Technical Has any of you guys ever seen one of these?

A faux rearend housing cover my father bought back in the 80s at a swapmeet?

 

Very cool..

Sent from my SM-J320V using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

 

Yes, a local guy had one under a roadster. Looks real from a short distance.

-Abone.

 

I remember when he bought it and said it wouldn't clear a 32 gas tank.So he though it in a corner till the other day when i found it.

 

Eek

 

That's cool.

 

Yep, had one. Put out by Pro Car out of Ohio, I think. Street and Performance now has them, I believe. Made one for 8" and 9" Ford and one for GM rear.

 

Looks neat
Better then those “covers” you can buy now a days
Lotta engineering in this one just for a look!

 

Had one in the mid eighties on a nine inch Ford. Was called a Slick Change Cover. Fooled even circle track guys.

 

That's not cool.

 

So you going to use it? Not everyone can afford real.

 

the automotive equivalent of sticking a rolled up pair of socks in your pants.

 

Or a condom filled with Jello...

 

In front or back ?...

 

tough crowd!

 

hahahahah....

 

Back!!!!

This belongs at the front


The Automotive equivalent of a "Blow Up Doll"

 

So is open exhaust on stock low compression engines, but people think it makes their ride a hot rod. I kinda like the cover myself. Not sure I'd use it.

 

And another thread strays........

 

It is the most intricate I've ever seen..

 

Wonder what the workers say in China while they are making these things?

 

I wonder how many people with real quick changes actually change their gears at some point.

 

I'm with you seb, first problem I had with this thread was when a stranger asks me if I've ever seen one of these before.

 

sum ting wong

 

I really didn't think it was much because never seen another one like it LOL .Maybe i'll call pickers

 

Ask Don Garlits...... He's the source of that nonsense.

 

Would make great bookends.

 

that does look pretty good; and it's cheaper than a jaguar rear. remember when guys made their mills look hot by mounting the carb inside an empty supercharger case?

 

Like this one.

 

I did. Don't have the car anymore. But the car i am now affiliated with changes gears now and then
