The Jalopy Journal
I'm putting together a 350 in my '67 C10. (Yes I know, I know, but it IS traditional). I need some ideas for a cool 60s air cleaner. Show me what...
[ATTACH] I am selling a 1955 235 straight 6 engine and powerglide transmission out of a restored Belair. The motor and trans have both been...
Thanks to some persuasive people on here (it's a good thing I'm thick skinned. LOL), I now own a rebuilt and detailed '55 Chevy 235 Blue Flame 6....
I recently came across a rebuilt & detailed '55 Chevy Blue Flame 235. Looks like it just came out of a crate. The guy had it in his '55 2dr, had...
Where else would I start this thread? I like rods AND customs, so I've decided to give my 'Bird a little of both. I've owned this car about 8...
Hi kids! Yep, thought it was about time for a new thread, since it's been about a year since my last one. Got the 65 T-Bird back, been sitting in...
I just learned that I have some broken leaf springs. Where is a good source for a set for my '65 thunderbird? I'm thinking it would be better to...
I have a '65 T-Bird. I would like to redo the wheel but it has some issues. Some cracks and a chip and the horn ring is pretty pitted. Obviously I...
I don't know why this is so difficult, I can usually "see" what I want to do with a car. But I'm having a hard time coming up with the right...
I was given a couple of ideas for the T-Bird from some HAMBers. Can someone photoshop some lime green rims with spiders on this car? It's not mine...
I did a search and didn't find a current thread for this. This used to be a major topic, is a fading show for HAMBers? We plan on being there...
Well I decided to sell my '65 T-Bird. It's been setting in a garage for the past few years. It needed some wiring and exhaust work so I had parked...
No, I'm not singing an old cowboy song but I'm refering to getting the T-Bird back on the road. After about 3 years of setting idle (the car, not...
Hi gang. It's been a long time since I've been here. Some (most) of you probably don't even know (or care) who I am. For several years I spent...
After setting silently for about 2 years I fired up the '65 'Bird tonight. It didn't take too much coxing, a jump box and some gas down it's...
I know a lot of guys put the filler neck in the trunk but I'd rather have it outside of the car. But I don't like the gas cap hanging off the...
Will skirts from a '52 Chrysler fit a '52 Dodge?
I want to make the rear doors on my Dodge suicide. I did a search but didn't really find the answer to my questions.....which is, is there going...
Does anyone know if they share the same front sheet metal? I have a '52 and have noticed the '53 has chrome trim on the hood edge (above the...
I've pretty much have always run automatics but I'd like to keep the manual in the Dodge. What should I look for to put a 3 speed floor shifter in...
I've been looking at the pics posted on the different threads of recent car shows. I'm seeing a trend of leaving cars "as found" with their...
I just acquired some used chrome smoothie wheels. There's some rust around the rim (in the gully where the valve stem is). I was wondering if I...
Does anyone have a copy of the Tex Smith's Mopar Hot Rod book they would be willing to sell at a reasonable price? Apparently it's out of print...
I really like this rear bumper, I want one for my Dodge. Anyone know what it's off of?
I pulled the wheels and tires off my T-Bird and put 'em on the '52 Dodge, the "Red Headed Step Child". They are narrow white radials. I don't have...
I'm starting to lay out a plan for the Dodge. I like the 50s look of white wides and 'caps but I also like the 60s chrome reverse and narrow...
Does anyone know what wheels would be compatible with a '52 Dodge steering column? I'd like to stay with a mid-late 50s wheel. Have anything cool...
The gas tank on my 52 Pontiac has a small leak. When I got it the seller told me about it. I seems someone had tried to repair it. It had some...
I've been looking at a lot of photos of customs and have noticed that most of them do not run side mirrors. Not just todays customs but even back...
I need the rear ones (for now). Does anyone know if I can still actually buy them or am I going to have to have the old shoes relined? I checked a...
