The Jalopy Journal
I want to thank everyone who has posted in this thread. I've got another three weeks before my daughter is born, and this thread has made me look...
Been a touch under 180 (186 indicated) on an '07 Suzuki GSXR 1000. Rev limiter in 5th gear.....:eek: Never again, my ricebike days are over. As...
Alright, so I'm goin' up the wall here, and its time to resort to my fellow HAMB'ers for some help.... I've got this '57 Chevy 2 door. Had a...
Good, aftermarket MTF will do you wonders. I've used it all. Pennzoil Synchromesh, RP, Redline, Amsoil, I've ran it, and never had any complaints....
You want my opinion? A stock 396/350 would be taxing on even a world class T5 with how much power it makes. It's been said, one hard 2-3 shift and...
SUPER cool. Nice execution. A fella in Indy has a slant six powered T with an old Evinrude housing for an air cleaner. But I really like how...
Cut it up. Only live once! I have dreams about opportunities like this. Literally.
It's one of the things I miss about having the open trailer for my race car '55. I welcomed little (and some not so little) kids to have a seat in...
C'mon, man. How do you know his 240sx doesn't have a built bottom end SR20 with a honker of a turbo stuck to the side? A combo that's good for an...
Hey man, fuck all these keyboard warriors who want to tell you that you don't take pride in your car, or you should sell it to buy a taurus or...
Mine is very tolerant of it. I've had some that weren't. And they all hit the bricks. Good riddance. I couldn't ask for better now, she's always...
It could be worse. They could be fat, worthless pimple face peckernecks in mom and dad's basement playing video games. I'd rather see 10,000...
Here ya go. http://classicconnection.net/
Had the same thing happen to me with an O/T car. Was pickin' it up knowing it had a bad rod knock, and the rod let go while I was pullin' it in...
Noticed that same thing. Pretty cool!
I've been slowly accumulating pre-1980's car movies for the past year or so. Big Wheel with Mickey Rooney is probably one of my favorites, for...
Watching it as we speak. Just thought I'd pass on to the others, I picked it up at Meijer in the "Bargain DVD" section for $5.99. Can't NOT...
Shit, all I keep running into is people asking a mint for their garbage because "times are tough, we gotta get every penny we can." horseshit...
PB? I'll stick with the old "wet bread". Definitely a LOT easier to clean up.
Looked at a '68 Camaro race car a few years ago that I was told was "perfect" and "I wouldn't find one thing I didn't like about the car" over the...
Yeah, fuck big transport companies. Those guys are nothing but crooks. CIP, I shipped a motorcycle with Allied in November. The bike left my...
I drive mine everyday, considering it's a picture of my right leg. Haha.
Man, I love those. I've gotten that more than once. Or the dudes trying to run the hustle with a car I've owned/put together. That's always a fun...
Shitty wiring, or bad body work will turn me away from anything in a heartbeat.
Sorry, I've NEVER gotten under a car without a jackstand. I'm young, but dammit I know better. I had a good friend who has a nice scar on the...
Funny, to the OP, my dad decided to put my Dominator back on my race car for me, after a rebuild, when I wasn't home. Determined he'd left the rag...
Amsoil, Amsoil, and Amsoil. Wix filters on everything as well.
Man, what's up with all the Ned Flanders types these days? It's hot rodding. If you wanna be Johnny Law Abiding, buy a Prius.
I have so many of these from the racetrack that I could write a fuggin' book..... In relation to my '55..... One I always get: "There's no way...
Easy ones! 1.) Attend Bonneville. Preferably as a participant. 2.) Make a 7 second 1/4 mile pass (should happen this weekend in my old man's...
