You could always shorten your legs. Seriously for a moment, the thinner seat back and the seat frame moved back 1" would give you 2", which should be a great improvement for leg room. Being a little guy I dont have that problem, very clos

Gidday fellas, Pete: No problems at all, I'm do'in a bit of head scratching at the moment so a little more won't kill me. Neil: regarding the less padding in the seat idea, Ray (1928isgreat) suggested this to me which came directly from his auto tr

Thanks....George and I go back nearly 20 years. I wondered if he sent you a letter only or was it a sheet with the complete production data signed by a Mr Calverly? It's those comeplete model data with domestic and export data and engine numbers that

The top of the front seat joins the centre posts with a curved piece of wood approx 50mm x 30mm. you will need a pattern as it also has a twist in it. Unfortunately the 28 tourer I'm restoring at the moment went to the trimmers 2 weeks ago. As for mo

grant, sorry i haven't got photos or access to the top section as the upholstery is fitted. As far as I can see there is a 25x20mm rough sawn piece of timber attached to the 2 vertical members at 125mm off seat frame but thats as far as I can see.

Hi there, I have just fitted up my headlights with new parts from the filling station and all is now well. I now find that the lights point up slightly and that there is no adjustment via the bracket and attachment bolt to lower the bucket. Is ther

It's a light load... Class I. Manufactured trailer < 2,000 lbs loaded. Yes, I found a photo of one similar to the one that you're describing. I couldn't figure out what the long bar attaches to up front. But maybe it'll be obvious after I put

Brandon, I'm compiling a series of "kids" and "vintage cars" photos. I'd like to take you up on your offer and add this to the set. Hopefully you'll see it in the future (probably on the VCCA homepage first)....

Hey all, I am currently in the process of redoing all of my shock absorbers and going through the suspension. Can anyone tell me where I can find new bushing and what all I need to replace? Thanks, Davis38

Bill, What is the load you plan to tow? There used to be a trailer hitch made for them. Of course that was a few years ago (well maybe more than a few). Basically you need to span the spare tire pan with two cross pieces that go from frame rail to

Awesome picture! Keep it for him when he's 40. Reminds me of helping my Dad put the trim back on our '51 when it came back from the paint shop in 1981. Small hands and arms are sometimes the right tools!

My nephew is 11 years old. He's my sister's 3rd kid and the only one that seems to have taken an interest in old cars. He likes coming over and helping me out some time. I'm changing out the original 3 speed in my '57 Chevy for a factory 3 speed with

Any suggestions on where, or how, to add a trailer hitch to a C2 Corvette? (No need to post any negative comments about this. I've already heard enough about that from the local folks. Ha!)

Thanks Gene! Can you suggest any literature to learn more on enhancing a 37 216? Or any year 216? How does the 40 timing gear change or improve valve timing? What about a different camshaft? Anyone else out there that has been there, done that?

Yep... Thanks. Now... it's someone else's turn to submit an article about 1961, or 1971, or 1981. Let's move forward into the second-half of last century!!!
