Projects A gambino kustoms non traditional 52 chevy chassis lots of pics

this is Hoptup Jalop's 52 chevy weve been working on ,it has a fatman altra low,gambino taildrager ,and a new product weve been working on ,"lil dave's" aka motor mounts !

we've been monting the top for bars of the tri link on the front of the rear end housing ( instead of on top )to give us more clearance under the rear seat

and we've moved the botom bars to the bottom of the frame instead of in the midle of the frame

not 100% happy with the bottom bar that low to the ground but it words far better in athere areas

 

Looking good. Did you get a package today?

 

Looks good, like the motor mounts.

 

diggin your motor mount setup!

 

Those motor mounts are sick Al

 

Fantastic! I like the engine mounts.

 

Looking great Al,
I'll call you later when I get my list together.

 

Lovin the mounts cant wait to see it together!

 

Nice fresh ideas and weldings too... Please, keep the updates coming...

Looks great Al...Dave's motor mounts on Scott's car are as cool as the one's on the 40!!

What's the advantage of putting the bottom bar bracket further down on the frame?

Lets see more! Looks fine so far!

 

yes i did thanxs very much

 

here we go

 

is that a kustom 4-link kit? or is it one of the ones that you buy that are around 450.00? and what would something like that run? i need to get my 51 done with a 76 nova rear end that i have.

 

this one....

i gota take a better pic of this upper tri link bar

 

the notch on this car was done pre gambino notch kits ,it was done when the shop first opened and it was when adam "xadamx"owned the car ,we notched ,it on air shocks ,shave the key hole on the trunk and alex & jesse striped it

 

its the one that comes in our tail drager kit its made by chris alston chassis works
what you get in the kit is gambino notch
trianglated 4 bar
over the axel brackets for the bags
the are 585.00 for chevy and 595.00 for ford
bags sold separately

 

No worries.

Not to hijack, but it's looking good for the Starliner to go to SEMA.

 

so that sounds like its set up for bags? im running some old school hydraulics in my 51, is there a different set up for that. will this kit be at the show this weekend to look at? i'll have my booth there also so maybe we can chop it up then.

 

lookin good ..

thats great Kirk!

 

Nice Alex. I need to cruise by the shop. Do you have any pressure switches laying around for my set-up. Want you to check out the wiring job on the bags too, I think they should be strong now, but I want your opinion. Thanks for the help again.

So do you put a shifter boot or something on the bars where they come in through the floor, or will there be access from the bottom. Great work by the way.

 

it will work with hyros

 

those are prime examples of GOOD welds!!! pay attention people, once again amazing work from gambino's crew!! you hiring LOL

 

Very non-traditional... but I likey! You'll be hiding that IFS under the fenders anyway.

 

thanks my nefu kicked ass again he rules

we will be offering them in 3 forms
drilled front and back
drilled front only
and plain

thanxs ill tell dave
when they come to market they be called "lil daves"

will be avalible soon,small block chevys and m2's there always is a motor mount problem cause the steering wants to be ware the motor mounts are
this is are solution to the problema

im lovin the responce on the mounts thanxs cant wait for us to be selling the bad boys

more clearance under the back seat,in the past the top bars were ending up to high in the front mount.you want bolth bars parelrel to each other so there is hardly any pinion angle change,by mounting the top bar on the front of the rear end housing and droping the bottom bar to the bottom of the frame we gain almost 3 inches in clearance on the top bar under the back seat

 

Man, wish I was closer! Your work is always top notch Alex!

 

Damn Alex...I couldve used those motor mounts a few months ago!
Nice work as usual...will be keepin' an eye on this build...

 

Hey! thats my car!! Everything is looking fantastic as expected...I want to give Alex and the rest of the crew at Gambino Kustoms (Ash, Dave, Steve and Mike) a big thank you for everything you have done so far.
