    Ebay/summit aftermarket steering columns

    I will beg you not to get that column. I personally know people that have bought those cheap knock off columns thinking they were saving money and being smart. All of them have failed. A couple were lucky and things happened when parked or at low speed. One friend wrecked his hot rod pick up as...

    Power window Stuck

    Most likely the window switch. Problem is, it could be either the driver side switch or passenger door switch. At least that's been my experience. The way GM wired them, could be either one.

    Are these available?

    Funny to see this post just now. I was just surfing Craigslist and saw these about an hour ago.... https://nh.craigslist.org/pts/d/nashua-squarebody-floor-mats/6952636056.html

    6' bedside availability

    The truck I just picked up has mint floors and supports, but both bed sides are pretty rough. I have seen all the patches available and could go that route if I have to. But I started looking for complete replacement bed sides. Goodmark lists them for roughly $900 per side. I also saw them on...

    Suspension Rebuild/Upgrade & Lowering Questions

    Great information on this post. I have just picked up an 87 R10 as well and have been looking for which way to go with things. Very informative with what you have done. I was thinking the same 3.5/4 drop. But looking at your last picture post wonder if the front is too low as compared to the...

    My pair....

    Thanks for the kind words fella's. The 55 is fun and for obvious reason near and dear to my heart. While it looks great in the pictures it has its battle scars and is showing its age. Been on the road since 1987 with that paint and interior. That very car is what led me into the collision...

    My pair....

    Lol..... Funny part is that I don't have s ton of cash in the Maverick. Lots and lots of labor in the garage though. Spent my whole career doing collision/restoration work though. Thanks,

    My pair....

    I still don't have my C10, although it looks like I may have a deal on one. When I do get it I will start a thread on it along with my plans on the build. In the mean time I thought I would share my two other toys. First up is my 55 Chevy BelAir. I built this car with my dad when I was just 17...

    Epoxy over Ospho. Yes or no?

    I don't know of any paint company that recommends etch primer over sand blast profile. These parts should be epoxied. Your best bet would be to get them back from blaster and put a couple good coats of epoxy on them as soon as possible. Then at your leisure you can poke out dents and do your...

    New from CT.....

    Good afternoon. My name is Glenn and I am a car guy, into hot rods, trucks etc etc. Been into this all my life. I have worked in the collision and restoration industry all my life. Right now I have a 55 Chevy Bel Air (mild custom), a 1972 Ford Maverick (pro touring) and am looking for a C10...
