DeathsDoorStep Update...Detroit coming fast

Mounted the water system overflow, and old Eelco tank, did not end up using the brackets that I built int the front cross member tube.....I think this is much kooler..............A big thanks to Curator for stopping over and helping out greatly with the wiring.You now can turn over the Hemi and everything else is wired such as water pump, fuel pump.....It is just days from firing up...As I add stuff to this thing .it is looking more and more like a giant Hotwheel..still have to weld the header tubes to the flanges...........Littleman

 

Wow all nice and shiney.....

 

The plan is to get it running again, then put on the 6x2 set up and build the linkage.........Littleman

 

Yep! Cool as hell.................. Bill

 

GO Man GO! Need a little Majik? Let us know when you are gonna light it and we'll do a big collective H.A.M.B. Rain er.....uh......Gasdance. Man this car is fukin sick.

 

Looks great, no, It looks awesome

Can't wait to see it.

 

the motor city will never be the same. that thing is sick man.

 

Very nice and Donovan covers too!

 

what are your plans for the front of the frame (where the horns would have been.)

looks killer, small children and old women, BEWARE!!!!

 

It just keeps looking better and better. Keep up the good work.

 

You're almost there, keep pushing...

 

At this time I do not know, so Iam just not doing anything with them as of yet.............Littleman

 

Damn Littleman, the coupe is looking realy good. I wish I could be there for the maiden voyage..

Welded the chrome header tubes to the flanges today, last night mounted electric fan to the radiator and a few other things.the list is getting much shorter..........I think I will drill the visor Monday evening and do more prep for the firing................Littleman

 

Cool... I remember we were told that you will leave the front open but are you planning to use headlights?

 

Actually the other night, Curator and I where holding up a couple different style headlights on it, just need to find the right size and look, so far the front runner is a White truck guide side mounted type light, or at least I think that what it is, Curator brought it over........still looking....Littleman

 

Great. It screams them! A pair of E&J's would be bitchin'...

 

Yuck.....I hate those things. '34 Commercial lights mounted low would rule.

 

oh, man......that thing just keeps getting better!!!

thanks for keeping us in pictures...

 

that car is soo badass i think that this is one of the most well built wild 5 windows i've ever seen..were in ohio are you?

 

I have thoughts of a pair of lights that are actuated and pop out the side of the cowl, but room is real tight, maybe a modern bulb in two larger chrome tactometer cups ?...........it will have to have some lights to keep the koppers from pulling me over, thats why I like the hidden lights in the cowl, just so when they pull me over and they say you have no lights.and say what do you mean and hit the switch and scare the bajeebers out of them as they shoot out the sides of the cowl right where they are standing..........Littleman

 

SOO bitchin'.

Just an idea, but have you thought about making the headlights "quick disconnect" style? Seems like headlights might hurt the 'drag car' image, but that might just be me.

Keep it up...you're gonna make it.

 

Oops...posted too soon.

Now your talkin'! I like that idea.

 

I totally agree, if the lights end up front, they will be designed for quick take off...............if the lights end up front it will be hard to come up with something that does not kill the feel of the car..............but I may get lucky....Littleman

 

lookin good littleman
