My 2 1/2 year old already helps me tinker around and pretend to work on the cars and bikes with me. I wouldn't have it any other way. Have fun and enjoy!!![cl

I like the 1st one, the phaeton. It actually looks well done.

I heard that 53-54 Chevy brakes fit on my original axle, but I need clarification. Are they from the truck or the car of those years, anyone? I got a free Ranger rear on its way for the Hot-Rod conversion. Just starting to gather parts now for winter project. Thanx guys for any help for front...

No wonder she cant get rid of these cars[S. She wants too much money for the ones that are advertised. Price them reasonably, like under a grand each, and they would prolly sell like hot cakes. Lots of nice, restorable cars that i would love to have though...Scrap price is only bring 5-600 bucks...

Cragers definitely

Nice pics, thanx. What a great use of an old mail truck, Somethin about it grabs me. I love it!!

I like the little Honda Dream next to your old truck. Have one in my garage next to the '30. Gonna be my boys first bike. Greats pics. Love those Oakland grills, just beautiful.

Thanx guys. Gonna drive it as is and just tighten it up for now. This is how it gets financed...

Thanx guys. Yea, on the look out for some regular steelies, these truck rallys are good enough for now. Gonna do up the interior in clear coat wood for that really old look and re-cover the original seats.

Lots of Nice Iron there, thanx Gastrick. [cl [dr

Told myself I was done draggin somethin home for a while and look what shows up. Traded my 57 for this clean 30 Chevy Coach. All original (except wheels). Been sittin for 50 some years in a dry barn. Got her runnin and drivin already. Gonna run her as is while I fix it up. Enjoy...

YUCK!

Nice car. Fix the mechanicals, and leave it the way it is. It's got great patina!!

You sure you have a torque-tube in your 52? My 54 Poncho had an open drive-line in it with the flat-8/hydramatic. Double check, Pontiac started with open driveshafts earlier like Olds and Caddys. Good luck with your Poncho, loved mine and sure do miss it...

ditto!

That is one COOL TRUCK. Nice job. One of these days...:rolleyes:

Rat rods are cool, that is not[S

Cheap and home built and not OVER-DONE pre-66

The original starter & points/condensor will work fine. You'll have to change the coil to 12v style, the 6v generator to an 12v altenator, all your bulbs to 12v and put a resistor inline to your gas guage and radio. For the carb, if that has the original 2bbl, a 283/307 small rochester 2bbl...

307 sbc w/ a 700r4. Stock aluminum intake with a late model non electronic Quadrajet with a summit R/V cam. I got 20-25mpg all day long in my old 60 Biscayne w/3:55 gears. OD+long stroke motor=torque=good mpg. Had great power too...I miss that car...305 should do the same, but I think the 307 is...
