Hey all! I've been gone off here a while, been buying up projects and trying to get some finished. I've got a question for you all. What do you guys think a 1951 chevy fleetline deluxe coupe would be worth? It ran a year ago from a can of gasoline. Not sure when it was last driven...

Does anyone know if international truck parts are readily available? Namely the steering box?? An old 52 or 53 l110 showed up at the junkyard last week and it's a smoking deal. Very complete but the steering box has been robbed of parts. I want to make sure parts are available before I get it...

Hey guys! It's been a while but I had to share this and get some ideas. So I bought this mustang off my neighbor with a title for $20. What should I do with it?? I am not a ford guy by any stretch of the imagination but the price was right. Posi rear end in it. I'm looking for ideas maybe to...

Hey guys and gals! I was sitting here thinking about an idea for the industry. Do you guys think there would be a market for those show rods that guys are building with the 60s car quarters and fins and all that? I was thinking a guy could build the bodies out of fresh steel and sell them like...

Does anyone on here mess with opels? I have a roadster that's hand made and it used opel drivetrain. I just bought a 1.9l engine for it and then realized that the 1.1l is a different transmission! So I was wondering if anyone has messed with these cars at all and has any advice or would know...

This is why I love living in indy. You get access to things like this laying around in people's parts stashes. And usually pretty good deals too! Any ideas on what it is?? I have a model and serial number on it. The big question at the house right now is what to do with it, other than sit...

Ok guys! So I just did a major overhaul on the daily and now that the bad noises are gone I can hear a clunk in the rear end when you turn hard. When you jack it up you can hear the sound by pulling and pushing on the rear wheels. Is this normal? Seems to me like movement of the axle shafts...

http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/grd/5078494795.html A friend showed me this and I'm trying to figure what it came off of??? No brakes and an odd frame piece.

Ok yall so I've got a 3.9 magnum motor I pulled from my ram. I have been trying to find some info on putting it in a rod. Has anyone done this?? What transmission would go behind it? I'm gonna try for a carb'd motor but I can't find anything about it. Any ideas??

Ok folks so I just bought a car that was, as the story goes , built by a man at the indianapolis gm plant in spare time. It was built a while ago and it actually ran and drove but its been sitting for 8 years now. It got taken apart when a new owner got it and decided he wanted to put a sbc in...

OK guys, So I've been collecting parts to build a roadster since I was 16. The plan was to build the body entirely from scratch and form all the panels since I can't find cheap roadster bodies around here and I prefer steel. I have been thinking lately though about whether it would be easier to...

My daily driver, 2001 dodge ram, died on me yesterday. I put a new battery in it and still no power, no dummy lights or anything. Here's where I'm perplexed, I hook up a voltmeter to the batt and it has 12volts with the positive cable hooked up. When you touch the negative cable to the battery...

I have had this crazy thought about making side pipes for my daily truck that also function as step bars. I was thinking about using 2.5" tubing and making brackets to bolt it to the frame. With rubber spacers of course. Any ideas on how this could work?? See any problems?
