I started using the parts store's website to order it, then go pick it up. It may be cheaper somewhere else but we need parts stores to continue...
So I bought a Felpro rubber one-piece crush-proof gasket and used that. It was only slightly different than the gasket from Speedway, but I got in...
I just ordered the Fel-Pro from the local auto part store and can pick it up in 30 minutes. I really hope this one is an exact match. I can't get...
Thanks Lynn, very generous! If I have to get end seals anyway I think I'll get a one-piece. I never used one before but am going to give it a shot.
I had it on so the dipstick would end up in the relief designed in the gasket. I didn't take any pics and can't at the moment. This is why I'm...

I have a conundrum! I ordered an oil pan gasket from Speedway for what I thought was a '77 350. When I took off the pan and old gasket, and then...
Wow! This is all great! Thank you!!
Good morning, I have a superbelle 4” drop, 47” kingpin to kingpin that I bought as part of a package. I’m not exactly sure what everything is...
I have a rear axle that I bought as a package out of a running/driving car. The owner was making some upgrades so I was able to get it all at...
Can you put a paint mark on a spline, then roll the wheels while off the ground?
For anyone who is interested, the Rust Riot is this Sunday [IMG] ....and the Rats Nest Run is next weekend [IMG]
Thanks for all the advice. I will take some pics. I was kind of hoping I could take the easy way out and it would still work. I figured if I could...
Question for you guys. I have a 31 sedan body that I stripped and sprayed with a sealer a few years back. Making a dopey decision at the time, I...
Someone please take it
I have a 63 Buick LeSabre rear bumper if you, or anyone you know, want it. I don't have the car anymore and want to clean out the garage. Going to...
Beautiful cars! What is the black chopped vs the blue?

Does anyone happen to know the angle a reversed Corvair steering box sits from side to side? I'm making a bracket for it to sit on and my eyes can...
The car is downhill a bit because it's on an uneven driveway, so I took a few measurements: The back of the wishbone is 8" off the ground, and the...
This was one of the articles I researched. It seems they are talking about the original wishbone style where the pivot point is under the car, but...
I haven't figured out a wheel yet. I've been looking for some 40's or early 50's wheel. I will definitely put a gusset of sorts for extra...
That's a great idea, thanks! So if I understand this correctly, I can flip the ball joint at the front of the drag link so that it sits underneath...
This is my first build (I plan to make a thread with the whole project sooner than later) and I am at the point where I plan to put the steering...
The frame is boxed. I thought about this before I did so, but at the time I had no idea when the body would end up so I kicked the decision down...
