Beautiful! Great proportions. Excellent panel gaps. Its those little things that separates the men from the boys.
Id like to know about this as well, thread bookmarked...
I collect and study Appleton spots. No guessing here, I have studied this very hard for a few years now. I have made many posts on the subject, so...
A 112 or 552 would have a flange on the bucker with 3 rivets attaching it to attach to the arm, where it swivels. This is another variant, likely...
Well, I wont be attending this year I guess. This is at least the second time the KK's have held their show on a Jewish high holiday. Perhaps next...
Nice for the first time, but the weld bead is fairly undercut. You need to dip more rod. You can take a second pass over these existing welds to...
Rik, dont get me wrong, the car looks to be done very nicely. However if that was supposed to be a Carson top....well, it isnt a Carson (style)...
Actually, Id say he failed miserably on the Carson top. The idea of a carson top is to give a convertible style top a closer profile to a nicely...
Wow! looks amazing. I love the color choice. One of the absolute best customs on the HAMB ever.
I love the center mounted bullet!
I was thinking the same thing. Not sure, I dont see any either. Thats because he's a tough guy. "Just like to 50's, bro"
Call Posies, I think they can make you a set of solid aluminum ones.
According to some quick research, Chevy never made them. Thats why every 58 el camino looks a bit different. They are usualy made from modifying a...
I didnt even know there was still a show in Biggerville! Had I known, I would have gone that way. I found out last night that there were now 2...
Looks like it was very nice. I didnt know they split, I thought it was just a move. I went to the wrong show! The KKOA show in MD was a bore.
Drove about an hour and a half to get there. Got there at around 11:30. No one I knew had showed up at that point, the field was pretty sparse,...
Ehhh, not really 100% what your looking for Zach. Maybe a bit. I go every year, and I do like it a lot, but you can usually count the pre 49...
Only real men lower their cars by letting the air out! Hoping to see you on Saturday Jim!
Fitting the hood to these cars is extremely time consuming if you want it right. But once the hinges are fit to the cowl properly, and a few guide...
4x4? Out of proportion mods? Your the first to make such a claim. My car is slow, its a custom, its not meant to be fast. No insult there....
Its not really his welcome. He has posted pics of his car many times over the years. Most of the time, the posts are the same pics again, again,...
Hmmm, for all of those speaking of the wonderful fabrication work, lets zoom in a bit on some of the welds. So where is the wonderful fab work?...
I agree! And are those rocker extensions being "bondo'd" in place?
You have an awesome looking garage! I love the wood floor!
Thats why I planned on TIG, and plus, since going with TIG, I cant stand MIG welding, dont like the flying sparks!
I need to narrow a Bob Drake 41-48 ford gas tank. In order to get my exhaust to tuck in nicely, and come out exactly where I thought it was...
Had a family commitment this year, couldn't make it. Looks like I missed a great time...
Agreed! Id like to see all of the bondo haters perfectly metal finished, shinny painted arrow straight cars!
Too cool! I love it!
