The Jalopy Journal
Thank you. If I were building my own from scratch it would be stock. This has been a long challenging project to try and find balance between his...
I haven't been posting much. I know this isn't the sort of build this forum is about, but it's the forum I love, so I'll keep sharing until I'm...
What is the strength of the citric acid you bought? Are we talking 5% or 100%USP pure? This will change how you mix it. Sent from my SM-G950U1...
All, I presume that you've all left this thread for dead but alas it is not! This past weekend I was actually home, and got some "stuff" done. I...
I don't mind chemicals. ;-) And the sawdust absorbs well enough, it's just annoying. Lol Sent from my SM-G930F using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
So an update on my cramped spaces... I decided to build a shed for the purposes of wood working. This will move the lathe, spindle sander, both...
I blame some of my build delay to the limited space I have. Lol [IMG] Sent from my SM-G930F using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Man, talk about a cold shoulder. LOL None the less, I made more progress today. Fabbed a new cross member. I used 1" heavy wall for mock-up, but...
So here I am, 3 years later and I'm just now getting serious about pedals. You weren't kidding about the complications of changing the pedals...
I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for showing more technical steps of your work. Most chop threads jump from mock up to completed metal...
I would have never thought it would take me this long to build a truck. Just a little update... I'm on my third engine mount design. I think...
I'm sorry the picture is less than awesome. It doesn't look like much has happened, but that's a lesson I'm learning. I know a lot has moved...
Well then. LOL Learn something new every day, and occasionally more than 1 thing. In the big folder of stuff that I received when my step-dad...
Sorry, I just assumed that a simple box for box swap wouldn't require the 1-off setup details. Technically, what you're looking at is 1991 Ford...
Here is an image that almost shows the box. I may have other pictures, and will keep looking. Perhaps I'll find a cell phone photo.
I've been looking for that answer for a LONG time, I cannot express my gratitude enough. For the bonus round, is there any chance you would have...
I could use a hand identifying this steering box. It's origin is unknown, other than it came with my Studebaker. Any help would be appreciated!...
I finally got around to working on the motor again. New water pump, new power steering pump, and the first pieces from the March Performance...
More parts came today. I received the 700R4 mount, a Holly Blue fuel pump, a high torque starter and an air filter. I love getting packages. It...
Seats! From what I believe was a 2000 Chrysler Concorde convertible. Power, memory and heated.
Made a great score today! Found a pair of heated, motorized Chrysler seats for $75 ea! Now to fab up the mounts so I can place the column and...
I may not be following well, so I'd like to confirm, you are saying that an under floor setup may be the easier route, due to the dash...
Jack, I figured as much, hence the cries for help. ;-) I'm way beyond the original engine and original brake system. With the SBC and 4-wheel...
Nice truck! I've received the steering column from ididit, now I'm sourcing items like the transmission mount, fuel pump, etc. I could use some...
While I do not have much eye-candy to share, I did place an order for the flex-plate, ARP flex-plate bolts, and some Doug's D304 ceramic coated...
Yes, that's my 8yo son. I'm trying to ensure that he gets an early start to his love for things that burn fuel. :)
Here is an image of the 3D model I made for the gauges.
I have also began work on instrumentation. I can't decide which route to go. I have found a few people that advertise gauge restoration, but they...
Sorry, but work "allows" me to travel every other week, and by allow I mean forces. This means that progress has been slow. I have made a...
Here is what I need to deal with... [IMG]
