One of my only 2 local mopar buddies offered me a 72 360 with auto trans for $400 but I am not ready to spend any money on it yet. He also has about 4 440's and he offered one to to me... but all needed machine work and reassembly... again- cash isn't available for this to get any attention...

good to be back... life is good, guys... got a few projects going for other people, and trading for parts and pieces for my junk is usually how I get "paid" for what I do in the shop these days. I never thought about the unibody and torque issues! I was really just gonna throw axles under it...

Forgot to include pics

So I traded for this little wagon the other day. 1964 Plymouth Valiant V100- it’s been in this same location for probably 30 years according to the owner... slant 6/3 spd manual trans. I’m thinking that since I have a friend with a speedway gasser straight axle kit, that I’ll probably go that...

thanks for the link! the guy has found a car- looks like this one you posted so much I'm not convinced it isn't the same car- but it's in Nebraska. he is actually on his way to check it out this week. I appreciate the responses and hope to get back in the swing of things around here eventually...

i have a hotrod buddy looking for a decent model T sedan body... Nothing to rusted or rotten. just a body with doors is all that he needs as he will be building it on a T bucket type frame & suspension... post up a pic and a price with location if ya have something... thanks, Hotrod Preacher

Welcome to the site from a northern Arkie! [P

from someone who knows nothing about music- except how to play it on the radio, I thought it sounded awesome! and looked awesome as well... [cl[cl[cl[cl

good looking project... of course I'm a little partial to 46 ford trucks myself and how your son saw a lakester grille in 46 ford fenders is super cool:cool:

thanks for the birthday wishes! -spent the day painting on a WD45 Allis Chalmers for a neighbor... spent the evening eating pizza from my favorite local pizza place while watching American Graffiti and street outlaws... [P:D:cool:

thanks for the kind thoughts and prayers. for the one who asked, yes, the family had joined together with many relatives to celebrate a birthday at their church. Cemetery right behind the building. children were playing outside when an older and rather large tombstone fell on him. it was a...

hey guys, I know I don't frequent this forum as much as I used to, I have no excuses, but I haven't forgotten all of the kind folks here, and that is why I am here today. I have some dear friends- I've known for 25 years- who lost their eight year old son in a tragic freak accident Saturday. I...

will be very hard to find someone willing to dish out 35 grand for a restoration project- that isn't a numbers matching muscle car... when it comes to customs, the more radical the customization, the more difficult to find a buyer... just my 2 cents worth... and that car is definitely RADICAL...

that, my friend is deep. and I mean that in a good way!:cool:

so I wanted to update this thread even though it was WAY back in the forgotten corner of my mind. I just re-read it and was once again overwhelmed by the prayers, support and advice of all those who were involved in that dark chapter of my family life. To give a full update you must read a lot...

I realize this is a very old thread, but I felt an update might be in order. I bought the car from a guy who had endured an ugly divorce. as some of you know, I wound going through a divorce and sold this car to my cousin, and had the job (paying job) of putting it together for him. He then lost...

well my interests haven't changed, but life has... I am now working as a full time pastor and traveling to a seminary 2 days a week, so car building is very slow for me now... especially since my shop is a 45 minute drive from where I live now because of that I drifted off site for a while...

bonehead, you have my utmost respect as a hotrod builder... this was one of the few builds that I wanted to come back to check on, and the end results are far more amazing than my wildest expectations! my hat's off to you-not only for the awesome fabrication and "artistry/vision," but also for...

thanks for the kind words guys! the wife just got a new computer for Christmas so I hope to use it in uploading some pics eventually... :rolleyes: me and technology just don't get along, so it may be a few days yet! lol stay tuned...[P HRP[;)
