USING THE STOCK BACK GLASS FOR A 54 CHEVY CHOP
I would like to see you make your own engine mounts out of scratch.
I think it’d be cool to put up a how-to on seaming up hoods for these years. There are some cool tricks for peaking ’em and definitely some precautions to take so they don’t warp or crack. Just a thought…keep up the good work.
Yea i would say more rear end options for that V8 swap… Or a tech tip in depth of the whole process as so many people contradict each other..
CHEERSS!!!
I would like to see a rear end get cut for air bags in the back and how to put them on.
I have a 53 chevy 210 post,I want to know if supports are needed on the frame if I were to cut the top compleatly off hard top convertible style.
thanks for all the suggestions, Keep em coming.
any recommendations as to which fuel tank to use now that i have notched my frame & the car sits on the ground? i have seen many pictures with no indication as to has been used. i have heard that older mustang tanks work well. any help any of you can provide woud be great… by the way i am building a 1954 2dr sean custom.
I would like the cheaper and easier way to French your Headlights. I have a 52 Chevy Styleline and I have found a company that sells french kits but there up in the $250 range. I know there has to be cheaper way. They did it in the 50’s somehow right?
Any information regarding swapping in a later model (1963-up six cylinder with an automatic.
There are a ton of photos with tops chopped and there are a million options for the rear glass. Everybody goes the easy route and sinks a different piece of glass into the back. I would like to see a tech on how to use original rear glass. Either sinking it or cutting it.

My project is a ’49 Chev sedan delivery. I would like to see the various methods of smoothing the firewall. I have seen on this site some explanation, but would like to see more details. And yes, a ’49-’54 only forum would be great! Thanks for all of your efforts.
I have a 54 hardtop BA and I would like to see the easiest/cheapest way to upgrade from 6v to 12v.
