I hate renting stuff time and time again, so I finally built my own shop crane. If I had space, I would have bought one and modified it. But the space you see, is what I've got. My garage is 15 x 21 inside. Once I have my truck inside (jammed tight to the wall) this is all I have left to work in due to the rest of the...

I ha...

Hi. my name is John Arps. I am in the planning stages of having a cruise in Windsor On. in the summer of 2013.

The promotion comp...

Once I finish sandblasting and painting my front engine dragster project I will have to get it re-certified. The tag on it now, has run out. It says "Sportsman NHRA". Tag is punched out 6/05. Certified 7.50 and slower. So I guess, would you recommend getting an NHRA sticker again or go with a...

Every year I see some guy driving a classic in the snow. Usually not a high end car, but still something that should be put away for the season. Todays sighting was a 70-72 flat black or charcoal Duster...on a night where I had sat in 2 traffic jams, one watching and ambulance trying to navigate through to...

As you may have guessed, I'm pretty new to this classic American car world. In the UK we grew up with small cars and small engines. For V8's all we ever had was the Rover V8 P.O.S with less power than a honda, lol. So we focussed more on 4 pot inline engines with turbos. We also didn't do much with gearbox's an...
I have a model A frame in good shape. No soft spots. All the crossmembers are there. The rear one has a small split in it but we will weld it and smooth it out. It comes with a front axle. The axle has chevy disc brakes with flex lines and 4 link bars. Kingpins are worn a bit. I also have an old rear buggy spring. $...

Looking for this piece for a '38 Ford dash. I'd like one that's pretty good without needing to be rechromed. It has the cigar lighter in it normally but I don't care if that's there or not.

Stroker McGurk suggested I post here as I would like some help checking out a trailer for sale in that area... My 1954 F-100's bed has some issues and I just saw a Kijiji ad (number 424929133) advertising a trailer made out of the bed of an F-100. This could solve my floor / fenders / tailgate issues (maybe...
