The Jalopy Journal
I hadn't taken the time to even glance at the HAMB much over the past few months. Work, family, crap, no hotrods... Same old shit. Sunday before...
He said "sister". Now, if he were in the Ozarks that might mean the same thing...
Ugly or not, it must have a hell of a mill in it. Look at the windshield, it's got a 10.90 dial-in!:D
No, but it helps to know the password and the secret HAMB handshake.:D
Glad to see that DIY spirit is alive and well.:rolleyes: Stay the course. Get your hands dirty, and ask lots of questions. That, I believe,...
Does your MC look like this? Is there a remote reservoir, or is that the whole thing? Don't know anything about these guys, but they seem to...
New goes for $120 and up at rockauto.com Good idea to check your local NAPA, or similar. If you go to Advance, Pep Boys, or the like, the kid...
The best thing about it is that after a couple of parking lot "love taps", it will be time to go under the knife. Chopped top, fender skirts,...
Thank you El Caballo. It's such a good feeling to have remembered something correctly.
Many folk swear by PC-7. Having used it, I have to agree. Because it is water soluble, you can wet your (gloved) fingertips and feather it to...
Isn't there also an issue with input shaft length? Thought I read where you could either trim the input shaft slightly, or there is an...
Can you pump the brakes and get any pedal at all? Hate to ask a silly question, but have you checked the brake fluid level? I have to concur...
You might also try to find a local HAMB member, buy a six-pack or two (or four), invite them over, and ask them to show you how to adjust your...

I have ordered quite a few items from Vintage Speed, but all through eBay. They always say that they will take two or more weeks to ship, and...
ClassGlass Performance offers a stock width '27, or a 3 inch wider version. Before I bought my coupe, I got real close to buying from them....
Just a few blocks north of your house, I think. West side of Blue Ridge, on 79th Street.
Here's an old thread from the good old HAMB. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=189251
Lots of hits on a Google search for "reliability run". Including video, dates, and activities.
Several threads on steering wheels here on the HAMB. I think most guys just sand them down, but someone recommended blasting the inner steel for...
Tim, I'm not more than a mile from you, by the sounds of it. If you need any help, let me know. I'm half-useless, but willing.
Fantastic thread, and a build to be proud of. Dreddy, when you have a chance to look back through the build photos, could you see if you have...
I second the GarageJournal suggestion. Once you get over the envy of some of those fellows' shops, there are some really neat ideas to borrow.
I thought it was used as a snipe hunting rig during WWII, when food was scarce due to rationing. While out on a hunt, the muffler bearing spun,...
I didn't get an e-mail, and I've done business with Cory. I bought one of the brake/clutch/master units, and it's really nice. Hoping to do...
I probably overdid it, but I used some 4130 tubing, flared the outer end, and brazed it into the backing plate.
I'm in Missouri! Covered in snow and pissed off.
I have a question for those of you who have used molasses in colder climes. In a 7:1 solution, do you require a lot of heat to keep it from...
I'm guessing that white carpet edging stays clean if it's not in a daily driver. And, in the pre-internet days, there were quite a few more...
I can't believe you just said "HAMBburglar". Fifteen yard penalty. Do not pass GO.
