I'm rebuilding my '28 model A sedan with a '32 grill shell and want to run a full 4 piece hood. I've found an outfit that makes a 1 piece solid...
A lot of nice cars. Lots of guys driving their cars even though they aren't finished yet. It shows dedication. I guess they are still saving up...
I don't know what the ones that come with the R&P are made like. On the trucks it is a rather coarse splined shaft. The thought has occurred to me...
I know this is an old thread but I'm considering this R&P on straight axle setup and I don't quite get the concern about the a slip joint in a...
I did some searching for the GM 525 box and it does look like it might work (if I'm understanding what I'm seeing). It appears like it can be...
Not yet. However, I have decided that I will do as suggested earlier and strip the front clip off of the truck (I need to paint and detail the...
Thanks for all the input. The headers I have are sanderson block huggers. I have the original manifolds if I have to use them but would rather use...
I hear ya. However, The truck is pretty much done other than an engine swap and the engine is also detailed and has ceramic coated headers and I...
I am going to be putting a 348 into a '57 chevy 3100 pick-up. I'm told that the steering box interferes with the exhaust. Does anybody know how...
Thanks for the reply. It's a repo firewall. I was able to get it to fit by cutting out the braces in behind the firewall and pushing it back about...
I'm installing a firewall into my 28 model A and it APPEARS that the bottom section is about 1/4" too wide. When I put it in and clamp it into...
I think the music and/or movie association and popularity feed off of each other (same with the "deuce"). They are in songs and movies because...
Not just a little bit impressive. Great job. Where/how did you mount the battery?.
That's a good question. My choice of a '29 deusy has nothing to do with todays value other than it's WAY out of my reach today. I'm interested in...
Something like this...
I just installed a '32 fuel tank in my '28 A sedan and am pondering the best way to adapt the horn covers to meet the fenders. The car has 'glass...
Years ago I had a truck with a 454 that had warped manifolds. They were REALLY warped and there was just no way to seal them up. A guy suggested...
Thanks for all the ideas. Certainly some stuff to consider.
Thanks. I've looked into the saddle tanks and they don't interest me. I actually like the look of the 32 tank. While I'm concerned enough to...
I'm going to be making some changes to my 28 A sedan, specifically with the fuel tank but have a few concerns. Right now the tank is behind the...
I did a search and didn't find this link so for those that haven't seen it http://theoldmotor.com/
I had a set of wires made last winter. Both Bob and Chris are very knowledgeable and great to deal with. The wheels are very nice. The only issue...

Interesting. I buy my cars pretty much finished then make a few changes to personal taste rather than building..........because it is more cost...
With all due respect, threads like this wouldn't be so boring, repetitious, tedious and overdone if people would just answer the questions asked...
The question asked being " Can I weld up the scars on the spindle then have it machined to size?", of course you CAN. The follow up question...
So their livers will be OK if they swallow the penny on purpose?.
Or a "classic"?
I would think that if there was a '70 Challenger or a 57 Nomad in there, those would have been mentioned in the article. If they are going to...
"Two mighty Mopar classics"????? a 67 and 75 fury???. The outbuilding contains more "classics" such as "a Chevrolet LUV, a (Dodge) Warlock and Red...
