The Jalopy Journal
Thinking of Z-ing the frame in the rear but not sure if I can match it in the front with spring work and have clearance.
Whatever I can get without fabing arms and still retaining leaves.
I would like to keep the leaf springs, front and back, but get it down. Maybe a Z notch in the frame?
I liked Hollywood Knights much better. It was more the way I "grew up". It was if the writers had been following us around documenting all of...

Has something changed or have tire chucks just gone to shit like everything else? I have more trouble filling tires these days than ever. I...

With the upcoming 80th anniversary of the Zoot Suit Riots we can expect to see a lot of "Pachuco" style cars (for lack of a better term) on...
Thanks Anyone unhappy with Scott's Rods
I've been screwed so many times lately that I figure i better get references before making any purchases from a new, to me, vendor. Any input...
If it hasn't been mentioned before, big rig trucks that were deadheading with no trailer were running "bobtail". That term has been around since...

Keep 'em coming! I need more laughs.
I have an aluminum body that needs stripping. I've pulled engine and all glass.
I’ve seen more than a few posts on the HAMB complaining of “homogenized” hot rods. I’ve seen others asking to see “odd rods” and hot rods that...
