I really shouldn't be looking at this stuff!! Like dangling coke in front of a coke head!

 

Luck… some guys have all of it!

I saw a set of Fenton exhaust manifolds on eBay last night. I was going to text you about them, but then I saw the seller! haha

 

Looks great Tony! You're going to be on the road before I am.

Mine runs....just doesn't stop yet. I need to finish plumbing the brakes but its so damn COLD. Even with the heater going in the garage progress is slow.

Motor sounds great....all my neighbors can attest to that.

 

This is taking way too long!!!!

 

My neighbors love me too.

We had a very nice visit with the Ross crew at Good-Guy's in Columbus last summer. What a wealth of knowledge and very nice old school guy! Great thread and build here.

He gave us some really good information on our Dodge Red Ram 270 "Baby Hemi" build that we have almost ready to go. More to follow.

Awesome, can't wait to see it in Detroit

 

Tony, Killer little coupe project. Remember you mentioning it, when we were at the shop. Ramblur swears, he used to see a similar Hot Rod, lurking around that area, back in the day.
Hard to believe there are still rust free examples stashed away. Thanks for sharing.

JT

p.s. nice engine adapter!

 

Well....Yours is a 4 1/2" chop highboy --- mine is channelled 4" and unchopped.

I think we're about the same height (6' 2ish) ....We'll see who fits better in their car.

 

Thanks JT !
