You've got more cool stuff than any one man should be allowed to have! Jealous?Me? You bet your **** I'm jealous!:lol_hitti Love that surface plate,it would certainly make chassis building easier. Thanks for the message,PM'd you. Mark.

She's a sweetheart!Great video. Know what you're saying.I hated dogs until my wife brought Spike home without me knowing!Like you said,couldn't be without him now. And he's into hot rods!

Just found this thread via the 'Best of 2010' thread.A well deserved mention. Nice job Curt!

Wow,what a place! Any up-dates on the R.P.U.'s?

So many great garage/workshops on here.Probably many I've not seen yet.My favourite at the moment,without a doubt,is Kiwi Kev's,even though he seems to have an unhealthy fettish for gas pedals!:lol_hitti Great place with lots of character and,of course,**** loads of cool hot rod stuff.

Have you tried soaking the base of the plug with WD40?Try tightening it slightly first to break the seal before undoing. If that don't work,remove the fuel tank and any nearby wiring etc. and get some heat on the plug.That should shift it. Wipe a little copper grease on the threads of the new...

Nice job on the retaining wall.I tried building a dry stone wall a couple of years ago.I made an **** of it! Spoke to the demolision guys today,they're keeping all the 6x2's for me.No price yet but should get a good deal.The house is only around 10 years old(!) so the timber is apparently in...

Love the recycling aspect of this build.Nothing like getting a good deal on materials! When driving home today,I noticed that the house at the end of our access road is due to get demolished.Fences and signs went up today.I'll visit them tomorrow and see if I can get a deal on the 6x2's from the...

Man,the snow had just about cleared then,in the last couple of days,we got hit with another 6 inches.i'm sick of the ****** weather up here! The lathe I have is a British make.That model was manufactured between,I think,'47 and the mid '70's.Thanks for the offer of help,I should be o.k. though...

I know next to nothing about lathes.I've been told that Myford were one of the best small lathes available though.I got a lot of extras with it,four paw chuck,vertical milling attachment and other stuff that I've yet to figure out.Just hope I can learn enough to do small items for the car. If...

Re: E-tek Resto's 56 Chevy Truck Maybe not the best choice of paint for my application then(Hi-Boy roadster pick up).Thanks for the heads-up,much appreciated.:thumbup:

Re: E-tek Resto's 56 Chevy Truck Just read this from the start.Great project,great thread.Thanks for taking the time to post,and in such detail too. I'm thinking of using POR15 for the frame and suspension components on my build.How does it hold up in use,i.e. stone chips etc? Truck's going to...
