Very nice show. Weather turned out nice too. Thanks to the Kontinentals for doing such a good job!
found a set of wheels that are a mystery to me. They look like a goofy mix between Rader’s, and “Hollywood” Wheels. Anybody know what they are?...
The whole reason for not using the whole assembly is the wheel track is about a mile off. It's way to narrow. The Ultravan is 8 foot wide. The...
I kinda thought about that. like bolting up a supercharged 3.8 liter V6 out of a 90's Buick blah-blah, but the corvair tranny goes in the reverse...
Thanks for all the advice. I do love the 425. My confession is that I want to put this mess in a vintage motorhome. I have a 1967 Ultravan that...
I'm cooking up a project that will involve a '66 toronado transaxle in the back for rear wheel drive. The 425 needs to be rebuilt, but am...
A great candidate for a drive-in hot rod movie is "Pit Stop". It stars Sid Haig and has George Barris in it as well. Has some Barris kustoms...
You can flake it silver, then put multiple coats of candy blue clear over it until it is as dark as you want. each coat makes it a little darker,...
[ATTACH] Ryan O'neal was pretty tough in "The Driver"
[ATTACH]. My vote is for Sid Haig playing "Hawk" in the Jack Hill film Pit Stop from 1969
You speak spanish?? Also, I heard from the race promoters that someone will be doing a movie/documentary about this event. [ATTACH]...
There is a Traditional only off road race going on in Mexico this September. The same one that Mickey Thompson, Steve Mcqueen, Parnelli Jones,...
Ultra-boss! I remember seeing a Muntz stereo ad claiming the Voxmobile had one of their tape players in it. It would make sense though. I...
Missed this one on Ebay.[ATTACH]
No hemis, that's for sure.
No, Seriously, glad you got them home Coye. Better time spent than going to Moultrie.
I hate you, and I wish you were dead!
That does look like it. still a little different, but definitely kissing cousins.
You're right , "why didn't I think of that" moment exactly. It looks so space-age, like it came from a 50's Harley Earl Motorama showcar. Or a...
For the price and availability....PB Blaster. It may not be the absolute best, but you don't have to mail order or find a airport or swedish car...
I don't know what the steering column is. The donor cars could have been anything,(and they were) as long as the wheel base was the same. And...
I know it's out of a Wildfire. But I was also told it's not stock for that car. The Wildfire is a kit car and the wheel didn't come with the...

as tempted as I am to list one-off "Motorama" concept cars, or some Barris and Roth showrods....I'll stick to what I think the original point of...
Not a Gasser, but my 65' Chevy Surf Van. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I also have a roof section from a mid 40's ford if anyone needs one for a chop project or something. It came off a 2-door 46'. You need one,...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Thanks for all the welcomes!! enough buggies, here's my 65' chevy sportvan deluxe.
