I posted these on the Garage Journal, and thought some of you might like to see all that junk as well...
I don't see my old 51 in the picture.Hey sell me that 27 body or that roadster out by the shed no for real a least the 27 touring body.Show them all the stuff you have over there you horder your as bad as me.At least your young enough to maybe do half of them cars before you become a broken down old bastard. hahahaha are those 30 or 31's in the back ground .Dam I need to get a scooter for webster.pm me when you log in to night.
It doesn't collect dust, too much wind in there. Hey Jon, I'm going to make plans with Joe after we get back from vaca. to take the jonboat up the Alafia, grab a beer at the Shed and drag that "A" rear end at my buddies place back home in Joes truck. I'm thinking Sat. Oct. 14. When do you get off work?
Here you go antibilly...follow the links backward and watch this one go from stocker to hotrod in a combined total of about...maybe 5 weekends, since I work fulltime, and have very little time to work on it. I think me and Tim are doing a fine job on our second hotrod built from nothing! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=130793 No trading, no ebay, no buying a running 4-door from the autotrader....just collecting the parts I need, and building a collection of cars that I've been dreaming of owning! We're also working on a hemi-powered model A roadster, and a buddy of mine and REJ's is working on a hemi-powered 29 coupe for me with some of those dust-covered parts. But thanks for coming out. Here's the only shot I have of the roadster....
Actually....One of those model A's has the "truck conversion" on it, and it looks like an old 'Shine hauler!
No but I missed a chopped 32 coupe on a 34 frame for $3,200 a couple of years ago at the swapmeet....I'm still sick about that one.
Thats all youve got for a slam? If thats the case sweet! Ill keep buying trading and e baying while you fuckers sit in the Orange groves finger fucking each other dreaming of the day when yet another RAT ROD will be on the road!
Good come-back Mike! Did you even look at the Truck threads? Oh...That's right they don't "serve" your ego so why would you even care! Thanks for coming on here with your negative abrasive attitude and hi-jacking the thread! What's the matter? Did your thread about your club not get the response that you expected? Maybe it's because most people realize that the only reason you're back on here is you bought an old car and now you want the attention and title of "El Presidente for Life" again. "No old car: the clubs dissolved everyone go home." Old car: "It's back on, I'm president." Why do you always have to be a dick to us? We've always supported you Orlando guys, and went to your shows, and tried to be nice to you. Tim busts your balls sometimes, but it's because you get so worked up over it. You never took the time to find out anything about any of us...you probably don't even no my real name (hint: My first name was mentioned in this thread). That ebay thing wasn't a slam, but since you think the world revolves around you, I could see how you would think it was....I was saying that I prefer to decide what cars I want, find them, decide what engine, find it, gather all the parts, and build the car I originally wanted, that takes longer than aquireing an allready running car and becoming instant "joe hot-rodder", like alot of people do. I have nothing against buying or trading for a finished or near-finished car, I even owned a 48 plymouth, that I just sold, that I traded one of the last of my muscle cars for. It had a small block chevy in it, and it was a decent driver, but you probably never knew I had it, because I didn't post 12 pics a day of it on here. As far as RAT RODs go....I guess "El Mosquito" "El Poncharello" and the "Green Bean" were RODDERS JOURNAL quality cars. Since your the absolute KING of dishing it out, and not being able to take it, why don't we just save the onslaught of "Sharks vs Jets" crap, and you just do me a favor and don't post on this thread anymore. I'll be in the shop later finger fucking my freinds and building another HOT ROD. -JON ********
While we're on the subject of finger fucking..ya know dv8 only has two fingers and a thumb on his right hand...but this was birth thing..he didn't get them cut off like a real rodder..so these fingers are THICK and they have the 2" wide fingernail. Once you get past that fingernail..you're ok...well I guess OK is a realative term..so Mike since your so into it...maybe we have big surprise for you next swap meet...Just remember it only hurts if you tense up...oh well I guess hurts is a realative term too. TIm MBL
cool projects......takes a lot of time and $$ to gather stuff......anyone with a little $$ can call speedway...... keep us posted...
Thanks. I put a lot of miles in at the swapmeets, and sometimes it pays to have connections, by stoping and talking to people at the swaps. I've made a ton of freinds that way to. I actually end up spending more money on speed parts for the cars than the original purchase of the car or body! Flathead and Hemi stuff ain't cheap...but it makes the difference over a bellybutton car in the end.
Ya know what Ive got to say Im sorry for hijacking this thread by being a bully! I watched "The BenchWarmers" last night with my son and I should have learned something. My hats off to your progress and sweet stash of vintage parts. You guys have come along way and are making great strides in the hot rod world Have a great weekend and send the Family my love!
Well outside of that Mr. Lincoln, how was the theature? (St. Peter to Abe Lincoln) Gary 4T950 Chevy Guy
Just ignore Antibilly.....he's having an identity crisis right now......he has always had trouble with his pick up lines and dating.....he was really trying to ask you out, he just comes across all wrong.... Yeah, I know exactly what you are talking about.......I've traded around, chased leads and picked up great deals for everything......the body and speed equipment is what'll set you back...
