dare to be different pic thread

A friend of mine in Ocala built this one a year or two ago, still owns it. I beleive it started out as a 50-52 Dodge.

 

I'd love too see that bus dragster run down quarter mile, any vids?

 

Na, I just found it on another hot rod site under the same kinda thread.

 

Chucky just recently sold it, I think it went to NorCal.

CBB

 

ok got some more to add.
always thought Divcos had the dare to be different label.





here's two slick rides



now here's two radical rides that you'll never see another one of!

 

That's probably a 38 Chrysler, or at least a '38 nose grafted on. The 39 Chrysler nose is my avatar pic. This is on the 'bay right now, it has a 500 caddy motor.

 

Is that the same truck that lived in Nashville this past summer?(39 Chrysler p/u) I saw it almost every weekend. It looks like it even has Gators pinstripping on the hood

 

Damn..those lines flow really nice...give us a little more info on this!

 

Yeah, belongs to a guy named Larry in Nashville, I do a lot of striping for him. He's a wheeler dealer and has a couple dozen nice cars - including my '53 F100 (after he begged me to sell it to him for 6 months ) He leans toward unusual stuff, he's also got a flathead powered bobber truck made from a cut down White tractor trailer cab.

 

There is a write up on Hotrod Magazines Website in the feature section under Chevy.

 

I never realized Lowered Henry J's looked so good.

 

that is more of "dare to Be Kickass" then really anything else...Really diggin this

 

Any questions class?

 

No pics yet, but after some long thinking, I plan on finishing my '66 El Camino in a bellflower '60s custom style. Lots of people bitch about it, but whatever it's my fucking car and I'm gonna be driving it. Dare to be different Some of the stuff on here is really awesome

 

Cannot find the pics. THere was a guy at the Woodward Dream Cruise in 08' that had a 50's BMW, with the flip open front. It was running a traverse mounted small block, psycadelic paint and red pexi-glass windows. 13 or 14 inch wheels. Actually cleanly done, but should have had porta-potty seats!

Somebody else had to also have spotted it, it was hard to miss! Stuck out in the sea of muscle cars and fiberglass.

 

how about this Henry J on '86 Turbo LeBaron floor pan

or this '57 DeSoto sheetmetal on '95 Mark 8


or this shortened '41 Lincoln Continental with stretchedcowl, lift off hard top and Pacer front susp.

 

Guess that makes it a Henry J K Car

 

I first thought this was the front, ha ha. I sort of like this view in an odd Buck Rogers sort of way. Anyone know what it is (or was)?

 

Citroen 2CV.

 

I see it now. A kid in my neighborhood back in Newburgh, NY had one of those when I was growing up (+ or - '65).

Anyone body else have any more different stuff?

 

This car is BAD ASS! I study it often in the magazine. I love the fact that you used a LS motor. Those engines are fricking awesome. Not to mention the work on the body. That took vision and hard work. Good job. I'd love a video from in the car of you wringing it out! ha ha ha. I'd settle for you telling me how fast it is.

 

Looks finished to me.

I really like that "outa the box" work!
"keep thinkin' Butch, that's what you're good at"

 

I'm a fan of bigguns...but that poor thing needs a back brace.

 

This is my favorite... local guy from St. Louis Here's a vid of it. 60's chevy pu with some imperial body mods. almost looks stock. Ha ha.

^^ here is a pic of the pink freak..for starters just the color scheme alone would qualify it for this thread..

 

I think this is still evolving, but here it is the last time I saw it...
