thats a nice looking car. I am not certain of the wheels you need but they exists. As well you can find tires for the original rims and hex adapters for the 1/4" rear axles to fit modern hex wheels. Make a separate thread.

So you got white rpm and it binds ? Yeah on the front bulkhead there is only a little clearance between in inner camber adjustment and the steering bellcrank ball cups.

Batt tech is going change on the ten fold in the next few years, watch for it. Huge changes are on the horizon, it might take...

Just wondering what everyone uses? I've been running the old school Trinity oil forever, but my supply is just about out. Is there something newer better I'm missing? Bronze bushings are best served by straight oil. Bushings can be heated until the point when oil starts running out and quench it in...

I have been happy with a set of nylon jaw pliers. It can still mar metal, but it easier to keep parts from getting marred

Not sure how much success you'll have trying to drill the 1/4" axle taper. Getting off center could make for a really wobbly wheel. Your rear wheel options probably are: 1. Get 3/16" rear stub axles and flanged bearings. Axles aren't readily available. 2. Get Custom Works Short CVD kit an...

From the long view the first cheapest tub pan turned out pretty great. I enjoyed working on it so a I bought another super cheap pan as a project. 514DA214-1C6B-4F44-8B3E-04D01978D585.jpeg 80BAF295-0499-42AA-B711-73A401DD35DD.jpeg It was listed as being in rough shape and came with and came with a n...

Soaking in a bag of greased lightning to deanodize it.

Can B4 or B44 ones be used?
