The Jalopy Journal
Sweet car. I've been on the hunt for a 64 for years. I would either ditch the scoop or shave the trim.
Love it.
[IMG] Come on Willie, you don't have to be a gold chainer to know what this is.
I don't concern myself with the feelings of rat rodders.
I hope you don't think I was bad mouthing the show. Looks like some great cars there. I was commenting on the last 5 or 6 pics. It's hard to...
That Stude truck is embarrassed to have it's picture in between those shit heaps.
I always use a 4 1/2" 60 grit flap disk. And a dust mask and shop fan blowing across the work. Sometimes a stiff putty knife will peel it off...
Bad ass. Get it on the road and take Gramps out for a cruise.

You did the right thing.
Best thing I did with mine was put a Carter on.
I vote for you to ditch the wheels. Then paint it back to stock. With those wheels you should do some realistic flames.
Very sad. A real hot rodder.
Not if it was mine.
That's at 45 and 1826 just south of austin. I've bought an oil tanker worth of high life there and never seen anybody from zz there. Bad timing...

When I was 18 I almost killed myself with a combo of no neutral safety, bad ground cable, and sticky ignition switch. Since then I make sure I...
I got my Optima red top through amazon for $105 shipped.
Yep. Your Cragar's will work, and look good.
x3 on the cables.
I planned on splitting mine on the 230. But in the meantime I just put a 20" cherry bomb and dumped the single 2" pipe out the pass side in front...
X3 on the spacing. I got about 11 lines in and my eyes crossed.
Make sure you have the shanked "mag wheel" lug nuts with matching washers and you should be fine. Should look something like this. [IMG]
Saw this little honey at a recent show. [IMG] [IMG]
Awsome.
Put it on. I've never not done it. It may not be critical but it won't hurt anything.
Round Up!
It only took me 6 years to do this. Picked up this project in trade for some carpentry work. All original drivetrain runs good. It was lowered...
