The Jalopy Journal
Rusty, When this thread started I (somehow) got the impression you were throwing together a semi-nice driver quality car. Ooooops. That frame is...
Impala are good, but I wanted to see the Model A. Oh, well; not my car/not my choice.
So when we're looking for you at Dewey what car do we look for?
Billy, I thought my public-school education was pretty complete. BUT, NOOOO. You made me look up "verklempt". I'm not going to post what it...
Rusty, You really like those Indian colors don't you. They are great colors.
I've been fighting an exhaust gasket for several hours. The three-bolt header collector to cone gasket. I was doing this with Clarence held up on...
Oh, yeah. Thanks for asking. I put solid wood cribbing under each side of the front end; out close to the wheels. You'll NEVER see me under...
I'm partial to cribbing. I don't trust jackstands, no matter how high they're rated.
I need to get under Clarence for about 30 seconds. I'd love to just do it and be done. I'm going to block it up with cribbing like a good boy...
[IMG] Please forgive me for hi-jacking the thread. @2935ford; are those 38/39 Buick/Olds tail lights?
@2FORCEFULL , Thank you for starting this thread. My '31 two door sedan is a half-finished project that was started over 30 years ago and has sat...
Here's a 28/29 with 32 tank: [ATTACH] ...and here's one with some kind of tank back there: [ATTACH]
Just in case you'd like to see more 30/31 pix: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] This one looks like what you're trying to do [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
@fastcar1953, Well, while I consider Kenny (& his brother Reggie) to be good friends, Clarence got chopped before I met him/them. Last I heard...
Tom, You're preaching to the choir. NO ONE is arguing with you.
Tom, I agree 100%. Stuff fails, sometimes ccatastrophicaly. If I were to build such a setup (which I never will) I'd probably use a double roller...
Clarence at the 2003 HAMB Drags, lined up and running against hotrodladycruiser. Denise could have removed 3 plug wires and still had more engine...
On a Model A pickup (not mine); very similar to what DDDenny posted. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Also on an antique dirt track racing circuit I used to...
We chopped the top on Clarence (avatar) in 1992. All cuts, excepting A pillers and doors/door openings was done with a plasma cutter. A straight...
I've seen Crosley and Model A transmissions on various shop machines such as lathes etc. Should work on a bandsaw. I'm guessing you would want...
Not his first rodeo (obviously)...
Great! You can change the existing ones in the edit function. Thanks.
That's a tough one. Don't worry though. @squirrel will be along shortly with the correct answer.
Does the 3M pad leave scratch marks?
Anthony, As soon as I read 292 I immediately thought of Bob Klessig. I bet he drove that green Chevy convertible a half a million miles with a 292.
Jeff, I (and thousands of others on here) seldom post comments about your Ford build. That said, however, we all look every time you post up...
I just went back and reread this thread. Thanx @Nick32vic for bringing it back up to the top. Thanks to EVERYONE who commented. Be looking for us...
Not unless I remove the interior panels. Maybe it would be worth it to do so. Go back to response #16 for pix and you'll see the problem.
Well; it really doesn't matter anymore. I've decided to buy lap belts from Juliano's. Shoulder belts would be really nice but there's just no way...
Thank you all for taking the time to respond herein. However, we've veered way off course of my original four questions.
