This whole patching and fixing old rusty wheels idea seems like a formula for disaster to me until I remind myself that this beast will never go faster than 20 or 30 MPH tops. Nice work. I am sure you fellas know what you are doing. :D

Yes! With lots of something sticking through the hood. i prefer a street look, but I can see lifted with monster tires, too. I hope this happens. :D [cl

I'm still dreaming about a plasma cutter. :D

Welcome aboard. This is the best site for what we do. Great gang here.

A couple thoughts: This would have been fun to watch. Pretty sure its totaled. It will be easy to salvage the copper. The tow truck driver needs a skip loader. They'll take my gas powered car when they pry my cold dead hands off the steering wheel. When gas powered cars are outlawed, we will...

That's a good price these days. I guess I'm lucky having a bazillion yards withing a few minutes drive. Always tradeoffs...

YEA!!! You made another one. [cl [cl [cl

Astro vans have a nice little intermediate shaft with two slightly offset u-joints that were perfect for taking the "bump" out of the steering in my 39. I added a double-d shaft to get the right length, and used a piece of the S10 column for a sleeve. Best of all, they are a lot cheaper than...

I have noticed, over the last couple decades, that "grandmas" are looking younger and hotter every year. :D

That is great solution to the problem. [cl My first thought was to just turn them out on a lathe, but you addressed that idea right off.

Wish you were closer. :D

Yes, the horns are childish and crazy, and we all know we want one too. :D [ddd

What does a new one cost? I'd be putting all that rust treatment energy into a car. :D

Guessing there was a nice price tag on it, too. I thought about the 40 Chev headlights for my 39, but I let some friends talk me into going with the stock lollipop lights.

Might be time to ditch that stool. It looks from here like the seat is starting to tilt over. Once that starts, its only a matter of time before it tips over under you. I saw on one of the YouTube shows a guy had an old office chair that he took the back off of and used for the same purpose...

After installing a kit with full instructions, I think I could do it from scratch. I think... :D [S

I know I should. I just have been reluctant to do it. Likely some deep seated psychological issue. :D

I used a Speedway 20-circuit kit (910-64027) in my 39. It was way more than I needed for my project, but maybe the next owner will want to ad a bunch of accessories. This one is set up for a modern GM column with a key and lock. By the time I was done installing it I had a very good...
