OK, this thread is full of good wide five info so i,m subscribed now with this post :rolleyes: . Easier to find in the future :oops:.
9 out of 10 times you could guess the origins of a 50s or 60s British kitcar by the wheels. More often than not those Ford Anglia, Pop, Prefect...
Sure is :rolleyes: . Here the emergency brake must work on both rear wheels which ofcourse is its, real purpose. My original question was , does...
Jon, carefull, flatheads are addictive, Next you will be searching for the bigger flathead V8 and after that the V12 flathead, :D
Nuts and bolts in cleaning vinegar here. Hardend steel springs for carb throtles or other sorts of small springs can,t just stay in your bucket...
Looks good. Spindle mount front wheels :cool:, fancy
Certainly not like what you have. You could just about put two Simca 5/Topo bodies next to each other on that rear axle.
This Aussie '34 Ford ute sort of fits in here. It,s in the dunes ( or desert as kids are,nt dressed for the beach ) . Also has what look like...
Bet there are plenty of guys here who would like to see the A40 Coupe or at least the new body. The Austin A40 is often seen in old black and...
Don,t waste to much time searching those Simca models, 5 and 6 are the same as Topolino and 8 is just a little larger.
To keep K-13s explanation simple , get a round plastic bucket and pull out two sides by hand and see what happens. Yeah i know , does a round...
Nice project. I had one of those 20 odd years ago. It,s now with another Dutch hamb member. btw, did that one brake drum on the truck stay there...
How would this go for a roadworthy certificate check ? Would,nt this just hold one wheel of the rear axle ? Would it allways be the same wheel ?
If you have the space cut them lengthwise as the OP did. . If your short on space cut off in the width front and back.
Kiwi is faster :D
Do you mean the edge of the drum where people force a big screwdriver between drum and backingplate in a effort to pry drum loose ? A small...
This looks like a mid 1920s Buick cowl and chassis with a mid 1930s Chevy coupe body with the trunk cut off and replaced with a crude pickup bed....
Early Mad Max o_O
Two more for comparison. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Well they sure fucked that up :oops:, heres the before pic . Looks like it started as a 1918 - 20 Dodge Brothers Roadster with a shorty trunk....
Closest i have are these two bumper ends about 15 inches long. Anyone recognise what car they are from ? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A backyard with character :rolleyes: .
Some fancy fenders and a centre fin down to the rear for some style and high speed stability. Get the wheelbase back to original :D [ATTACH]...
Wonder what the story is with the Renault. I,ve had quite a few vintage Pre-War Renault over here in the last 40 years. Most common is the 1928 to...
The Kaiser Frazer Jeeps had a 60 mph speedo. Wonder if there was a fancy civilian version with the above gauges.
Sure does. Also looks like real road racing and not speedway stockcar bash ém up racing. Notice the thick safety cable as barrier .
