The Jalopy Journal
This was in my box of leftover 39-46 Chevy truck parts, but I can't find a pic that matches it on line, so I'm guessing it's from some other...
This is my dad's AA--originally had a dump body. Sheet metal and dump body are not available. This much of it has been sitting for as long as I've...
Hey--haven't posted in a while. Life, etc. But I picked up a cool cabinet at a flea market this weekend and wanted to know if anybody could ID the...
I need to flatten some lengths of copper tube for a project, and haven't figured out the best way to do it. I want to start with some 3/8 or 1/2"...
Due to the overwhelming response to my little Hot Rodding is Dead video, I decided to make an auction out of it. Several people have PMd me...
Here's a little something I've been working on for a while now. I started last summer but time and tech problems really slowed me down. I think...

Carburetors! [IMG] One of the guys in my office is into 1930's Packards, and had these running on his car on a homemade manifold about 20...
So I put a new door skin (or the bottom 3" of a door skin) on my truck's driver's door, and it's all caved in along the weld. I had it fit with...
A little something to get you guys through these cold winter months--some film I shot at last year's Jalopy Showdown. This was done on Super 8, so...
I'm giving up on making patches for my truck doors, and am going to buy skins for them, cut them to where the rust ends, and weld them in. I see...
I talked to a local media blast shop this morning about getting the cab and front sheetmetal of my truck blasted and painted. I keep finding more...
So these are lousy pics, but I was sneaking around in the woods on somebody else's land, and the mosquitos were fierce. I saw this stuff about 12...
Has anybody seen these rims on a traditionally-styled car? Does it "work" visually? I know they're relatively new, and I haven't seen any on the...
Anybody know if this is a rain-or-shine event? I've never been before, and am trying to decide if it's worth getting up at oh-dark-thirty to drive...
So I'm tearing this column apart, and before I break out the cold chisels and sawzalls, thought I'd ask if anybody knows how it's put together. I...
I was headed to Connecticut today to pick up some heads for the rod, and heard about this place Steve's outside Worcester. My crappy camera phone...

Any suggestions for a plating shop in New England, preferably between Boston and Maine? I've got a few trim pieces on the truck that need...
Hopefully I get started on the new project next weekend- '39 Chevy with a Camaro subframe already installed. First order of business is to box in...
So I'm trying REAL hard to avoid the 350/350 temptation for a soon-to-be-mine '39 Chevy, and I see an Olds 215 in the local classifieds. I like...
So I'm going to check out a '39 Chevy truck tonight that's had a Camaro front subframe installed. I know how to look for rust and lakes of Bondo,...
