haha, the front tires are mostly flat, and the body isn't mounted just yet. I just tacked it on there because I was excited to roll it out and...
These pics are a few months old, but this is the progress I've made on my RPU. Let me know what you think, and enjoy.
Last time I had it I went to the docs and he checked it out. He gave me some drops that immediately took the pain away. I saved them and had to...
I have always had good luck using just conventional oil (whatever you normally run) but I go to the GM dealer and get some E.O.S.. Engine oil...
Assuming the deck height is zero and for the specs on the piston dish, the compressed head gasket thickness should be .035". This will vary if...
Here is another site with a lot of chevy info, lots to sort through. http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/chevyresto/index.htm
Got my '28 ford cowl cleaned up and sealed waiting for steel to arrive to build the tub for my RPU.
While I was searching for interior specs on my car I ran across this website that shows specs for cars and trucks from the late thirties to the...
I thought Skratch did an awesome job stripping it though, I really enjoy his work.
Where the hell did all of this take place? I live in Allendale right across from GVSU, and try to kinda stay in touch with the hot rod scene...
[IMG] This is mine out of my IHC
Thanks, I found it in a field, pulled it home, it ran and drove when I got it. I touched up the brakes, changed the drivetrain and through some...
Here is mine I built a year ago. It is a 1951 IHC. Flipped front axle with dearched springs and a flipped rear end with homemade lowering blocks....
What Kind of engine was ran in the 32 car, does anybody know, I can't get a very good look with these pics?
Thanks for the info, it seems the consensus is to throw is away and use pretty much anything else. That is kinda what I figured but wasn't sure....
Are the original iron power glides out of a 1955 chevy even worth using or should I modernize a little bit. I have no experience with these...
Here are a few that I just finished up recently. The 55 is modeled after the car I am getting ready to build and the coupe is what it is. It is...
Standard headers will fit just fine on a set of vortec heads. I have ran them for years on a '70's small block in my pickup truck.
Hey all, I actually ran two 4-gc's on a mild small block with a tunnel ram a while ago. It worked great for cruising at 55 or 60 but just around...
Lets start at the beginning, I work at a Quaker State Performance Plus Quick Lube. My question to you guys is what do you think of the following...

Well, it could be a ride with a little tlc. Picked this up today for $760. I'm thinking maybe a straight axle and a two door conversion is in...
Exhaust, you don't need no stinking exhaust!!!
I had a 235 with a tri-carb setup, open zoomies and the stock 3-speed and rear end and it hummed up and down the road very nice at 55 or 60.
I have dealt with punk, the guy who runs the mag, he is super friendly and the mag is pretty decent. It is nice to see the midwest represented...
