    Welding in patch panels

    Here are some patch panels I'm putting into my 65 Dodge. It's my first project doing body work so it's going slow, but I am making progress... Driver-side quarter - probably the worst place it could have rusted. There are two layers here. I did it in 5 separate pieces cause I **** at...

    Who has tried aligning your car yourself???

    Do you have some pictures of the plates you've made and your overall alignment setup?? Also, do you know the accuracy of the Hunter Alignment Machine? I've never checked my home alignment against a machine, but when I perform the alignment, I'm pretty meticulous about it. I read the ruler down...

    Who has tried aligning your car yourself???

    Spray Painting in garage

    What kind of mask/breather should I get if I plan on painting in my garage to be sure to protect myself from the fumes? I've been following along on this thread and plan on building temporary booth in my garage and shooting primer/basecoat/clearcoat.

    Anyone Else Do This on eBay?

    I agree with some of the others who mentioned that you should never reveal your interest before the very end of the auction. Why tip others off if you are trying to get a deal. People love the bidding wars and let me tell you they are easy to get sucked into. One method I've used to get good...

    Hello everyone, I was recently referred to this forum by a coworker (about a week ago) and have not been able to get anything done since... I've never joined a forum before because it seemed that most of the people posting replies were very unknowledgeable and generally uninformed. This forum...

    Valve jobs

    All, I'm new to this forum and wasn't sure where I should post first, but this thread seems like a good one to start with because I like engines and engine-building First off, simply lapping valves does not guarantee sealing of the valves to the seats.
