My 1935 Chev Sedan


Through this forum, I plan to share my trial and tribulations with owning and maintaining a Street Rod.
Be sure to visit often as new material will be posted as time progresses.

Introduction

Take a tour here to learn about the car as it was purchased in Sept 2000. Click on the photo.

Rear Shock Repair

Despite the healthy state of the car, we discovered the left rear shock had a serious fluid leak. Follow us along as we repair the troublesome unit. Click on the photo.

Front End

After the rear shocks have been repaired, we plan to tackle new turn signals for the front that will be mounted to the frame horns under the fenders. We will cover this future story here. Click on the photo.

Underside

Here are some photos taken of the underside of the car when it was up on the hoist at the alignment shop. Pictures like this are not possible at home while on 14 inch jack stands!.

Master Brake Cylinder Replacement

Come the first winter, it became apparant that the Master Brake Cylinder had to be replaced. Follow our experiences as we unravel the mysteries of stopping a Rod.

Dealing With The Carburetor

Normally Holleys, when set up, are virtually maintenance free. It appears mine had other ideas this year.

Adding Front Turn Signals

Even though the Rod came with front turn signals, we felt they were not visible enough being mounted behind the radiator grill so a replacement set was fabricated.
