you know,if there the stock harley slip on's and not the aftermarket performance one's you can knock the baffels down with a round bar and hammer,that'll really get the neighbors pullin there kids in off the street{LOOK OUT!ITS COMMIN THIS WAY AHHHHHHHHHH!!!}

The baffels are already knocked out and the neighbors love me.

Looks good. Love the exhaust. Now I know what to do with the 100 plus take off mufflers in the warehouse.
If you have a hole saw and long extension bit drill the center baffles out instead of using a pipe and hammer. It will sound better.Otherwise you get a bit of a whistle sound.

yea,only had that whistle problem one time,ran the pipe through once more wiggled it around and it seemed to disappear.the bit and drill thing is a better idea got the rod stuck once too doin it right on a bike ...that sucked too. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Ohhhh Kaaaaay,
I'm gonna start a little controversy here.
I personally dig some of the slapped together Death Rod ideas, but I was sorta made to feel like an idiot for defending death rods the last time this shit came up.
Why the hell is THIS death rod o.k. and the "ORGAN GRINDER" wasn't?
I mean what the hell is the difference?
And for all of you all who don't think there was a precidence for DEATH RODS....Just take a look at "THE BUG"....That damn thing was a menace!...
http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Kool Rod. Keep making it better and better...(the key to a happy and healthy Death Rodding future)
Later,
JT.
The Organ Grinder for those that forgot....

Hey I gotta say I didn't realize I was so into the"deathrods", I was just tring ta have fun with crap no one else wanted. That organ grinder looks like mine only I don't have the wild pipes , yet. Keep stikin that middle finger up ta the proper world and have fun.
Hey it is all fun as long ya rebuild brakes and steering, right?? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Cool.......I'd like to see a more up-to-date photo of it in running condition. I can only assume you stuck a radiator and a few lights at it before driving it to the cookout, Right? I see the mechanical brakerods are in place. The mechanical brakes are good for about 30 mph. Oh, it looks like a menace to society alright. I can just see the flames comin outa the baffles at night...Must make a crazy noise too.

I like the Organ grinder. Besides that, as stripped down as it is it still looks safer than that sedan...

Hey Yngrodder how many of those carbs are actually working on that flatmotor? Looks like about enough total carburetion for a 350 SBC. That intake is seriously agro lookin'. Keep up the weird work.

The "Organ Grinder" would be in the QUICK DEATH Rod catagory with the 502 it has in it.

Thats pretty funny.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
And I agree with whats been said so far about YNGRODDER....Keep up the weird work!
That sedan is cool.....Just keep working on it and making it cooler.
It will really irk the guy who gave it to you if you were to smooth it out some, clean it up a little, get it road legal and sell it for $6000 to $10000 on egay!!!
Keep on saving the old stuff.....and keep on having fun.
