Update: the car sat outside for a while in a tree row and has enhanced the patina on her. She was pulled out of there last weekend and is now...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Would really like to move this from its current location by early June....
BTTT. Front drivers side fender is there. I don't know a lot more than I've posted. I'm in Colorado and the car is in Illinois. My family will...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] For sale is my barn-kept 1935 Pontiac 6 sedan. My dad bought this car as a spare parts car for his (now mine) coupe in...
That's the one I was thinking of. I've seen 2 other 36's, but only 1 other 35 around here. Those were all down at Quincy, IL for the fall color...
If you're thinking of going with new springs, I got mine from Posie's and I think it was around 400 for the whole setup, but that was a few years...
I'll second that! I've only seen a handfull of 35 Coupes around, and it'd be a huge PITA to rework that baby without wood templates to start with!...
What are you drilling them to? They're not gonna be big enough to go to 5.5. The holes are pretty close to the outside of the flange. Maybe could...
To clarify, the rare coupes that I was talking about are Pontiac coupes. I've seen several 35 Chevy coupes...
Naw, just curious. I don't run into many 35 Coupes, that was the main reason I asked. I have only seen 1 in person, but have seen a couple 36...
Yea, as the others have pointed out, the 35 masters, as well as Pontiacs and buicks had suicide doors. Pancho, do you still have that 35...
I've got hooker aero chambers and I'm a big fan. I don't know what sound you're going for but they're pretty smooth. The only flowmasters I can...
I got mine from posies. They were really helpful and should have just about any spring you need. Chassis engineering will probably have something too.
Here's the one that summit has. Mine doesn't look exactly like this but you get the idea. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-890145/
usually they're called a fuel pump inertia switch. You could go to the dealer but you're going to get raped on it. Like i said, snag one from a...
Good info. I decided to go for a "crash switch" out of a ford focus. I got 2 from the local junkyard for $10. They're wired in line with the fuel...
I've got technostalgia 39 LEDs and they're really bright. They're expensive as hell but they work pretty well at an angle. There's an option to...
There's got to be a welding place around you that would sell it for lots cheaper than eastwood + shipping! Check the locals and then for...
I got a set of 02 caddy seats with a similar setup. The airbag wires are always marked with a yellow connector and yellow wrapping. You can take...
Never heard of Ford running a 5 on 5 pattern in the newer cars. I have a 99 Explorer rear under my car and it's 5x4.5 and I'm 99% sure that they...
I'm pretty sure the mustang axles are not the same as the explorer. I think they're narrower, use different brakes, and are 28 spline. Your best...
You're going to have a real hard time welding sheet with that thing. Flux core anything will probably burn right through it and the spatter will...
you're not planning on doing heavy structural welding with this thing are you? Most little welder can't handle much more than 3/16". I wouldn't do...
Meh, whatever. Like someone said, it doesn't matter what was there, but what am I going to do to make it better? SO when I reinforce the front...
Something that I just realized has been lost in all of this is that my belts are mounted to the seats, so it's all included in the seat mounts....
My main concern isn't safety, but there's no reason that I can't make the car more safe than what it was 75 years ago... Are you saying to...
Top speeds of normal freeway speeds? I'd say the top speed was about 45! I don't know, but that's my guess. I'd love to just weld in a new...
I don't want to call you a liar, I've read many of your posts and respect your knowledge. However, that is just not the case here with this...
Here's the floor, you can't see it very well but the two pieces of steel floorpan are screwed to that 1x4 all the way across.
Yea, I just went back and reread everything and saw it there! Weird.
