Haven't posted anything in a while so I thought I'd post a couple shots I took of the tiny progress I've made on my T lately. Shocks mounted...

I'm sick of the underfloor mount on my truck. To check the fluid level I either have to jack it way up and climb under so I can use my finger as...

The picture on the cover of this months Hop Up online has a picture of Don Kendals roadster (I had never seen it before). It's the only other...
I know for a while they were bumping up the cutoff year for smog checks. Used to be '66, then went to '73 I think....and started to bump a year...
Wondering if I'd be better off grinding the edge and rewelding the skin back on later...or peeling the flange back and re-crimping when I'm done?...
I've been so busy lately I haven't had any time for the HAMB. Plus my computer died on me. But I did move into my first home. Lots of work and...
I've been a little lazy (and busy with other things), but I got a bit further on the T rpu in the last couple of weeks. Kicked the back of the...
Has anyone on the board built a quarter eliptic suspension for the rear? Any pictures of setups in the rear? It seems like I can remember a...
My favorite part of the Hamb is the progress shots of peoples projects and the ideas they inspire....so I thought I'd post a couple pics of my...
Just about finished my little ironhead and thought I'd post a couple of photos before I beat the shit out of it. I painted the tank and...
That wouldn't mind having a set of frame rails shipped to 'em. Preferably in San Jose or Santa Cruz. They need to be truck shipped and I don't...
I tried to host through photobucket, and it tells me the image has to be less than 80x80 pixels. Even when I get the picture less than 5KB. I...
