I haven't been in a few years and can't go again this year, but this is the best show in Texas. I prefer it over the LSRU and the HRR. To me, this...
I would contact BillyT here on the HAMB. He is from Dublin which is right down the road from Comanche. He could talk to an old hotrodder named...
Me and my wife go to them all the time. Sometimes you can find good deals. Most of our furniture is antique. It's funny how you can get some nice...
Sorry to hear about L.H. I am guessing Francis is doing alright? If you are in Tolar, you might check out Tarleton's Engineering Technology...
Well I screwed that up and was reading the hamb from Clints phone and not mine! Doh!! Brandy
July of 2010.....I gots hitched to a Texan, it was only natural that I drop it like it's hot and slide on outta Cali. :)
Thanks everybody!!! Y'all should be thankful I'm wearing a mask! Lol.
Lakes style 33-34 coupes really do it for me. You are a very lucky man with one gorgeous car. Congrats! Can't wait to see more pics and more progress.
Uh oh! I better actually reply to this one! I love you and happy birthday! :D
Sweet truck. I would totally have to change my nickname though. At least tell everyone to call me "Transmission John". Lol.
Are DVDs available for this? Us po' folks don't even have cable much less HD. Lol.
I love art. I have a bunch of posters, photographs, and weesner prints in my shop. I would LOVE to have an original weesner painting, but simply...
R.C. at the North Central Speed Shop in Clifton does. PM him on the HAMB.
Got one too.
If it's not a full pen (penetration) weld then you can get longitudinal cracking like that. Also, or even more so, if you grind it too much. I...
My dad made one from 2 '40 ford hoods welded together too. He said it was the best boat for running trotlines he ever had.
Lol. Damn, I miss that truck!
Looks like folks will miss the elusive Brandy once again!
If I had a choice between a 3 jaw or 4 jaw, I would take the 4 jaw anyday. A 3 jaw is nice and fast, but they aren't as accurate. The first half a...
The purchase of a used lathe is usually not what sets you back a bunch of $: it's the tooling that winds up costing you. The extras are probably...
Do a search on the Waco Kid and it may pull something up on this roadster. I'm with you, this is one of my all time favorite roadsters, but I'm...
Damn, I had to get a 7 1/4. What about us poor pinheads? We're people, too! Oh well, if it don't fit, I can always give it away as a present.
That is a buddy's uncle's car. I'll try to post some pics of it tomorrow. If you want some more info on the car, let me know what you want and I...
I know you don't want to hear this AGAIN, but taking off another 1/2" is no big deal in the overall scheme of things and will make your life...
DRO=Digital Read Out. Instead of reading the micrometer dials on the handles of a mill, you can use a dro which will tell you where you are in...
This is the first I've heard about this as well. I was wondering why I hadn't seen a post from him on the Chip Maker's social group in a while....
Melt some candlewax in the threads. Works pretty good. If that doesn't work take an old crappy screwdriver and mig weld it on the screw. It needs...
If you use a grinder and a cut off wheel, be careful. Seen some accidents and some close calls with them over the years while working in the...
Truer words were never spoken. That's exactly how I feel. Some people might get pissed at me for this but the creation of an object from scratch...
A rolling bones style coupe is freaking hard to beat. I LOVE those coupes. I like chocolate myself. Vanilla is good too but a little too plain...
Separate names with a comma.
