Well I sold my Dodge and bought this. Found it on Craigslist in Huntsville AL. Body is in great shape. Hood has a bad spot right in front that needs some metal filling, the floor boards have some rust through but not too bad at all. Definitely a better choice than the old rust bucket 57 I was...

So I know I should stay off Craigslist until the current project is done. But I didn't. I found this. http://nashville.craigslist.org/cto/1766309223.html I have a 96 Dodge ext. cab long bed, pretty rough, with 245,000 miles on her. Everything works on it. Needs new main bearings (low oil...

http://www.hotrodpencil.com/ These guys were at the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green KY. I bought the "Graffiti Drag" print (gallery 6). If I get my way I will have all the American Graffiti prints. And some of the others on there too. Kool stuff.

How many guys are using a straight razor? I haven't yet but will be soon. If I can quit getting out bid on e-Bay.:)

I really can't decide what to do here. Had my own remodeling business. It went down hill with the economy. All I have ever done is manual labor construction type jobs. I was selling roof replacements for a while. Try to get ins. to pay for storm damage. Pays really good. Door to door sells...

The od on my expansion tank is 1 5/8. Bottom water pump opening is 2 or 2 1/8. The openings on my new radiator are 1 1/4. Does some one make a reducer for these sizes. Am I going to have fab. something? How much can you clamp down or stretch a hose? For example will a 2" hose fit a 1 5/8...

Couple of pic.s I snapped with the cell phone. Snapped this driving down 24 from Clarksville area. This was at the local metal scrap yard. Another one gone away. It was pretty rough though.

Looking at the Lokar automatic tranny shifter. Can't decide between the 16" or 23". The 16 will come to about the top of the dash I believe. So obviously the 23 will be taller than the dash. The 23 will also be in my line of sight through the window. For that reason I am thinking of the shorter...

Thinking of making my own gas tank to fit behind the seat. Right now I have an old air compressor tank I was going to use. I would like to keep the bed open and free of anything. Any ideas or suggestions on making my own? What gauge steel, etc. Don't want gas leaks or to much pressure build up...

OK I can't find a descent place to mount my radiator, that I like. I have seen where some people mount there radiator flat. Under the truck, in the roof, under the bed. Does anything special have to be done to do this? What complications arise if this is done? Will a stock mechanical water pump...

OK my wife has an 02 Explorer. I know it doesn't really fit in the rat rod forum but I need some advice. I have done a lot of internet searching on this. Mostly I just hear people complaining. It has a whine coming from the rear axle. This has been going on for a while. Sounds like I'm running...

For the guys around TN I know a really good and reasonable transmission guy. He has been rebuilding transmissions for a long time. PM me for his info. I say this to keep people from simply calling for a bunch of questions. If you really need work done he's the man. PM please

OK, so I have some tax refund money burning a hole in my pocket. I know I should just forget it and put it away for later.... But you know how that goes. Of course some funds need to go to the Ranger build (see signature) but I can't help myself. I have a 94 Dodge truck as my daily wheels. It's...

Once upon a time..... A man was a man and a woman was a woman. Men drank beer. They worked on there cars. They worked on there houses. They got dirty. Now they pay someone else to change there oil. They can't even change a tire. Of course this doesn't apply to RRR people. Most of my friends...

I apologize up front if I am posting in the wrong place. Not really sure where to put this. I am getting some uncle sam money back and would like to invest it. Really considering trying to start selling mild kustoms. Basically taking a good foundation and doing some minor work to turn a profit...

Thinking of filling in the section in the back. My dad had original plans of putting the radiator there. What do you think? Front clip is from a 93 ranger 4cyl. my brother let go to crap. I don't know why this pic. is so small. Inside view from rear window looking in. Not much to see yet...

OK OK I know I'm new to the forum. But I can't find this answer anywhere. Some of you will think I'm retarded. I don't care, flame on. My question is this. I am building a car. I am considering different radiator locations and sizes. The motor is a mildly upgraded Ford 390. One option I am...

Hey there kats. New guy to the forum from Gallatin Tn. Under employed at the moment. Like a lot of people. Working on a 68 Ford hot rod, rat rod, whatever you want to call it. I like Franken rod. Because it's a conglomerate of several different years of vehicle, there's even some U-Haul trailer...
