Good times... Spiral LED bulbs? I hate the spiral CFL's.. but love the Edison base LED's. The CFL's have "issues" in very cold temperatures.. that and they contain mercury which is hazardous (or at least they used too).

Of the trucks Chevrolet has produced through the years these second generation C10's have to be the worst for rust. My dad bought a '72 C-20 new and within 5 years it had holes rotted in it... and after 9 years it was no longer safe to drive. The web of the rear trailing arms had holes rusted...

Wow.. truck is really turning out nice Phil. Much respect your way.. what a multi talented fella. I always learn something here.. this time, thanks to Nate..... Behind the Badge: Where Cadillac Got Its Crest (and Ducks) The Merlettes: Commonly known as “the ducks,” these birds appear in...

I bought an aftermarket tachometer Auto Meter tach for my '69 Camaro and the readings were erratic and spiked frequently. I called the Auto Meter Service phone number and one of their technicians instructed me to install a 10K ½ watt resistor in the green wire going to the coil. I purchased...

I had a friend in Ohio who had a '62 vert vette. You get the neat 2nd gen rear appearance and the neat first gen dog house. For me though... it doesn't get better than a '63 split window coupe.

Not a Viper fan or a super car fan. Well, unless you consider a 2nd Generation vette a super car.

Thanks Steve. Yep, photo is circa 2003 ish from our place on Old National Road. The RPU only had about 5 miles on it when we moved. In the photo below you can see my hi-tech blasting booth hanging from the ceiling. These two old Fords are buddies for life..... I wish they could talk...

Back before I got my lift I wanted a way to set a vehicle on the wheels, but lifted up off the ground. I had a set of wooden ramps my Grandfather had given me back in the 1980's. And I had a bunch of 2x material and 1/2" plywood left over from other projects. So I built these lift boxes...

Have you tried calling Classic Parts and asking them? They may be willing to break up a set?

In today's market... that's a $10,000 truck... easy. But then again... it is a "Ford" :rolleyes: What else is your wife selling? ____ John

Anyone can try.. and we'll help. But we've all seen some pretty scary stuff out there :eek: Nate's new handle... "The Magic Man" ___ John

Bummer. My 1931 Ford has a CE front I beam axle... pretty sure I bought the 4 bar kit from them too back in the early '90's. So Evan.. who is your go to source now that CE is unobtanium? Here's a link to their website if anybody is interested: Welcome to Chassis Engineering. This is where...

Always late to the party... ;-) Merry Christmas to all and Happy Holidays. Nate, we too were in search of a good thin crust pizza. Living here in the mountains the pickings are pretty slim. So we make our own. Pre-heat oven to 475 F. Buy the single bag of crust mix, mix it up according...

Thanks Nick. I was pretty sure the member count was somewhere. Merry Christmas! _____ John

judder [juhd-er] Chiefly British verb (used without object) 1. to vibrate violently: an old automobile with a clutch that judders. ________________________________ Damn.. I learned something today. Thanks Zig. So is there some reason the motor mounts our sponsor sells won't work? Rear Motor...

Wow..what an awesome rig. If it was black... it would be perfect. Wonder how well the CB reception is with the spears?

Eazy Peezy Japaneezy Thanks Steve

So... how did you do the large photo? Edjufacate me.

Curious... Anybody know how many members are there registered on this site?

Well that's interesting. Some folks have gotten a tongue lashing over at The Garage Journal for not picking a new photo site and re-attaching photo's. For me I'm guessing that would be 500 photo's for my barn build thread to stay intact. I never knew if that site had used different software...
