The Jalopy Journal
Kind of looks like an Edmunds. The name on these was on top between the carbs. It wasn't cast on the intake. It was more like engraved into the...
A few years ago I put a bunch of them in a box and took them to Carlisle and tried to sell them for a buck each. No takers. By end of the weekend...
In mid October I sent 99.97 to renew my Hot Rod deluxe subscription. A few weeks later I received an offer to extend it for another year for 30.00...
I just bought a pair of frame rails from Speedway. Cost of shipping to upstate New York was 250.00.
HRP, We haven't met yet but I'm guessing we will sometime in the future. I'll look forward to that day. Anyone who drives a deuce is my kind of guy.
I also have used peel & seal from Lowes and after the job was done I put a match to some of the scraps before throwing them in the trash. It burns...
Going to a car show. What else?
Every spring I put a pint of Mystery oil in the crankcase and another pint in the gas tank on all my older cars. Did it do any good? Darned if I...
This story reminds me of something that happened to a friend of my dad's many years ago. He won a free transmission service on the radio. This was...
Still looking for N.O.S. rear fenders for my '37 flatback. Also could use another deuce grill to hang on the wall.
I ran a 6 deuce setup on a 327 with a turbo 350 for a while. I blocked off the 2 center carbs and ran the other 4. The problem I had was that it...
I'm happy with my 3 window and tudor sedan but if I get one more it will have to be a Vicky.
At this point in my life I've managed to get just about every car I ever wanted of but there is one that got away that I still dream about. In...
Good looking car. I feel bad for the owner. I'll keep an eye out in central N.Y.
If you want a good show with nothing newer than 1948, check out the Frog Follies in Evansville Indiana August 24-26. I'm guessing here but I'd say...
When you enter the flea market, stop and buy a directory. It might help you find whatever kind of parts you are looking for.
I've been using the black face S W,s for over 40 years. I don't know when they moved production to Mexico but I've never had a problem with any of...
I agree 100%. This is probably the biggest thing to hit the hot rodding hobby since the Ala Kart turned up over 20 years ago. I, along with just...
So, any other thoughts on how much these will bring at auction? I was never a big fan of the Golden Sahara but I'd love to be the third owner of...
If you put a C3B and a C3BX side by side they look the same. Hot Rod Deluxe dyno tested several different intakes on a built 283 several years ago...
6inarow is right. '37's became popular in the mid 1980's and are still popular today. Until then they were called Fords ugly duckling and very few...
I've been running a complete C.E. chassis on my '37 Ford for close to 30 years now. Roy was a great guy to do business with and a lot of fun to...
Joe has dropped several axles for me. Never a problem with any of them.
Warm and dry weather. After that, a few small parts for my latest toy. A 1932 REO.
I'll be going in my '37 Ford. Third time for me. This has to be one of the best shows in the country.
The Brewster was built on a V8 chassis starting in 1934. While most of them were town cars, a few were produced in other body styles. There is a...
That deuce tudor, top right on the August '63 Car Craft just sold at auction for 21,000. Looks like a bargain for a car that was on at least two...
A small Indian dream catcher. It was supposed to be a key ring but I think it looks better and will last longer hanging on my mirror. I also think...
After he set the record in 1970 he and several other racers came to Vietnam to meet the troops. For me and I'm sure many others, it was the...
After attending Hershey for over fifty years I would say it is as good as it used to be. Maybe better. There are still parts for cars back into...
