I have owned this car for over 20 years. I started with big ambitions and low budget intending to make a nice car out of it. Got married , bought a house, 2 daughters came along. In other words, life got in the way. I never forgot about the car or even considered selling it. I was hoping to have it done in time e...

I have been using a cheapy rolling stool that my son bought from CTC. Not real nice to use but the price was right. The wheels are only about 1 1/2" so it gets caught on every little piece of crap on the floor. A while ago I seen a better one but at $450.00 US that was not happening. It had some cool features o...

It might be a Fulton sun shade, I don't know but I finally got it mounted after making the side and center brackets and buying the small center clips.

On my 29 model A, the pass door never shut right and was hard to open, especially from inside. I finally had the time to look at why and discovered the hinge had been welded on to cover up bad, rusted out metal and the welds bulged enough to stop the door from shutting correctly so I cut the hinge off, rest...

My best friend Keith and I are building a nostalgia altered powered by a 261 Chev/Pontiac 6 cylinder. He built the chassis at his home in Haida Gwaii, I joined him to finish it to this point and then I brought it back to Ontario to do the drive train. Here are some pictures of the build details so far

Been chipping away at my Delray for the last 15-17 yrs. Some time in between lost interest and it sat untouched for 4 or 5 years. I try to get some time at it on Sundays, but every Sunday.

So here is the all to familiar scenario. I just got my suburban back after a couple years at a friends getting some work done. I realized there was a lot more to be done and perhaps a decision had to be made. I decided that I would never get to the 27 Chev RP and 3 rides was really not practical anymore so here go...

It's Christmas and I just acquired this 1931 Ford Model A roadster Pickup. It is a driver, but I have lots of plans even though it will remain a four banger. It is currently in Edmonton and I haven't figured out how it is going to get here. I have several options, hire an enclosed transport, load it at so...

I picked up a 41 Chrysler about 4-1/2 years ago. I didn't like the front end so I figured I'd simply change the headlights and take the point off the front. How hard could it be? I started by cutting some fender away and setting a 37 Ford headlight bezel in the hole. This is when the %#$# hit the fan.

Hi all. After being prodded to do so in my other post - here is my latest build. A 1973 AMX Javelin - was originally a 401 4spd car when it was born.

As I mentioned over on the Bantam thread, I just acquired a tow vehicle. It is a 1962 Studebaker Lark Station Wagon. The body is rock solid as is everything underneath.

For those of us without plasma cutters, this is how I make tight curves in 16 gauge. I'm sure someone will tell me a better way. At least I hope so. I have 2 more to make. I could use a grinder for the outside curves but what the heck, I'm drilling anyway and I want to be precise.

Cuddles · Cuddles

Well it was a challenge. My old shock eyelets were only 1" wide so the mounts only accomodated 1". My new coil over eyelets are 1 1/2" wide with the rubber bushing/sleeve so I had to fab new mounts. I tacked them together and still have to weld them but they fit by wrapping under the frame to connect with th...

I love putting new, quality parts on my ride. Just a little Permatex anti-seize and the bushings and it should be a smoother ride than I ever had. At least that's the plan. And I'll only be broke for 3 months ! I can live with that.

I recently converted an old fire extinguisher into a space to store a tow cable because inside a 29 Tudor, there isn't a lot of space to store anything. My gas tank is under the rear window so I have a bit of space on either side of the tank but just enough for a jack & a tarp. I didn't add a nozzle, hose and...

In case anyone wants to do the same, I finally managed to mount my high beam hang ten foot pedal to my spoon gas pedal without damaging the gas pedal in any way. I understand the spoon pedal can't be welded and drilling might damage it so I thought about what options were left. I decided to tackle one step a...

I have 1 5/8" header pipes to cut at 1" intervals with a 15 degree angle on one end. I discovered that toilet paper cardboard rolls slide nicely over the pipe so I cut one end of the roll at 15 degrees. Then for every piece, I slide the roll over the pipe and mark it. Whether the straight cut side or the angl...

Well it takes a while fidgeting with them and deciding what materials work best and I ended up using old coat hangers cut to 4 1/4" and twisting them up to hold the bolts. Four curved pieces per clamp plus a shorter piece for a long loop for one side and then a small block of steel with two holes for bolts on th...

Fun to make. I just finished making a brace for my small homemade brake. I found the bends weren't as sharp in the centre before so I added this removable brace (for easy storage). I also made a hinge pin removal tool so I can take a hinge off my 42 and replace it with a passenger side mirror. The tool was fun...

My first attempt at making equadistant headers: First I used a metal flange as a template to mark on a strip of wood where the cylinders are. Then I used a whole saw bit to cut 8 round chunks out of a thick piece of plywood. Then I bolted four of them to the center of the cylinder marks on the strip of woo...

I finally got the headlights back on. A little welding and adjusting and the mounts fit just fine. Almost ready for Spring.

Cuddles · Cuddles

I think I found a way to incorporate mechanical instead of air to raise/lower my ride. I'll have to fab some pieces but that shouldn't be anything but fun. And I'll have to make some wide jack stands so my shocks stay under load so I can crawl under and get some measurements. What a blast ! So, first the st...

I think it is called a fan shroud that I just fabricated to go on the back of my track-T rad shell. I noticed that the model 'A' built by the Tucci Brothers in New York had this on their car so I figured it must be something I'm supposed to have on mine so with the weather so accommodating lately, I got right to...

I finally got the radiator shell on and almost finished - Not sure I like the paint so I'll play with that a bit. Have to move the headlight mounts a bit but generally, I think I'm almost done the track-T nose. And I couldn't have done it without Jari. He sure knows how to shape metal. I spent a lot of hour...
