  1. teepee auto wrecking (outside of yakima)..i don't know if that is correct spelling...then there is a model t and model a ford wrecking yard in spokane..forgot the name though..
  2. I really love this thread, glad to see things are coming along,your pics of your front fenders are really helpful. My '33 Chrysler CT front pass side fender has a tear along the wheel well, and I have been scratching my head trying to figure out how about going about fixing it. Good Luck, Benny
  3. You know my book doesnt say too much about the seats..but i did re-read the production # and I think 460 includes the Traveller production..plus they made about 2900 taxi cabs for NYC..needless to say this is a real deal super find..doing the interior would be the hardest part i think anyway..benny
  4. i'm looking in my Desoto book and if it's a Custom Airstream 7-pass sdn only 460 were assembled it it's a Custom Airstream Traveler they only made 23..to bad i just don't have the room and the $$$.
  5. Hi I'm Benny I got what's left of a '51 Dodge Sportabout....i'm just going to use 18 gauge cold rolled and got me self a bead roller, a brake,and shear that can do straight cuts..and I'm just going to fab them..if you're building something that's going to be judged i doubt they'll tare the car apart like they looking for coke..so if they are a little different I wouldn't worry about it..and I don't know if you ever done floor pans before but a tip i pass on is do it while the car is on it's spring weight..not up in the air. Good luck and welcome! benny
  6. WoW that's like a lot of fun! I got a '28 Model A but before I build it I gots to do my '33 Chrysler first..so I'll be driving a mopar to a lot of Ford events:) Benny:cool:
  7. Heyyyyyy! Who let '31 Model A ford in there? lol Great photos! Wish I could have made it! Thanks so much for sharing:) Benny
  8. bummer, that would have been great to advertise your business.
  9. Thanks for posting I was wondering how the auction went, did you win "Your" sign? Benny
  10. btw I'm going on the assumption that the engine isnt all torn a part..if the heads off then yea..rebuild.
  11. if I were you..I wouldn't worry too much yet about that motor, if it were me ( and I did this with my straight 8 in my '33 chrysler) I wouldn't tear apart the engine yet, so long as a rod isnt going through it..that might be a good sign, first thing I'd do is pull the spark plugs and pour a teaspoon of ATF or Marvel mystery oil down each spark plug hole..let it soak for a couple days, get a hand crank or racket or what ever to see if it can turn by hand, if you can get it to turn by hand,good sign, next if you hear the compression that a good sign too, then get a new set of spark plugs..and you don't have you go to a specialty store to get them, i got my plugs for my '33 Chrysler at shuck's..14mm autolites..then get battery cables, battery, file the points and gas down the carb..and your engine might be just fine, check to see if it's got oil in it. Be leave it or not my '33 Chrysler sat for 40+ years..and it runs like a top..so you don't know until you check don't assume something is broke. that's how a lot of people who get burnt out cause they fix everything even things that don't need it..then they are out of money and patience. Good Luck! Benny
  12. Glad to hear you are keeping her. If I remember right I think Robert's Motor Parts sells the rubber floor mat material. I'm in the same boat with my '33 Chrysler Ct I had to tare out the original rubber mat..but you can't make an omelet with out cracking some eggs. good luck Mark! Benny
