusual design. You did the right thing.
I looked into this for some pot metal trunk hinges I have, one plater told me they can be soldered after being plated with copper.
I agree, 3 months is kinda far away.
Nice, neat and looks good.
Another thumbs up, Guides are over-priced.
Ryan, thanks for the heads up, don't worry about us, we're tough!
What time do the doors open on Friday?
Be sure to go to Don Garlits drag racing museum, Ocala.
Consider learning to be a certified welder. I took a 14-week night course (6 hours a week) at my local Vo-Tech just to learn it as a hobby. When...
This is a great thread, and an example of the power of the HAMB. Maybe even saved a guy from a wreck. If you have to cut those springs again,...
