The Jalopy Journal
I think you and a couple others missed the point of my posting those pics. They weren't meant to compare to the coupe in this thread, but as a...
That is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever read here on the HAMB. Think of all the classic hot rods over the years, all the AMBR winners,...
And in that case it worked, those angled stripes on a big flat panel with next to no lines added something for the eyes to follow; and they didn't...
You mean something like this? [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] Or maybe something like this? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I'm curious, if I may be so bold as to ask, do you really find the paint scheme aesthetically pleasing? Seriously? If that car had totally off...
Sorry guy, but the aesthetics of that paint job just suck. It's obviously a very well done, high dollar, pro shop built car, with the best of...
That's cool, but not a highboy
This!
Leaving springs under tension does not weaken the steel in the spring, it is repeated compression cycles that weakens the steel, not sitting still...
I guess it's a lifestyle, but it doesn't take center place in my life. I don't do the crew cuts or duck tail hair thing though, I leave that to...
That sedan belongs to @mctim64, I shot that pic at the GNRS this year
I still have one stashed away somewhere. At the time we were amazed at the technology
Cheese it guys, here come the cops!
I typically like them tall and skinny, but aint nothing wrong with these fat tire'd high boy's [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
That looks like a blast!
How about this? Is this safe? :D :D :D [IMG]
What could possibly go wrong? I bet you were the safety guy at work too, right? :D :D :D
I guess I've been mispronouncing words all my life, because I add the b to the end of words like comb, bomb, tomb, and definitely to HAMB. It...
I've been using one of these Holley regulators for a number of years, after 2 of the dial type regulators failed on me and started spraying fuel....
I'm sorry man, I don't want to criticize you, but those straps aren't going to do shit. Think about it, if you have 4000 #'s of car sitting on...
Not with soft wood! You guys seem to be missing this critical detail. The wood used in the cribbing you cite is hardwood. Big difference. There is...
It fits in the "Driveway Paint Job" category too[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Which has greater structural strength, wood or fiberglass? "The compression strength of industrial fiberglass is almost 17 times that of the same...
Yeah, and rat rod guys probably say the same thing when they are criticized for the poor engineering they use in their builds. Come on, we should...
Man, those look scary! I would not be crawling under a car resting on those stands. in fact most of the stands posted I wouldn't trust, the...
Thank you Brenda for letting us know. Get well Danny! Hope to see you back on here soon.
Same here. After a 4 hour drive with the bare wheel my hands hurt, the muscles and ligaments were tired and sore; I needed a larger diameter to...
Using soft wood like pine scares me, we always used hard wood when using cribbing to block equipment up in the air. I guess on an early Ford that...
LOL! How the eff did you get rope burns? That's funny. I've been driving my 47 with the rope wrapped wheel for a couple of years now, it's very...
I'm saying attempting to slow the rate of flow will not result in reduced temperatures; increased flow rates are more efficient at reducing temps,...
