So ive heard from various sources that you can get different nozzles for spray cans, and they will make paint come out smoother. Last time i painted my truck, i got alot of "striping" in the paint. is there another way to avoid that?

I went to investigate the "Rocker noise" my dad heard and found this: Most of the manifold bolts on that side are loose, if not backed out. Im also going to start of my grill swap. And heres a pic i took the other day when my girlfriend was sitting in my truck as i washed it. I just...

So i went to the junkyard to get some parts for my truck, and i ended up getting a wiring harness WITH a license plate light (the 67-72 have two plate brackets, one under the truck and one on the bumper, the factory light for under the truck is hard to find), but i dropped the glass lense for it...

So lets say i wanna put a spool in a 9''. The third member that the spool is in is 4.88, and i want 3.23. My truck has 3.23's in it now. If i just take the spool out of the 4.88 third member, and take the carrier out of my 3.23 third member and replace it with the spool, i wont have to reset...

I'm painting my hood again, and im having some problems getting it to look smooth. So heres my question, in the pics, you can kinda see how it looks like there are stripes in it. I'm spraying a light coat so that its barely covering the primer, then doing one or two coats to cover the...

Well, after a break from working on the truck and away from the computer, I've finally found my way back to this hole in the internet. I'm guessing most of you dont remember me or even have seen me around here before (heck, the only person i remmber is Gastrick), so i guess i'll do a little...

I'm starting on my build. Its a 1971 Ford F100. I'm kinda stuck on chopping the top. Lining up the wing windows, cutting glass, etc. I'm planning on a 4''-5'' chop. I've racked my brain and probably over-analyzed and over thought this process, and confused myself, So I'd like a little help...
