Projects 1946 Chevy: In Early California Custom Styling

Gaurd yourself Aaron against its trickery. It will surely suck you into driving it over finishing it...... It is evil and fun..

 

Aaron, whats your music?

 

You know it's gotta be good music..judging by his avatar.

Cool new pics....you were out sleddin in the snow.

 

Yeah thats bad ass! Takes some balls to drive your custom in the snow!

 

As another devotee to the Pisano/ogden buick and plain "right" customs, I salute you and follow with anticipation.

 

Bit late..but im now tuned in...Killer work your doing..you have the eye for it !!!! love every bit of it cant wait to see how you takle those spots. The reason why i havent installed my unity's is because im too scared to turn it into a dogs breakfast !

Cool video Aaron. What instrument do you play?

 

Cool video....sounds good and sounds like some T Bone coming out of there. Maybe not.

 

I play the guitar and sing.

Jeff, that was an early song by Bo Diddley. I play a lot of t bone style stuff too.

 

Cool video reminds me of the first few minutes of the movie Christine

 

Very cool.

 

Aaaahhhhhh......potato potato potato... Yup that's music right there to a gear head.

Bo diddly sure can wail. Fits that car perfect!

Thanks

 

your ride just gets cooler by the day dude...
cheers Darren

 

I saw this car when i visited maui and met brant,
He's a really cool guy, and that car is pretty bad ass.
Im sure he's happy that someone like you will take it to the next level. Great job!!!

 

Well I've encountered a problem.. I was on my way through a mountain snow storm (as always), and it did fine through the storm...



But when I got to Sacramento, I noticed that when I slowed down and pushed in the clutch, the car would start shaking and start knocking......

Then it would die.

I haven't figured out what the problem is yet, I'm hoping its a motor mount making the knocking sound and a bad clutch making the car die. I hope

 

I hope that's all it is. That picture of the 46 in the rain is really cool.

 

Poor you with that driver! Lol

Good to know it wasn't likely too serious.

Is the clutch reservoir full? If that clutch goes I think it would slip in stead of stay engaged.

If you replace the motor mounts get the polyurethane ones.


How does it run in neutral?

 

Brant, its not the mount thats broken, its where it was welded to the frame. I looked underneath and saw that the weld had broken.

I filled the clutch resivoir just a week or two ago.

 

I luuuuv yer' car Aaron. I can't believe I missed this thread, just read the whole thing. Dig your vision for the car, and what you've done so far. If you need help sometime (as with your spotlight install) send me a note, I'd be glad to help out.
.

 

Damn it! That would make a hell of a noise and vibrations.

Have you tried repairing the bad weld or whatever broke enough so it doesn't move? Then see if you still have the same issues. If the motor is moving around that will cause other stuff to move.

Also that clutch ain't that old.

 

Yeah Im going to weld the mount and see if the knocking stops.

I'm pretty sure I'm having clutch issues, it doesnt want to go into reverse and makes a crazy whirring sound once its in reverse.

Gosh I hope its not a lower end engine knock
