On my 33 Chevy, I'm trying to decide where to mount a fuel tank and where to mount my 2 batteries (donor was a F350 with 2 batteries). My floor is very thin (4" frame on the ground + 2 inches under the floor skin) The 2 ideas I'm bouncing around are shelf behind rear seat, or build an enclosure...

I'm in the middle of making motor mounts and cross-members on my frame. The engine and trans that I'm using are huge. 7.3L turbo diesel and 4R100 trans with 4wd transfer case. I recognize the need to make everything beefy to handle this weight. I'm also making this thing as low as I possibly...

I've been working on this a while now. I'm making huge progress on it now that I have a donor, so I thought I'd start a thread. I thought I had submitted a thread already on this, but I guess it was another site. :mad: This thread starts from the beginning, but I'm actually at the point where...

Here's the issue. My donor is a long bed 4wd F350 dually crew cab. My rat will essentially have the same drivetrain layout, but the engine will be slid much further back, meaning I need a shorter rear driveshaft and a longer front driveshaft. I'm not a mechanic, so just assume I'm dumb...

My 33 chevy looks like the windshield mounted from the inside originally. Should I mount it from the inside or make a 1/2" inside-radius lip and mount it from the outside? Is it a safety issue in modern times to have the windshield mount from the inside? Things were much different back then...

I'm buying my deceased father's old truck from my mother to use as a donor vehicle for my 33 Chevy in the state of Florida. I don't have a title for the 33 chevy so I'll somehow need to apply for a title with just a bill of sale and the model number plate. There was no VIN in 33. Question: -...

I'm just having a terrible time learning how to weld flat sheetmetal on bodywork. I've done okay on the curved areas on the back of my 33 chevy, but the roof is giving me fits. When I tacked the main sheet on the roof, it lined up great and fit perfectly. Once I welded the seams, everything...

I bought a Craigs list 33 Chevy that is basically a shell of the body, the frame and a few misc parts. There is a body tag on the cowl that identifies body style, etc, but there is no serial plate anywhere. How do I get this legally titled? I can't do a VIN verification, since there is no...
