If anyone is interested in adding a different touch to their car, think about thins one. The railrods have always used "date nails" driven into the cross=ties to identify when they were laid. These nails are 1/4" OD and have the year embossed in the head. Find some at a local antique dealer, cut them off, thread them with a 1/4" die, have them chromed and you have a unique moniker of displaying your car's year of maufacture.

"Ovals are somethin to race Chevys on. The more blue the oval, the better the bite". "The word "Dodge", is somethin you do,.... not somethin you buy". "A fat, healthy "Rat", is your friend. The bigger, the better" There,.........I did it,..........bring it on................ blksheep.....a Bowtie Son.......in Charlotte blksheep [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Charlotte, North Carolina   Posted by fitzwell   -  12/21/2005 03:13 PM i just don't get you chevy guys....."at least they circled the problem"...................you can't even tell a circle from a oval normal??

Actually I have no preference. As long as it's different, then to me it's cool. Remember kids just say no, to frontwheel drive!

Seriously I admire you guys with your non-Chevy vehicles. Too confusing to me. Nothing works with anything else. My Dad has a Ford truck with a 351 W and could not find a tranny for it. It had to be one that worked with that particular engine. Makes my brain hurt.
