The Jalopy Journal
Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!
Just a note:my 37 coupe had always seemed a little spongy--ever after 30 years of driving and a few brake repairs. I helped a friend do a bke...
I found this--see for yourself---
I second this: my 39 taillights were always dim--no matter what I did,they never were bright enough in the daytime. After almost getting...
Saw this in the L.A. Times today---all you guys--and girls that had Sting Rays, what color, and were they "stock"? I had a green one,with a...
I met Dean at a commercial shoot a few years ago--they used our cars for a Bell Atlantic commercial. We got to talk for a couple of hours--so much...
Sunday--Sunday--Sunday!!
I agree! Just my opinion,but cars "laying frame" just look broken to me. I've always said: If your car's not comfortable-you just have a toy. My...
I'm interested in Scarebird's brackets for my 65 El Camino--they say their GTO series brackets work with 14in. wheels. My El Camino came with 14...
Back when it was still a decent magazine--until SOMEBODY f*cked it up!
Here's a couple I've been working on ,on and off for a while--
I was a kid just out of high school when they made the movie--"Buzz's Garage" is in Piru,Ca-they shot all the town scenes there. A few of us live...
Hey!! Congrats,buddy!!!
We used the old Chevy air pimp bracket--bolted to the intake and water pump. Not sure how hard these are to find, but I saw one at a swap meet not...
I did the same thing on my roadster--Lemon Pledge smelled good ,too!
Stayed home from work Thursday morning for a dentist appointment--figured I'd do a couple things in the garage beforehand. One was to clean out...
I have been talking to a friend about a car he has--a model T type runabout.It's got an early Pinto motor with some outdated 70's-80's fuel...
What most don't remember is that Ford being cheap, lots of parts interchanged thru the years,if not dirrectly, then with little modification.
I hope they're in better shape than that damn Plymouth they buried!
That's some funny shit right there---but I'm laughin WITH ya--so start laughin!
I've never run welting on my 37 coupe,and it's been on the road 30 years---I can't hear any squeeking, but I can't hear shit,anyway!
Only two: In the early 70's ,I was getting my motorcycle license. All I had to ride at the time was my Yamaha dirt/street bike. I take the...
I know the feeling,Marv. I started going on Sundays, and it seems that the "rush" is over by then. But the last few years it's been raining, so...
I detailed the axles in both of my last 2 cars--my 37 coupe I did the axle body color( yellow) with black as the insert, and on my roadster, I did...
I did too----cruised all over New Years Eve , then took it out this afternoon for a couple hours.
If "patina" you mean rust,here's my 56. As a shameless plug, I need a good cowl for this--like from the windshield to the floor, in So Cal, if...
Very sad to hear--I met him a few times at NSRA events--great guy. He always answers to questions that people came up and asked about---he didn't...
Me,too! I'll bet if you reproduced them, you could sell all you could make!
