Great Thread, Just found it and it took me an hour to go through it.
Gotta be more out there!

 

On post #454 check out the very cool tag centered on the rear crossmember, very subtle, looks nice! Awesome car

 

Subscribe. Just spent all morning reading.

 

Can you make those bigger?

 

One of my favorites on the HAMB.

 

Awwww. Shucks

 

What color did you use?

 

Classy interior, well thought out.

 

This was "finished" around Nov '11..This project ate my brain for 8 yrs !!! Started driving it April "12 I've put 800 miles on it and it's blast... 2300 Ford Turbo/T5 combo/ 2122#'s...

 

????????...................Green????????????

 

I was just re reading that. Looks like a smart ass answer. The colour was a custom mix. Couldn't tell you what it is.

Any new builds out there?

 

Bump for more........

 

What is the history of modified's? I love em.

 

Planning this one for a future project, 6 inch narrowed body on a chevy frame with a chrysler axle...

 

I love them but I'm going to sell mine when I can get the rest of the body patched up.

 

This car and driver are seriously modified for speed.<O</O

 

That red x looks fast!

 

Still working away on this one. I've gotten a little more done since these pictures but they are the most recent ones i have.

 

These things are addictive.

 

Different approach to the "modified" category. Unknown glass body, '69 Pontiac OHC-6 with Clifford intake and headers. 200-4R trans and S10 rear. That's a '36 Dodge front axle.

 

Looks like a fun driver...........Ralph

 

I guess the origins of a 'modified' were back when the good ol' boys would drag an abandoned model 't' from out behind the barn, stick an ohv conversion head on it (if they could afford it), move the body and engine as far back as possible and they'd race them on the flat tracks at the county fair after the horse races.
They kinda morphed out from there, narrowing the bodies and becoming single seaters and racing big tracks to streamiling and running at bonneville and maybe even the for-runner to a sprint car.
They make a sexy little hot rod no matter what the real origin.

 

thanks oj

 

Here is the one me and my pops are putting together. Slowly!

 

Well, I haven't shown pictures of mine in quite awhile, but it has moved indoors and I have been getting some stuff done with it lately. I might just let this one go pretty quickly though... Gotta make some clear time for the Roadster pickup and the Triumph bike.

 

I shot a couple of picts of one of my favorites, Chad Eschelman's Modified at L.A.R.S. this year too.
