Hmm, yeah it's sure looking like a no-go. That's too bad. The 235 and the later 230 are different animals and those cast Fenton jobbies won't...
Bump. Any other knowledgable opinions out there? Sounds like it's a "no" but as usual, there's a hint of "yes" in the mix. I'd love to hear a...
I have a '64 230 straight 6 in my '50 Chevy and I'm wondering if intake and exhaust manifolds from the Pontiac Sprint 6 motor will fit on the...
Well, it's not Sunday, and it's not 100% HAMB friendly, but it is a 59 Caddy, so that's something. [IMG] Smile and the wastelands smile with...
Well I'll be damned. Every day really is a school day. I always thought that photo was some sort of clever negative/positive image composite...
Cleatus once said (it may have been his sig line at one time) that being "done" was not his goal. I like that a lot.
Damn, I love that Sasquatch fur! Excellent work. Thanks for posting. Very inspirational.
Star Wars. 1977, I was 4. Life changing.
Pretty slick way to raise $100K of debt-free capital in under 2 hours. I snagged one too and am looking forward to the next 20 years of TRJ, in...
If it was easy everybody would be doing it. What's the plan for the rear window?
So how do you keep metal shavings out of the tank when cutting the filler neck to re-route it? Do you have to drop and flush the tank after doing...
My car also uses a pull-cable to trip the latch, but it is sort of "inverted" so the latch mechanism is on the body and just the striker loop is...
Music isn't even an option in my car. Between the loud engine, the wind noise around every opening and the rattles from everywhere, I couldn't...
Whiplash, I think the large front tires are a trick of the slight fish-eye lens effect in the photos. I've seen most if these cars in person and...
If you decide to switch to skirts, I don't recommend cutting your own gender openings. That usually involves a trip to Sweeden.
Yup. Front window moulding is the same too. Stainless goes into the groove in the rubber before the rubber goes into the car....
Any suggestions on how far to keep the pipes away from painted surfaces to prevent burning the paint?
It's a 1:43 die cast piece. Real nice up close.
Here's some HAMB friendly stuff from my club meeting last night [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
What's a Henweigh?
Spend a little more and get a dual-action gun. They let you control both the paint flow and the air flow from the trigger while you paint. Much...
Great stuff, guys. I love this thread. Keep it rolling!
I have a radio for my car with about 5 push buttons that are crumbling all to hell. I was thinking about patching them up with model car...
Love it. Great work on the skirts, you are very right about the OE skirts being too short. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Here's an AMT 49 Merc I've been monkeying with: [IMG] And a resin 50 Olds sedan getting abused too; [IMG] Cool stuff as always guys. Posted...
Please tell me you're going to reuse the snow leopard seat covers! They're so wrong they're right. Nice work so far, looking forward to seeing...
Have you checked under the car to see if it's still there? My 50 was converted to a powerglide by the PO and the original clutch pedal arm was...
Always open to more advice, thanks! I think I will leave the final glass install to the guy who is cutting it for me. He'll warranty the work...
Yes, I just went back and re-read my earlier post, and I didn't really explain what I was thinking very well. Sorry for the confusion. I...
Sorry, I must not have been clear before. I understand that the new top edge of the cut-down glass will need to be narrowed to fit the top of the...
