The Jalopy Journal
I'm going to keep getting it. I'm not a big pro street fan but I know not every single issue will be tailored to my taste. It's always been that...
Couple solutions. Tach on the column add a gauge panel where the glovebox door would be or add gauges mounted below dash. Find a badly damaged...
My question is where's the radiator cap?
@squirrel I don't think too many people doubt your identifying ability given your track record.
I got my copy of Hot Rod today too. I also got my copy of Hemmings Classic Car.[ATTACH]
Got my quarterly Hot Rod today too. Pro street is the theme of the issue.
[ATTACH] @Ned Ludd It's not offset any more than stock. If you look closely at the exhaust it's actually very close to the frame rail. The 23 has...

You could look for a set of old General Jumbo wheels.[ATTACH]14 inch with 5x5.5 pattern
I would try to make something from tubing and some flat stock that bolted to where the trunk hinges mount going to the taillight area to try and...
@GearheadsQCE the GM 8.5 10 bolt rear would have a 30 spline yoke if I'm not mistaken. Don't know about the plastic slinger.
@The37Kid Bob, there's a whole thread on here about them.
@29Sleeper I'm with Bob, what's the story on that engine?
Same keyway on axles same key and same nut on the end of the axle. That's about all they share.
If you want to find a big shaft to machine down that has plenty of material look for a big farm tractor axle shaft. Plenty of thickness and length...
@cfmvw I always heard it but once cry once. Same meaning of course. If you have to buy 2 of the half price ones or one of the half price ones and...
@lostone instead of all the concrete and rebar why not just put slots in the ends of the tubes and use a removable section of rod or all thread...
Glad to have you back.
I'm not sure what they are using but 300M would probably work.
Definitely a very nice looking car. @Stogy I'm surprised you haven't paged me. It does look somewhat familiar.
You'll want to look into the case to look for any scoring to the case or damage to the rotors.
What? Nobody is going to ask how much a hen weighs. Has it been in use for 20 years? Or sitting on a shelf for 20 years?
@Bill's Auto Works Maybe both?
@Offset The book was Street Rodder. If I recall correctly the car was pink with copper colored wheels. I'd have to go back and read some of the...
Honestly thought I'd see a comment about the Rodders Journal shirt.
@Robert J. Palmer I seem to recall seeing something about using them in one of the old little magazines about a 1958 or 1959 issue. I don't...
@Ziggster That's Ivan Dutton he's talking to. His channel is Shed Racing. Not sure about the caps or spacing but if you put in both should find...
@sgtlethargic The Granadas and the Fairmonts came with a floor shift. I've personally seen both. I have a few of the old srod transmissions that...
@Robert J. Palmer I wish I had known you were down here.
A bit o/t but the Hemi Darts, the Ford Thunderbolt and Pontiac lightweights among others could be considered "daring" they were all about going fast.
