I was recently looking for an oddball setup and found many videos on YouTube for making your own. Probably the route I'm going to take. Might be...
I'll pay scrap value for a few 235 heads and the freight to ship them out. Plus a little kickback to boot. Reading the stories online I don't...
Some how the mouse got corn all the way to the top of the pistons. Hopefully at least the block is salvageable. Dropping the head off later this...
My plan is to start with the head. I'm going to pull it this week and have it hot-tanked and checked for cracks. From what I've been reading I...
Pulled the valve cover today and it's gonna need a complete rebuild. Time to start stripping things down and hoping for no cracks. Pretty sure a...
Mine, the plastic wrapped one, has the "captains bars" and is date coded 1958. I really wanted the insert style bearings and other upgrades after...
I gotta stay off eBay... After reading more posts and articles than I can count I decided on a dual carb setup. Since I'm in Colorado the...
That's rad! I just read that whole thread last night. His is top notch, I am blown away. Mine is going to be pretty straightforward build just...
It's been a while... Over the winter tried to get the old 194 running well enough that I could run it in my small town fall parade but it seemed...
On the details page, it says you can take what you want and leave the rest. I know there are a couple of things I am bidding on for just parts...
I'll definitely have to snag myself a copy! I don't buy many magazines but do collect ones with Chevys in them as they seem to be somewhat rare.
Ok, so the front main cap ended up being thrashed due to being torqued down to a bent front motor plate. I found a new cap, and clearance checks...
Mine is an early stovebolt 194. Not the later Turbo-thrift 194. I don't think much if anything interchanges between the 30s and 60s 194s.
I drug this 1930 home late July. I traded a bike for it. Runs and drives but just found out my front crank bearing cap is cracked and it pukes...
Subscribed, I'm excited to see another Chevy being built. I didn't realize how little interest the Chevy's generated when I traded for mine this...
That's rad! Thanks for including the issue info, I found a copy of eBay. I'm super excited to read the article. Still looking for inspiration...
Hey even better! Style-wise ver close to what I what like to go for with my 30 chevy sport roadster.
This one is a GMC but I would love to see more of it![ATTACH]
There were a few good shots on my recent post for my 1930 Chevy: Jimmy B posted this beauty: [ATTACH] 31APickup with this one: [ATTACH] And...
Back when I worked for a NASCAR team we used "oilboard" for templates. Rigid enough to hold it's shape, flexible enough to work.
I know where there is a 29 coupe but no more roadsters...
Yep, 19s. I had read that about later hydraulics. I've got a line on another 1930 rolling chassis. I think the plan is to snag it also to build...
Oooh now that I like. If the wheels are original to the car it would be a 30 from my understanding. Definitely something to strive for. Looks...
The first order of business was pulling the gas tank and radiator to get them boiled out. I had noticed a bunch of sediment in the bowl on the...
Hey, I joined this club today. No termites yet and relatively solid wood. We're gonna start off with a pretty basic strip down of...
Hey, I haven't been here in a while, been busy building bikes. I wasn't looking to get back into hot rods but got a pretty solid deal on a...
**** Two people say they want this. I'll leave the ad up until someone drags out outta my mom's yard and add anyone else into the line. - thanks,...
bump
$500 and drag her away. So I left North Carolina 6 years ago and my 1950 project is rotting. I had started a chop and replaced the rockers when...
One I took a few years ago at the Heavy Rebel Weekender. [IMG]
