Looking damn good.

That's definately driver capable. Here's my 64 Valiant that I daily drove until mechanical issues took her off the road. Passenger front "floor pan" Driver floor pan The passenger goes through to the rear "pan" area as well. I'm working on getting the mechanicals straightened out to...

http://winstonsalem.craigslist.org/cto/1864457869.html Dunno if that's the year model range your looking for. There are several sites online that allow you to search an entire state's craigslist ads.

Exactly, not to mention all that shit eats away at the rim as well. None of them are intended for prolonged use. I've seen automotive rims that've been eaten so badly that they won't allow the bead to seat. Pure garbage.

http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/1884429250.html This is NOT my bike, I'd just love to see it saved, looks to be in pretty decent shape compared to most. Hope you guys don't mind me slapping it here since there's so much traffic in here. If I didn't total my car last weekend I'd be driving...

Just a little fyi in case you end up doing another seat pad with the diamond pleats, to get the pleats to be more prominant you need to sew the padding to the vinyl/leather. If the padding doesn't have a scrim backing you will need to add material to the back side as well to prevent the material...

This shall be interesting. If you look hard enough you will find customized ones in Japan. Though I don't recall anyone making a chopper out of one.

Holy crap, it's a hardknock cafe! ;-) I love the way it looks like a kids toy. Looks great, but what's with the two foot crankcase vent?

Re: 68 CL175 Project Vicarious - the heat is on...... Can't wait to see it complete. That's the nicest guard I've seen.

I dig the frame color. I don't think anyone will blame you for getting it rideable and focusing on pretty later. If I had everything to do so, I'd do that myself. :)

I've beat and pried the advancer on my cam more and it still has not come off. I'm ready to just pick up a seperate head and drop this one in some sort of solution or try a three jaw puller to rip that advancer off. So if the whole head is available, I'd be interested in the whole thing. I...

Is it just the cam and valves or the entire head as pictured?

The views of the time were for the most part that slave ownership was widely accepted. That is how they were aquired, they were slaves in Africa then they were slaves in America. Look at the way slaves were treated in Egypt. They were treated very well comparably. Even the slaves in Africa at...

My point is that the US was founded on the very same actions that he's bitching about. People are too worried about ownership, when in reality the land was there before and will be there after and it should be free to be used by anyone. This country was founded on murder. But everyone likes to...

This is why the term "ignorance is bliss" was coined. Such close-mindedness is what is abhorrent. The English settlers who came to America and established the colonies on stolen Native American land did so to be an indivdual establishment of colonies free of the religious and other tyronies set...
