Hot Rods Old fashioned flamethrowers

My 62 Galaxie has a 352 v8 2bbl and i am putting 8" flamethrowers on it and I would like every person on here to put pics of there flamethrower on here and discuss there opinions and ideas about old hand choke flamethrowing!

 

Too late I guess but go back and read what I mentioned in your original thread up top.

 

Wht? i thought i started a new thread

 

Flamethrowers? I never knew they let 12 year olds own cars in Indiana.

 

How could I not.........................

 

Ug i am 16 and all most have my drivers permit so yes i can own a car.

 

If you talk to an oldtimer,you dont need the use of the choke...
and the toggle switch only to turn on the "T" coil...just turn ign key off,coil on and you got flames.

 

Almost doesn't count. And you are way too young to smoke. Sadly many car events outlawed flamethrowers anyway.
Funny, where I almost grew up in central Illinois flamethrowers were rarely seen until the 80's the second incarnation of car shows.
Those things melt paint, tail lights, and pantie hose.

 

here are mine they are bigger now with a little refinement

 

Damned almost melted my monitor when I enlarged the photo. Told ya guys these are dangerous!

 

just think they are bigger now then in that picture

Your old thread does not go away because you start a new one if it did there would be nothing here.

Here is the deal kid, we rank flame throwers right up there with pomade and rolled cuffs. Sure some of the fellas still grease and roll their cuffs but that is because they think that makes them cool. It doesn't they just end up with stained pillow cases and pants that don't fit.

Look at it this way, at parties sometimes fellas decide to light farts, those are the fellas that have to main problems in life, the girls don't like them and they cannot carry on an intellegent conversation. They have to get attention some way.

Instead of wasting your time with flame throwers or lighting farts learn to carry on an intellegent conversation, build a decent car, and forget about the girls. If you don't pay any attention to the girls they will really want you, if you can carry on an intellegent conversation you will have something to do after you blow your load and if you learn to build a decent car you will have everyone's respect.

 

It adds attitude!

 

Do what you please kid, learn every aspect of what you intend on doing before doing it. Don't let anybody's words get you down. Everyone has an opinion. You want flame throwers? Do your research and make them the hottest flames around. To each thier own! Good luck!

 

My buddy Todd has a ridiculously, crazy set up. If you want specs., I can get you intouch with him.

 

ya, but they will be torch flames.

 

gee that was a nice biscane till he lit it on fire

 

Be sure to let your insurance company know of your idea for flame throwers!

 

Build your car the way you want

 

With the price of gas now days; I can't for the life of me understand, why anyone would want to blow fuel and burn it out the tail pipes!

 

that barbeque in the chevy trunk would be good at tailgate parties. hard to tell where the grille mounted. One thing for certain, you better have some loooong handled BBQ tools.

 

...and one day at band camp...have fun with it!

 

well put beaner!

 

Flamethrowers are dangerous and annoying. I have never seen a nice car that had them, and there is a reason for that. I worry about fuel leaks on the clunkers that these squirrels put flamethrowers on.

Please stop it.

 

Oh, and welcome to the H.A.M.B. I hope you have thick skin and will stick around. You will learn a lot.

 

My car club (Twisted Wrenches) have been doing this forever, I go to them for reference, currently I have gotten a 4bbl intake for the car and Holley 650 double pump for flamethrowing... These are some of the guys I hang around and learn from

 

sigh...

I wanna be cool

 

Hmmm...I'm not seeing the tradition in 8 inch flame throwing stacks. Is it just me?

 

I weep for our future...
