Projects American Motors Build for the Southeast Gassers

Strictly business!

 

Aww, C'mon Boss.. Merry Christmas from down under. Love catchin' SEG on Youtube..

 

Thanks Quain. Thanks for watching and following.

 

Yes, but those are a work of art.

 

Had a good holiday break. Got a lot done. Added the frame from rear clip forward, basic cage in, engine and transmission in and located as to where she wants the shifter, seat mounts in, front axle narrowed and installed, ladder bars built, rear axle narrowed and installed. All in place. Need to finish cage, install the steering where she wants it, put the pedals where she wants them and keep marching on.

 

Really looks good Robert, You do everything first class.

 

You be busy

 

Very cool car for the wife!

 

Another good weekend. Seats have been located where she wants them as have the brake and clutch master cylinders and steering. Coming back apart to finish welding and detail work done. I hate transmission tunnels and firewalls, but that's next. Get it over with. SEGA banquet and anniversary this weekend so, the action (on the car ) might be a little limited.

 

Looking Great, that dash is Wild!

 

Thanks. Wish I could have used the dash, but it just didn't work out. It is factory welded in, not bolted.

 

That's too bad. If you save it , it would make a neat "wall hanger". This little beast will definitely be one of my favorites, it' s coming along Great.

 

The wagon will make it's first appearance at Shady Side Dragway on April 14. Probably be in primer and un-named. Car will most likely be black & blue in color to stay with the team name. Anyone have any suggestions on a name?

 

American Woman

Cool build.

 

X2 for American Woman. Released in '70, but just sounds right!

 

Awesome build!!!

This will be fun to follow along

Saltflats nailed it, "American Women" or spell it like it is on her shirt in first post. Wuman.
Either way cool car.

 

If ya don't go with American Woman, how bout The Peach Wagon

 

Here's some names we had picked out for Cynthia then someone came up with flower Power so we went that route.

Stubborn
misfit
Mom's Revenge
The Cleaner
Hippie
There was more but I can't find the list.

 

As long as it’s red white and blue any name will be alright!

 

It's got to be "Rambl'n Rita"

 

Black & Blue Too My suggestion

 

Ramblin woMan

 

Maybe it's just me...........I'd get a kick out of the juxtaposition of a red white and blue car named American Woman which was actually kinda an anti U.S. song.

 

You must have been on some different drugs than I was at that time.

 

"American Woman" is an anti war song and the woman in question was the Statue of Liberty.

I dont need your war machines

Now back to the build.

 

Rita (the driver) likes something like this!

 

I vote for the bottom one!!!! Larry

 

Rita likes the top one. She collects the Rosie the Riveter stuff. We'll see.
