This is great! Thanks.
Big thanks for posting this.
In this version, were the rear wheel openings modified into 56 Chevy openings? Or is it a custom shape?
There are a lot of options for stock 55-57 interiors out there, and I've seen a fella that lists a few custom kits via eBay, but does anyone know...
Thanks, Max.
I recently picked up a project with a pile of extra parts. While we were loading up I had thought this was a Hurst 3spd shifter, but we were in a...
Great thread. My son (16) and I just made a long, long, long round trip of Maine - Washington St - Maine to pickup a 57 hardtop that I owned in...
No Rods in my neighborhood during the mid 80's (north end of Bothell, Washington), lots of muscle though. We had a legit 69 1/2 Road Runner with...
There's an "Unsafe at any speed" joke sitting right there, but Diana looks like a lovely lady, and since this photo was from the 70's I would have...
and a titanium cup I hope.
I'm close to the Winterport Strip in Maine. They run lawn mowers there, and some of them are pretty fast (for a lawn mower). It would be a ton of...
Anyone have photos of that mini altered? Very cool.
buy a reamer and have it sent FedEx.
My 8 year old son and I saw them play last summer. Great show. Those guys sound perfect.
I'm not sure I could live in snake country. Venomous snakes CREEP me out. I grew up in western Washington and the worst thing there were black...
If it's hoarding, he's a better class of hoarder. Way better than a 2000 sq ft of home filled up with refuse and dead cats.
I use a dedicated wheel on a grinder for tungsten. I also keep an old beat up cordless drill by the grinder and chuck up the tungsten in the drill...
I've been doing the budgeted parts sourcing game the last 6 months or so. Trying to scrape together parts to do an on topic gas altered '23 T....
A tooth or two off when installing a new cam/timing set. The bent push rods were the first hint to my mistake.
Born in 1969. At first I was into VW's, but a family friend who lived down the street turned me on to muscle cars and tri-5 Chevy's. He had a 69...
Anyone using a Toyota truck axle, the type that uses a third member? I think they look better than a 10/12 bolt or ford 8.8", and there are a...
I should get the parts sometime this week. Once I'm positive I got the right parts I'll confirm I used the correct part numbers. The full $100...
I figure everything's been done for the first time by 4 or 5 different people, so I assumed this was done somewhere, for some reason. Just figured...
I'm building a T gas altered to run at our local 1/8th mile track (Inspired by SamIam's BFD). I'd love to run some vintage spindle mounted 12...
I'm building a gas altered using a T body and turtle deck. This scenario sadly is not even close to how things are for those of us living in the...
I'm trying to work out a clutch arraignment on a small block Chevy with a Lakewood bell housing and a 318 Muncie 3 speed. I'm thinking I'd like to...
I vote for the gas/fuel altered. A 96" wheel base and lots-O-motor........ I've started one this spring with a '23 T body and turtle deck. I'm...
Honestly, I've never seen that kind of setup. I've seen the couplers used on front engine dragsters, but never a solid shaft (outside of a torque...
I'm putting together an altered chassis with a solidly mounted rear axle and I'm looking for some input regarding the rear axle install. The axle...
I do have sfi 10.3. It's 90% specific to the cage and for modern altered cars 7.50 and slower. I will no doubt fall into that "slower" category. I...
