    This is a test to see if I can become somewhat computer literate

    I can't speak to computer literacy, but that tin is the single most beautiful way to de-emphasize a modern cage that I've seen to date. :cool:

    Oh yeah, nice idle too. :)

    First video of the new ride, looks like you may be getting the hang of this computer junk.
    Car looks & sounds great. That driveway looks just right for a short burnout with maybe just a little water under those slicks. :confused::D:eek:
     
  4. old sparks,
    Car sounds great! I agree with FTF on the tin looks awesome.

    Thanks for the positive feedback. I just hope it doesn`t embarrass me at the anra opener. The reason for the slicks is I`m the only one in my area ( mid cal.) that has one of these cars so Bracket racing I go. It would`nt take much to convert it back to a class car if it ever takes off.

    Great video, old sparks. When I build my steel bodied Bantam coupe the proportions will be close to your car.

    One question: how do you get in?

    Bobw, because I changed direction in the middle of the build, I ended up with an altered cage so now I have to enter and bail out of the top. The doors are only for access by tech and work on the car. My grandkids will drive it most of the time anyway.

    Thanks Dan. I have never seen a Hudson injected flathead 6 before. What a clean, sweet nostalgia gasser.
