You guys need to find the good on those poorly built cars and trucks. You stay far enough behind them, that as parts fall off, not only do you not get hurt, but you pull over, pick up the parts and sell them to other idiots building garbage. I see a fairly large market. [cl

Cool deal. Any others? Where is that from? I would say you should post that on the pork site, but they will ban you,lol.

Those are just scary. [S

I could care less what is traditional or not, build what you like. My point was Don said "Some people on some forums bad mouth them," and then you posted a pic of a 34. All I was saying is the ones that "some people" bad mouth, are "generally" 35 and later. [P I would love to see dated pics...

The arguement on when they started is "bobbers" built using 35 and later truck bodies, and specifically fat fender bodies. I don't think anyone ever says they weren't built "back then" using 34 and earlier bodies.

I don't know squat about British cars, but I bought an 87 Jag for the rear end and after reading this, I went out to the car. The cap says Dot 3 only. Wonder why?

The kits that everyone here is mentioning carries the adaptors. As for calipers, most kits nowdays uses the GM "metric" calipers found on many GM products from 78 and up.

They do when you drop the f bomb telling them to :D

We might get killer deals on rust free steel, but plastic/rubber/paint doesn't last out here at all. Last year I had a garage sale. Colored the signs in bright red sharpie. Mind you, not cheapo magic markers, but real Sharpie permanent markers. Put the signs out all over. 2-3 hours later, a...

It is supossed to be compatable. I have "topped off" with synthetics and never had any reaction or seperation.

Volarie/Aspen disc is what most kits use, but they don't go on without an adapter.

Depending how bad the rot is (doors look rotted in the last pic) I would say with the roof caved in, I would go no higher than $800 if the rest was solid.

Oh for sure. The oldest has mad art skills. Painting and drawing/design instead of cars. Tried to get her into things like airbrushing and murals, but went a different route. Cars arent for everyone. She was my shop girl before she discovered boys, then that all ended. I think she regrets giving...

Yea, shes not a bad kid, just gets into a lot of little issues,,,, a LOT,,,,, but nothing major. Thanks for all the replies, my daughter loves seeing them (and it doesn't hurt my feelings either :D ).

Thx. Shes a good kid. Most teen boys dream, most dads nightmare. Cheerleader looks, REALLY into cars, left arm sleeved, has her own 33 Ford pickup shes building, can run an English wheel and can tig aluminum. Her bf is a good kid (Air Force) and shes loyal which means I'm not cleaning my shotgun...

Thx guys. Here is my kid enjoying the fruits of her labor. Notice which seat the boyfriends has to sit in? [cl She was following behind us to the cruise. Yes, I'm aware my wife has no working knowledge of a digital camera. [P

Plus shipping, plus crossmembers, plus boxing plates (if running any REAL power). Plus he STILL has to build it. By the time you add all that up, even doing it himself, you are still out a large +. Or, since it is just a rat, build a ladder style frame (like a modified t-bucket) and be out $250 max.

LMAO, I wish my turds smelled like roses, but ask anyone within a mile,,,,, they don't. However, the sun does shine on a dogs ass now and then. ;)

Did you bag it and tag it? :D

I'm even tucked away and you can hardly see my house. The only reason he saw me is my daughter was striping that truck we just built, so the truck was moved out further in the driveway so she had room to set up. Luck, karma, call it what you want. :D
