I can understand your frustration. Most of us aren't trying to be assholes. You also have to understand the attendee's frustration. You...
Thanks. The wife and I had a great time. We will be back next year. I remember you passing me by Anamosa, I believe. That old Ford was movin!
I have no issues with whatever call is made since it ain't my show. But consistency is needed. I don't know many "period correct" cars with...
Had a great time, but almost didn't get into the "traditional" area because my Rouges were painted. Seriously. Need to know if this will be an...
Okey dokey. The verbiage regarding the "street rod" provision is somewhat vague. The application for title does not ask if the car is a street...
Kinda -- but not really -- OT. What if you have a title but no VIN tag on the vehicle? I'm currently looking at a '40 Chevy in Oregon that no...
Well, that shows how long it's been since I've been to East Dubuque. :rolleyes:
Yep, we use to race hobby stock there in high school. Of course that was 20 years ago. Haven't been back to that track since. We had a G-body...
We all know why East Dubuque will be popular! :D
Though the Maquoketa drive is a little more scenic than the Dubuque drive will be. BTW, what's Maquoketa's "issue"? They not need the extra...
I use my '48 as a shelf.
I'm out...for the second year in a row. The 292 decided to form a leak in the thermostat housing/water neck. Tried everything and I can't get it...
Waubeek? Hell, I'm over in Marion. We're pretty much neighbors.
Here's another option for camping. Central Park in Jones County. They have electric and primitive camping spots. The park is 30 miles from...
Should be there with the '48. Why does it take 90% of your time to do 5% of the build?
Finishing up the trans rebuild. Just need to get the driveshaft ordered and we're done...I think ;)
Nice! I'd post pictures, but I'd prolly get yelled at. :D
You are correct, but I am cheap. The one-barrel on it was junk and a new carb/intake was more than I wanted to spend on the build. It runs great...
If you're look for something cheap, then TransDapt makes a one-to-two barrel adapter. I used one of these on my 292 and put a Rochester 2G on it.
I use this stuff on my OT drag car. It's made for wood stoves, works great and is far cheaper than the Permatex stuff....
And your point is?
The amount of air that is cooled is proportional to the surface area of the i/c core. I have an OT drag car that runs a Morris 372 SBC with an F1...
If you look at promod racing, then you'll see that almost all of the fastest cars run blown alcohol setups with PSI screw blowers. They can move...
Anybody busting nuts to get their rods done for the Fest?
This is what I did on my '48. The calipers clear with 1/2" of clearance on a 15" wheel. [IMG]
Check out the latest Car Craft. It seems that some third-gen Camaros came with rear discs and 15" wheels. The brackets (supposedly) fit older 10...
How long was the engine running? It could be just condensation.
If you don't mind me asking, what did that bench seat come out of? Sweet ride!!!
SOMETIMES is smells like Cap'N Crunch or maple oatmeal in downtown CR. Those are the good days :D
