Alan's Classic · 07-29-2011, 11:10 PM

Nice tips, thanks!!

Strodder · 07-30-2011, 10:06 AM

They were posted on a Motorcycle Forum I belong to. Another one is they use Pledge to polish there bikes. It's like a quick detailer for paint, chrome, and rubber. Who would think?

I used Lemon Pledge in the days before ArmorAll & such. Another good thing about using pledge, it promote seat belt usage. Your butt will slide ALL OVER if you are not strapped in.

Yes, Long and thin always goes in. But sometimes short and thick does the trick....

Not how deep in the well you go, it is how you dangle the bucket

Strodder · 08-02-2011, 10:47 PM

Size doesn't count, it's how you use it....

Strodder · 08-02-2011, 10:48 PM

I looked at my truck this last weekend..

wutnxt · 08-03-2011, 12:07 AM

No replacement........for displacement.....

watahyahknow · 08-03-2011, 05:59 AM

eeeehm displacement of air.............. a small(er) motor with forced induction (turbo or blower) can make enourmous power

Strodder · 08-06-2011, 12:26 PM

Cool picture.

Progress Buddy, it's a start.

Strodder · 08-13-2011, 09:17 AM

I really worked on it yesterday. I finished welding up the drip rail, and filled the dash speaker hole. Sunday I'll put some mud on it.
Picture to come so I can prove it.

bubba327 · 08-13-2011, 09:41 AM

Progress is made a little at a time !!

Strodder · 08-14-2011, 07:40 PM

OK here ya go.

Speaker hole.

Strodder · 08-14-2011, 07:46 PM

Welded up the seam after I hammered over the drip rail, and tried not to warp the roof.

Drip rail rough finish. Need to do a final finishing, but it was too hot, and the Bondo was drying too fast. Need to do it early in the morning.

66-PMD-GMC · 08-14-2011, 07:47 PM

I am guessing the two ducts are defrost vents.
Cool idea's in this build.

Strodder · 08-14-2011, 07:51 PM

I detailed the top of this 292 Y Block & enging compartment from that 57 Ranchero you see in the back ground. I also welded up 2 holes in the air cleaner top, and stripped off 3 different colors of paint down to bare metal then painted it gold. Just have to finish the ign wires. Looks good for a F*RD.

Thanks, and Yup, I'll either use these or the stock ones.

shrunken66stroker · 08-15-2011, 09:38 PM

I'm really thinking of poaching that drip rail idea now that I see it smoothed out. Make sure you post up pics after you prime it out. I can't wait so see it somewhat finished.

Strodder · 08-15-2011, 11:08 PM

You know I will Greg. I love the way it looks so far,

iehotrod · 08-17-2011, 12:27 AM

I cant wait for start my truck. Let me know when I can bring it over.

Strodder · 08-17-2011, 12:50 AM

Do you have everything you need? I still have to finish this Ranchero, and install a power brake unit on a Mustang. I've been waiting for parts. How about some time next week? Call me tomorrow.
