I think it all boils down to money. Prices for everything have just gone up over the years. You used to be able to buy 30s and 40s cars for a few...
Haha thanks! I've been blessed for sure. :)
Welcome from Topeka. I've also got a '37 Chevy pickup that I'll be building here shortly. Good luck to you on yours.
Well there's a 78 Chevy truck sitting with a 350/350 that I can pull and get running with hopefully minor work. I would love to find a 5 or even 6...
Haha good call. I may be a little too *ahem* busy the first year anyways to get a whole lot of shop time in. :P
Thanks guys. I'm getting closer to closing on the house...there are so many hoops to jump through. The first thing I'm going to do after I take...

Well if ya ever get down towards KS, give me a holler!
Ok, I know the FNG is dragging up a post from the dead, but reading this at work, I had to laugh out loud. Too funny! But I do have a question...

Old Cars: 1. 1928/29 Ford Sport Coupe - body only 2. 1930 Chevy 4 door Sedan - complete 3. Late 20s/early 30s International 1 1/2 ton truck...
Yeah, the huge barn would be nice...have all the old JD two cylinders on one side, the old cars on the other, and workspace in the middle. :cool:...
Haha! Very true! I'd better enjoy the freedom while it lasts.
That is some good advice. One of my ideas (i've probably got way too many ideas and too much ambition. lol) was to take the old '47 International...
Yeah I do need to get them undercover and protected. I am amazed at the quality of steel in those old bodies. They've sat out for at least 30...
I'm liking the idea of starting with the truck, then building a sweet hot rod out of the sport coupe. I'm thinking the Humpback will be on the...
I've been a fan of hot rods for as long as I remember. Living on a farm, I am extremely lucky in that my Grandpa kept every single car he ever...
Thanks! That's good to know. Not sure where it came from, since I don't remember my grandpa ever talking about having a '33 Chevy.
Hello fellow Hambers, I've got an old chevy front grille that I'm not sure what year or type of vehicle it came off of, so any help in...

Haha I'm sure you'd like that! See if you were nice, you'd offer to give me that extra chassis, so I could get the old girl back on the road. lol
Hey y'all. So back behind one of the old sheds at the farm, there's always been a car body and front clip sitting back there. Dad remembered them...
