As a winter project I have decided to add A/C to the car. As most of you know, one thing leads to another.

But I would rather use my time doing other imp ... Read All ...Last Updated 11/28/2012 09:16 AM

When we repainted my 41, 5 or so years ago we did a cobbwebbing effect down the side between the chrome strips. Really neat look and not something you see often. Well we are finally getting around to doing the interior and would like to do some panels to match on the doors and dash. Problem being it was done with unreduced lacquer and then buried in clear. The lacquer was hard to find then and we used up what we had. Has anyone ever tried using a differant type of paint to do this? Or does anyone have some

A buddy of mine in the P-Town Pushrods just won the Hemi powered '71 Challenger Goodguys Giveaway car! Wow...he's so excited, can't hardly believe it! If you've seen this car up close you'd have to agree it's probably the nicest car they've done so far. Key # 14 fired it up! How cool is that!
His name is Doug Cabral, a long time member of the Pushrods (host club to 4 GGs events in Pleasanton). Doug is a Viet Nam vet that is very active in organizing activities and promotions for our Veterans. He is the guy

Got Balls?....I do ! Today I started installing my power window kits from Balls. What a pain in the A*%. Trimmed two areas of braces inside doors and still can't seem to get channel to line up? These are NOT as simple as they claim. Worked for three hours and basically got ZERO accomplished. Anyone out there put them in a 46/48 Ford? New relics might have been worth it but I'm stuck now.

November 22, 2012 08:20 PM in General DiscussionsLooking for pros and cons to using the Caddy Seville rear brake calipers on my Coupe. I want to install an emer brake, currently do not have one. I have GM metric calipers on the rear with 9" Ford. Looks like the Caddy calipers with the intregal emer brake would be the way to go. Looking for advice from those of you out there who have this set up.Last Updated 11/23/2012 09:39 AM

If someone has--- Questions I have are how effective are they ? To what degree do they hold the heat in? Normal exhaust headers can get 800 plus degrees, cast iron is less but steel headers really get hot. Gonna call them next week but like all they will tell you how wonderful it is.
