Hi All, Does any one know any thing about Corvairs? I just recently purchased my first Corvair. I was going through the local want ads looking for a project, and I found this 63' Monza 900. The last time the car was on the road according to the tags was 1972. It has 44,000 miles on it. I was...

Hi all, It's been a while since I posted. I've been having too much funn driving this thing. I bought some 15" Chev Ralleys for the back and some new bisquits. I couldn't live with the orange fender, so I flat blacked all four fenders. I just left the rest. I forgot to mention it's got a...

Some of you guys may have seen this over on KB, I thought I would put a post here too. I got it listed as a '48 over there it is actually a '47 I found out at the DMV. Lucky me, I managed to track down the orignal owner and he signed over all the paperwork for the orignal title. So it is a '47...

I took a week off of work. I was going to work on my '45, but I couldn't find any parts. So I started a new project. I know, I know don't start another project until you finish the first one. But this one is up and running. There is still a ton of loose ends to tie up, running boards to put on...

Bob: Thanks for the advice. The front suspension does seem a little stiff. I tried to get the angle of the hair pins and springs the same and they are close. If it don't work out I think I will go to a 4 link with coil overs. A little Update: I haven't got much done because it has been...

Here is my bow tie . I know it has a Ford box. I don't think that is staying. I would like to keep it purebred or custom. The cab is a '45 Chevy, the engine is mid 80's 305 and 350 turbo, the frontend is a '54 Chev with a speedway disk brake conversion, quarter elipicals is cut out of the '54...

Oh hey, I forgot to mention the rounding of the grill. I drew it out with soap stone, I think you guys are right it will look better. So just to let you know it is on the to-do list. Ken

I've got my quarter elipticals mocked up. A lot more work then I thought it would be. I still got to finish welding it out and gusting along with the rest of the frame. I also got the coils locked up on the rear suspension. The suicide doors are on hold for right now. I found some old heavy...

A little update: I got my frame mocked up, rear end mounted, I am going to go with coil overs, just cut the leaf springs off behind the mounting plate. I got my grill cut down, got some more welding to do on it. I haven't decided if I am going to go with a transverse or quarter ilepicals on...

Some more pictures.

rockb1Here is some pictures of the chop in progress. Not very good pictures they were taken with my cell phone. I haven't figured out how to size them down yet from the camera. I will try to get some pictures of the engine, frontend, etc. Blue Eyed DevilI don't have a title. I did find the...

Ok, I posted some about this build over on KB. Figured I would put one here too. The cab is a '45 Chevy. Already done a 4" chop. It turned out good. The front axle is '54 Chevy with a Speedway disk brake conversion. Engine is a mid 80's small block Chevy with 350 turbo ($100, I love Craig's...

Crane and backhoe operators needed team work a must.:D

Just traded my Hemi for this today:rolleyes:. It is a 54 Ford, 2 1/2" chop, on a S-10 X-Cab frame. The guy kept the S-10 floors, dash and cawling (complete with AC, cruise control, etc). He channeled the 54 cab down over the S-10 floor pan, split the back of the cab off and was stretching it 14"...
