I picked up this little (ha) welder yesterday. I was told it is an ex-navy ship yard welder, but little else was known. The welder portion is...
So, like years later seeing this comment made me curious, did you ever figure this out?
Thanks for the reply. That's indeed what it is from searching around a bit. You guys are amazing. Looks like the bed that was sitting on top of it...
Hey, while I have this thread open. Does anyone know what this axel is out of? It came out from under an antique home built trailer with what I...
Hey neat, I have that same craftsman vice. Usually most of my home made tools have been things to work on Corvairs. Somewhere around here is...
Ah, the ol' keratinous spudger. Most tool kits usually have 10 handy, give or take a few. ;)
I dunno, some wire mesh over the windows and bottom and it'd make a hell of a fire pit. I saw an 80s suburban that had been done up like that...
Failing all else...
Shingles is a great idea, but man, if you use those car canopies from Costco or wherever, TIE IT DOWN LIKE A TORNADO IS COMING. The only thing...
I dunno if this has been mentioned, but in regards to mice, go and buy a big box of scented dryer sheets and stuff them all around the interior,...
I really think the hood may be off a Durant or something similar. It's not Dodge, whatever it is, or at least it's not for *that* Dodge.
Spider webs are like automotive tramp stamps.
I did actually get the clock, and the santa and a doll of an indian girl...and part of an ice cream churn...and a lot of moss. But yeah, did get...
Interesting stuff. I do know as was mentioned above about the body tapering in. Things rarely line up right to just remove a section of any body....
In case anyone was wondering what my original intent was for it, here's a photo edit of it shortened into a truck cab to remove the wrinkled...
That hood does not fit it. It's too short in every direction. It does however look a lot like this Durant model 60 hood....
That does Bob, thanks. :)
My plans are undecided. I had thought about deleting the front doors to make it a suicide door extended pickup cab. Photoshop suggested that could...
That linked picture sure does look like it. The front fenders have stampings like that, and the body lines around the belt line and cowl and...
The up and down louvers with a space between them looks Durantish but I honestly don't know a lot about this era vehicle. I've only owned a few...
I picked up this ol' sedan as part of a sale/trade recently and the owner had no idea what it was. I thought that it was a 30 Dodge sedan when I...
I don't know if any of you have seen this, but I have my own UltraVan. I don't think I've posted it here before. My folks owned it when I was...
Lookin' good Mark! I'll try to swing by next week to see it. Looks way better with the 90s engine bay stuff removed and modified.
I got on when I had your old F1. I really miss that truck. What I know now could have sorted a lot of the stuff there. Alas, anyway. I'll swing...
I've only ever seen one of my cars/trucks/projects be improved when it popped up on craigslist later, and it was the truck Lowkat built. the later...
Rock the heck on. Man I'm thrilled to see you get that car, I know you've been after one for years. I kinda dig the wires, they go with the...
A few years OT but here's mine. It's an old circle track car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9qClgc9Mz4

This is a few years outside the guidelines but I thought a few folks would enjoy the patina of a long lost race car. I picked this up from a...
Well yeah, you just run them till you get to the hub. If you're lucky you can find a dremmel with a smaller hub to run the rest down to that...
