From PRI several years ago.
Yeah, only other way would be to enlarge the lightning bolt and keep the gear smaller so it's still circular...probably wouldn't work the best...
Make sure you keep the '80s GM steelies, and you might want to install some pedals to give it some oomph. Please don't add an engine, it'll steal...
Was going through some old pics and found these - it's @40StudeDude and his brother's cars, from Moab, UT in 2012. I might have posted one but...
Hell yeah!
Love the idea and came out great, but not digging the font - I think a simple block closer to the original might fit better. And what about doing...
I'm a bit biased, but I've always liked the '52 Cummins Indy 500 car. [IMG]
That's the shit! Just what it needed.
Either that, or try to find a gold rimmed stock-ish wheel of similar design. I agree, I don't think the fat chrome spokes match the overall look.
On the orange & white car, yes. But the OP's black car does indeed have a TBird scoop.
That looks fantastic. And I'm taking credit for the gold-with-white-outline FORD on the tailgate, even if you'd already thought of it. :)
I think the taillights will look killer, but not sold on that smooth tailgate...I think the original with the giant FORD's quite distinctive and...
That RPU is beautiful.
PCR test, not at-home. PCR should have emailed results.
That's what I thought when I got it...first thing I did was cut the hell out of my thumb with a Forstner drill bit. Shop time + COVID brain = danger!
That's not USPS's fault, that's just lazy half-assed shipping. Glad it wasn't damaged!
First picture...is that a little crack between the left plug port and exhaust valve opening?
And Rat Rod for that matter, if it's not perfectly shiny. People are simply ignorant about the terminology and what's considered an insult....
Bobby Unser ran over a buddy's foot TWICE at PRI, in different years! He kept his eye out for him after that.
I hope you laid your hand on his arm when you admitted to being the owner. Could have had some fun with that asshole!
Looking forward to seeing what you picked up! Wife and I stopped in Petaluma a few years ago, on our way from San Francisco up to Mendocino....
I vote for the other wheel, the sloping spokes match the feel of the car better than the T-shaped '41.
NO-NO I do not, my parents hadn't even met yet! Sounds delicious, though.
What'd you get, a Nikon Z fc? That looks like a great modern camera with convincing 35mm looks. I can't picture (har, har) you with a generic...

I prefer the air cleaner covers with the ridge in them. The decals might look ok if they're scaled down and redesigned to work with the smaller...
Bump, TRJ issues and Plymouth manual still available.
In my head, this is running double speed with Benny Hill music. What a great story.
Based on your truck's failure, I hope you build a shield for your tailshaft and driveshaft there...or you might end up more like that squirrel!...
Just tell them the '8' is a 'B'
