This is the unit out of my '95 Dodge Dakota. Probably too big for your needs but gives you an idea what's inside those boxes. You'll need the A/C compressor, dryer, evaporator core, blower motor and all associated vents, lines and controls. As stated, the rear unit from a van might be a good...

I extended my 2"x3" frame. I just posted a reply to christcrusader13's thread showing how I did it. Post #13. http://ratrodsrule.com/forum/showthread.php?t=31312&page=2

I agree with Bamamav. Do it once, do it right! I needed to extend my frame so I cut off half of each piece then overlapped them. I drilled holes and rosette welded the inner plates. At that point I had about 5/16" of steel which allowed me to up the MIG voltage and make a really hot weld to...

Well.............I guess I'm old!

What he said!^^^^^^^^^

I wish we had it as easy as Washington state! If your really wanna develop an ulcer, try dealing with California DMV, California Air Resources Board and the Bureau of Automotive Repair. Bureaucracy at it's finest! It really doesn't get any better than that!

Vern Tardel had this at his yard sale a couple months back but yours looks like it's in pretty good shape. Have you determined exactly what year it is?

It's usually personal preference but 3" should be the minimum.

Excellent score! I've always loved the proportions of the '46-'47 Fords. From the pics the body looks to be in pretty good shape. Good floors, trim pieces, looks like you got a winner! Earthman's pic has just the right stance. Clip the front, late model rear, small block Ford/C4 auto and...

The question is, how far from your dryer outlet to the air compressor? If it's only 25' or 30', 10/3 should work. If you have an electric dryer ya gotta remember to unplug the dryer before using the air compressor, otherwise you'll pop a breaker. I hard wired my I/R 5hp 80gal compressor to...

That's a clean ride! I luv the looks of the 2nd gen Camaros! Did you see the '72 in the latest Hot Rod magazine? Built by PureVision and the stance is absolutely wicked!!

Ford turbocharged 2.3 liter 4 cyl. They're common, bulletproof and you can easily hit 300 hp with junkyard parts. Joe Morgan pushed 1200 hp outta one (but he wasn't using junkyard parts)! I have one in my Mustang, I have one in my daily driver '86 Thunderbird and I'm dropping one in my '27...

I'll be using the turbocharged 2.3 four cylinder outta my Mustang..................

The radiator is gonna be a crapshoot! It's outta a Geo Metro (as is the gas tank). The rad was $50 brand new and it's the only thing I could find that would fit inside the tracknose and still have room to run the intercooler piping past it to the I/C which is mounted in the nose. It's...

Brought it home 4 years ago.......................... Rolled it outta the garage for the first time yesterday....................... I have parts and pieces from 20 different cars on this thing and I've got about $1000 into it (including purchase price) at this point. I'm fairly...

Welcome from Santa Rosa! Lotsa good info on this site, you'll like it! Great swap at the Arco Arena coming up in April but you probably already know that. Welcome!

I wish I would have seen these before! I just finished a framework for my track nose and I had to piecut the tubing like an accordion then weld in a strengthening plate. In the near future I'll be fabbing a body structure for my roadster. I'll be ordering up a few of these from you. Is it...

Probably not. F1's have fairly stout frames. Just make sure the PO didn't box it with booger welds and you should be good.

As of the first of this year Calif DMV began offering/reissuing vintage 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's plates (provided they got enough applicants). http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2012/10/04/dmv-to-offer-vintage-license-plates/ Also, here's a pic of the restored '69 plate on my Dart. I met some...
