Technical *** February 2016 Banger Meet - Extra day this year! ***

And RACE READY looks good to me, but a photo from further back showing the whole car would be good.

 

Bluto, that's what these were made for

 

That's crazy I'm in Redding and never saw that car for sale. It looks great. Getting rid of that piss yellow paint really makes it look better. Good call on not painting it flat black. Hopefully we can meet at Auburn.

 

Yeah I had to cut out pretty quick. My assistant was a little over the "old guy meeting"his exact words. We still need to get together for a BS session. That's great your car is in the Autorama. Maybe I'll see you there. I vote race ready no windshield

 

Oh, I do plan on getting some good pictures of all the hopped up bangers

That was the only picture I took the same day I made that tarp. I then rolled it up and made a carry/storage case then put it up in storage.
I will post some full pictures of it after I install it, pre autorama show!

Race ready it will be! (LITERALLY) except for the number!

 

I almost got that car from a friend of mine in Anderson, Tony at the Rock yard! It was really a great, complete little car!!!
Joe

 

No numbers? Whats a race car without numbers?

 

quick question ? im using a gm 1 wire alt. as soon as it energizes it pops a inline fuse . haven't had time to check it yet . any ideas appreciated ........... steve

 

I know! eh?

I never run a fuse from alt. to the battery. Maybe try fusible link wire?

 

Hey modelAsteve,
How would I go about finding a number that is valid to race the April F.A.S.T. hill climb? I have read the rules and got the car ready for inspection!
Thanks,
Joe

 

has had fuse for awhile . just started this . going to check it out in a few when it warms up a lil

 

the races have classes . talk to F.A.S.T. ...................... my car is a "V4F" ... v class - 4cyl - flathead

 

I don't think anyone from red bluff or redding are allowed ! LOL

 

That's funny, I needed a good laugh!!!

 

Whats a matter? You scared?

 

auburn now has 2 / year . april / oct ............. cya there

 

Is there a significant performance difference between the split-Y style ex. manifolds and a 4 into 1?

 

530SM Not sure what you are asking. Just show up- no special numbers needed. We will give you one.

 

yeah...i ran an ad on craigslist to trade for model A on craigslist and they called next day and deal was done if u are going to Auburn I will see you there. If u see my car come up and say hi Ron

 

Okay sounds good, I will be there!

 

I went on a small trip, about 30 miles from Red Bluff today up near Redding to meet with a few guys. Can anyone tell me who this is?

 

An ok looking guy with a GREAT roadster!

 

Ha ha, You know who he is? Dan Price! The maker of that BAD ASS Gen 2 Cragar! Standing proudly next to my roadster!
He liked how it turned out!
Joe

 

really like the motor . actually is it a really nice car with out fenders .... I know ... "we don't need no stikin fenders"

 

Is there a significant performance difference between the split-Y style ex. manifolds and a 4 into 1?
are you speaking 4-2 -- 4-1 . 4-1 being better ?

 

Yeah, like to keep the weight off!
No Fenders, No hood, No top but only good when No rain!!!

 

I like how it turned out! That roadster is awesome!

 

bitchen car......plain and simple.......those rear tires are lookin a little thin there....how does that happen?

 

Ha ha, the fronts are 17" x 6.50 and the rears are 18" x 7.50 balloon tires! Maybe it was the 20' burn out on blacktop?

 

Is he a local?Or did you just fly him in for an autograph
