Very cool ! Yep that's about right on the citations. Is that a Stude? Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
If you happen to have a WCFB carb, this may be your problem. My '58 vette did the drying on any hard left turns, this fixed it.
My " 'ol man" patiently awaiting his new ride. I'd better hurry, he ain't getting any younger.
I forgot to ask, are you working on a 4dr or 2dr sedan? I may have one 2dr door I might be able to pull a pattern off, if it has a bottom. I'll...

Have you checked o'l Hank's place out east of Dodge? Mostly late 30's through mid 60's. If you do, never try to low ball him or you will get run...
Interesting place isn't it. He is a hell of a nice guy. Did he give you a history leason on the area? If not ask next time you are out there. I...
The Van Sickel now comes in Satin black. You can get it at the farm supply stores, and the hardner is availible. We have used it several times...
I've built many for my cars with no problems. I try to fit them tight to the outside and giving a reasonable clearance from my head. I figure if I...
Here is a pic of Issac's #8 that Herb drove. Dale Reed at the time drove #6. And years later Herb when he drove for Nance. Posted using the Full...
This one #2 was reproduced a few years back, I believe by Roger Barnet. When they got it I know the body was to bad to use. My dad Roy Sammons and...
Installed one in my buddies '55 chevy 2 1/2 yrs. ago. Discussed the slightly cheaper 500, but because he was going to put a very stout 327 high...
