some pics for the night shift

here are a few "updated" pics. not alot different but its got steering (almost) and the brakes are almost done they just need the lines plumbed. also got the sub floor almost done. i didnt finish the driver side because the clutch pedal isnt set up yet.

 

Man, I LIKE what you're doing! Remember hotrodding is about being an individual, keep it safe and us posted!

 

here is another cowl pic. i still havent trimmed any more or anything.

 

passengers gonna LOVE that Ebrake handle man! I like 'em, looks like a fun yard full of goodies... PM'd ya back about that engine.

 

hey thanks, trust me the passenger seat is roomy compared to the drivers seat.

 

we fired this car up a few weeks back and there are no issues with the engine and the tin. just thought i would bring this back hopefully next weekend i will have some more updated pics.

 

Well,your headlights are too small. Couldn't you find any big ones? Just kidding. Looks cool now with some paint on it. I'd definately drive it. Just wondering,do you only have one leg? Looks like the shifter is right where your right leg should be. Am I wrong,or is between your legs?

 

cool shit.

 

Are you having"FUN"?That's what really counts!

 

in the very last pic, it looks like the shifter is where his right elbow belongs...maybe I'm wrong...

 

The only thing you have to know, understand, remember and abide by is the scrub line rule.
If you don't , you'll likely pay for your error, and arrogance, by a demolished car, a trashed drivetrain, or possibly the big "D" for you, your passenger/s or some poor traveler/s on the highway.
Some simple sensible rules apply to all things mechanical.

 

Personally, I don't much care for it, but I do appreciate what you've done, created, and accomplished. I think the biggest problem I have is that I try to see myself getting into it - bad knees, back, and at 6'3" and 260, it'd be a pain. But hey, you built it, and you like it, so thrash and enjoy!

As a side note: I would try to move all of the rear brake lines to the front side of the rear end in an effort to "hide" them as much as possible. I know you are still building, but I think this would dramatically clean up the rear and almost make it look like you have no brake harware present! Just my opinion.

Overall, I think it looks great and you should enjoy it!

 

hey man from one young en to another keep up the cool shit dont worry about the old timers theyll catch on

if they were true rodders they would probabley have a comment about how cool it is cause thats the way they were doing em back in the day

but hey fuck em its yours and you built it

good luck man and shrug em off they just hatin

 

What he said. I can't count the number of times I've been asked when I'm going to finish my car, or something like "Why would you want to have a paint job thats not shiny?" Some people just don't get it and they never will. Just remember, the car/truck was built the way YOU like it.

 

my scrub line is fine i measured it the day i took these pics.

 

also the shifter is between my legs

 

Aw, crap.

It's back.
