    With a pile of parts laying around Man-a-fre decided to put something together in the flair of the east coast. I stopped on my way to KKOA Salina and took some photos and asked for me to post them.

    It's obviously alot of mock up but he thought you guys might like a look :)

    Just exactly how many inches is that channeled? I'm surprised no one's made a comment about all those axles and 'bones. How'd he get so many of them?

    Jeff's got a knack for things finding him :)

    I think it's chanelled the depth of the frame and sectioned maybe 4 inches

    Lies, your right haha. It is real short though. Can't recall what it's out of.

    I just keep thinking it needs some headers like the black possibly nail head powered coupe from circle city hotrods

    Where's the Man-A-Fre 4x2 intake? Saw one on a rod this weekend at the GoodGuys Northwest show. Looked as trick as ever.

    scroll down and youll see a couple purple east coast cars, the one i was thinking of is called "the twilight zone" its the one with the nerf bars and quad head lights. it reminds me of jeffs car a little less now that i look at the pix but still a cool thread of similar cars
