The Jalopy Journal
Haha, I may end up with e-copies yo ucan have. Where abouts are you? I'm heading to the GTA.
Thanks, I've thought about that, but if at all possible I want to keep them intact. All or nothing kinda deal....may still do that in the end if...
I've come to point where I am going to have to move transatlantic (from UK back to Canada) and am having a really hard time deciding what needs to...
Going to be there today!
Anyone ever done anything with these? There are still plenty of them roaming the streets, and you can get them for very cheap. Lots of classic...
I'd like to know about this too, since you can get some nice narrow 18 inch steelies in some light duty SUVs that would look right at home on a...
A semi OT addition to this thread, but I thought that people might find it interesting anyways. Seems that you can get a set of dual overhead cam...
That is sooooo nice!
Brakes...ha! That one's a classic! I had a non-boater friend ask me that once when I was teaching him to use an outboard....of course, that...
That sounds like a significant overbore, are you sure that wouldn't cut into any water passages, or threads ect? If I remember correctly, the...
Looks small to me, possibly V8-60, but I'm no expert. I'd be concerned about the machined surfaces not having good material left for refinishing....
The SBC in the other car (bottom right photo) looks positively puny next to that thing! I hope you have some kind of power steering, otherwise I...
I would love to know more about the wheels on this one, are they some kind of really big donut spare from new cars?? Never seen anything like ´em
I wasn't suggesting it to be my problem, just that there might be people like that.
Thanks for the link...absolutely checking that out....got me one of those Revel 1/8 Scale 32 roadsters that needs some real engine sounds!
I wish someone would start selling those as kits, it would be so cool to assemble and run something like that. Especially for people who want to...
Excellent work! Just curious though, when you layer the rails like that, are you going to do anything to prevent rust forming between them? It...
Really seems like more of a frequently published book than a magazine to me. Good stuff.
An abandoned Olds... the dash & column look good enough to save, maybe some other stuff too. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
I forgot to add, that there are lots of little get togethers here and there in the summer. I have plenty of pics once I dig em up.
Tell her to look up a resto shop/sales place called Triangle motors co. That should settle the no cool cars argument. also she should go to...
thanks for all the replies guys! Just one thing...nobody really commented yet on if that metal he is using is a particularly bad base material...
Came accross this on the net not long ago. Seems that this guy is making bodies out of rolls of steel and slapping them on to beat up old cars to...
Awesome stuff!
Great colour!
So what happened to the car? I hope you got it. We need pics!!
The 60's show car in bare metal looks mighty interesting...anyone know more about this thing? New build, or re-build of an old one?
Yikes, I was thinking high, but not that high. I just wouldn't want to wait for a boat if I bought a rod over in the US. I would want it now! :)
Feeling very tempted by the beneficial exchange rate right now to pick up a nice rod in the states and ship it over here. Don't really feel like...
seriously?!? That's awesome....who wants to grab me something and send it here...:)
