When I stripped the brakes and drums off of my '38 Ford front axle I ekpt everything. Now I can't find any evidence off or remmber taking out any inner seals from the drum's hubs. Did they actually have seals? From my measurements the shaft is about 1.5" diameter where the seals should sit...

Wanting to try and be unique with as many parts as possible I designed my own interior lights instead of buying some silly stuff from a spares shop. The inside of the car will maybe get two with one towards the front and one towards the rear. In the trunk I'll install one on each side of the...

Does anybody know what the internal diameters are for the lense openings in the front parking light bezels of a 1958 Impala? My idea is to use two of them, turned 90 degrees, together with 59 Caddy lenses for tail lights on my '34 Chevy. I don't want to search for a pair unless I know they'll...

Something that one just can't keep quiet about - the birth of a child... She was born yesterday morning at 7:50am SA time (GMT+2), she weighed 8.98 pounds and was 22.44 inches tall. She is in the Neo-Natal ICU at the moment due to low(ish) blood sugar and respiratory function but it's getting...

1952 Chevrolet DeLuxe. Apart from a motor and mirrors this car was very complete and rust free. The only rusted item on the car was the battery tray. You will notice however that the dash is not correct as it's a '50 dash. That was the issue here in South Africa where they would use those kinda...

I thought I'd show you guys some pics of my "first" project which, after 3 and 1/2 years since starting, is nearly done. It's a '53 Chevy 210 4-dr. Here it is as I bought it. As you can see the suspension was all wrong. It had an El Camino front clip put in and rear axle together with the...

Has anybody got an idea as to what this grill shell is from?

In my intro thread I was asked about availability of cars and parts. I went to one of our local "dealers" this afternoon to get a few parts and took some photos of some of the cars in his place. This guy has plenty of parts too but to a great extent you need to know what you're looking for and...

I just got this speedo cluster today and it is labeled as coming from a Hudson. Unfortunately no model or year. What makes me wonder is that the few pics I could find of Hudson dashes makes me think it might not be from a Hudson. Any ideas?

I'm posting my full build thread that I've got on the HAMB here too, as I promised in my introduction thread. Once I'm up to date I'll post any new work to keep you guys updated. Enjoy!

I've been a member of the HAMB for a while now and only now came across this site. I'm currently finishing off a '53 Chevy 210 4dr and recently started a '34 Chevy sedan. Waiting in the queue is a '52 Chevy DeLuxe 4dr and a '54 Chevy Bel-Air 4dr.
