The Jalopy Journal
Thanks for all the responses. I pulled the generator off today and took it into to be checked. The gen pulley shaft had a lot of in/out play in it...
Ok, ok we have the jokes. But only one opinion? Has the HAMB gone soft? ;)
Thanks for your reply. I have polarized it (several times). I didn't think the orientation would matter when I mounted it but with a rebuilt...
Simple question I hope. Can you mount a Ford 12V voltage regulator upside down (cover facing down) or will this effect its function? I have a...
Thanks for your hard work, show was awesome.
Thanks guys, while using the calculator I kept thinking I was calculating a ratio off of the gear I'll be using the least. With most of my...
Thanks guys, I appreciate all of your input. After playing with the ratio calculator I'm thinking a 3.70 or 3.89 (two choices I have available)....
Sidevalve8ba, I do have a .72 overdrive ratio.
Thanks oldman41, I wish I had the option of trying out different ratios but I'm hoping to get it close on the first shot, optimistic I know....
Thanks MBog, just the kind of info I was looking for.
Hi guys, I have a close to stock flathead with T5 conversion (3.76 gear set) in my 31 Ford pu. The time has come for me to select a gear ratio...
Thanks for sharing, awesome pics.
Awesome video. I just love the MG TD as a tow vehicle.
Nothing better than a good road trip. We'll look for you out on the salt.
Time spent in any of Utah's National Parks is time well spent. Canyonlands N.P. is my favorite, but Arches is also a must see. Take your time...
Awesome video. Does anyone know where the Corvettes in the video are today?
I'll do $500, but if I go any lower I might actually be buying the car.
If you send me $4000, I'll take your coupe off your hands!
I use an electric hoist supported by my garage rafters to lift my model A body on and off the frame. I don't have any pics, but it works really well.
I started building my A-V8 four years ago. I'm sure it won't be done in another four years, but for me building the car is most of the fun.
Looks awesome, I can't wait to see it out on the salt!
When I drive my 53 MG I always get "nice car, is it a real one?. I hate that question, does my car really look like a shitty VW with a fiberglass...
Holy crap...a HAMB meet, how did I miss this! When/where did that happen. I'm always the last guy to know.
These are the only other pics. Excuse the artsy shots, sometimes they turn out cool.
Some of my favorite pics/cars of the show. It just gets bigger and better every year!...now if I could only figure out how to take color pictures...
I've always thought that it makes more since to own 1 or 2 really nice cars instead of many unfinished cars. I must admit though that if I had...
My catalogs show different bearing part#'s for the 300 and 401. I'm guessing they're different.
Doesn't look any worse than some of the crap I've dragged home over the years.
I would look for a running car of a vintage you like. As with all old cars, even if they're running there will always be things to fix and...
