I’m starting to go through some old parts I have accumulated trying to determine what they are from. Any help on identifying these will be...
thanks to all who posted. I've been looking but no luck on a positive ID until now.
I picked these fenders up thinking they were off a Chevy truck from mid 40's. Any idea what they are really off of?[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Could also be the problem. It won't hurt to replace it just to be sure it holds the latch closed.
I've had that issue before and it was caused by being screwed too far in. It was not able to seat all the way into the latch and would slip back...
I don't have a problem with what the counter guys don't know. I think a lot of people assume that because someone works in a parts store, they...
I thought I had thunk this one up. I'll bet I have at least 50 of the clear plastic bins in my shop. Best thing I ever did for organization - I...
Run the lock-up if doing any highway driving. There is no downside to locking. Here's a simple kit that gives you plenty of options....
Here is one more being brought back to life. I did a mild 2" chop. Cadillac 500 engine fits good with the 5" firewall recess. Sits on a stretched...
I'll b e there tomorrow as well. Anybody know a link to what vendors will be there?
From a trailer load of part to an almost complete cab with a 2" chop. Thanks metalshapes for the step by step chop thread....
I'm working with the same issue. Any problems putting epoxy primer over phosphoric acid treated metal?
And a couple pictures of a runningboard
I bought a trailer load 0f 49 Chevy 3100 truck parts and some extra parts were in the mix. Any help ID'ing what year they and what they go to...
Thanks for posting. Its near enough that I'll register and bid on it. Maybe it will be my next project.
I see what you are saying. The leaned post look good but not as subtle as stretching the top. Guess it depends on the look you are going after.
Me and a buddy from South East Alabama will make it. Extended forecast has it partly cloudy and high of 59. I can deal with that. Last year was COLD.
Good thread. I have more time than money so I scrape up what I can from what I got to save the cash for what I can't make. Be sure to post the...
I know this is an old thread but curious why should you not lean the post? Will it screw up getting the door lined up? Seems like just bringing...
Camaro sub with cut coils and blocks on rear. not that low but low enough I have to pay attention
Has anyone used this unit from Southern Air? I like the look of it for my 52 Chevy Sedan and the price is right at $289. Just wondering about...
Not too HAMB friendly but car has mid 70's front clip with narrowed control arms and cut springs. Rear is also mid 70's Camaro with de-arched...
The big Caddy engines are best if you are wanting moderate power without spending a lot of money. A modest rebuild even on a low compression...
I double checked and there is nothing in the way. Does the front and back use the same size channel? I bought a kit with the whiskers and channel...
I'm putting the widows back in my 52 Styline 2 door sedan. I noticed that the window channels for the rear windows seem to stick out showing maybe...
If you want an OD trans go with the 2004R. As someone said they can be built to handle it. I have one behind a 425 in my 52 and have this one...
I'm running an Erson cam - can't remember the specs but it is fairly conservative. Do check out the Cadillac forum posted above. Several vendors...
