btt

 

You going to raffle it off to charity when it's done?

 

FYI the only multicarb setup you'll find for a small block olds is gonna be Dual Quad. Offy makes em new. Might be cool to use a couple of those single 4bbl to dual 2bbl adapters.....makes it 4x2.

 

yea,i checked them out already.i'm looking for someone that has one.

 

i don't have any parts to donate, but i do have hands and tools, i'd be willing to donate my time and my tools if your interested. i live in FTW and you can get ahold of me either thru the Wreck Room, or thru Mark.

 

What point are you trying to prove?

 

i guess i'm 1st,but it's gotta be cheap,cuz i'm broke
your choice,i will donate either the gas pedal or the hoses,but not both.

 

Skratch, please tell us what are the names of the national and worldwide publications that have committed?
and what is the point that you need to prove?
not busting your balls here but we need more info, your request is quite vague and I don't think anyone will take you seriously without the details.
Thanks!

 

mag info...american,japanese and german.trust me...

my point...a desent,good lokking, porpostional,safe,good handling,fast,and cheap, hot rod can be built.not a ratrod!!

this is what hotroddings all about.it seems like alot of people have lost the idea behind.sure,it's about fun too.but,i hate looking at these cars that look like 80's rejects painted flat black with red rims and radial white walls.

 

sure.i'll take that pedal.pm me and i'll give you shiping info..

 

what kind of pedal do you want?

 

Who ends up with the truck you build from donated parts?Depding on the cause i think a lot of us might donate something.

 

since it is my truck.i thought i would it up with it.i figure it's no diffrent from all your buddies helping you out to get your car running,right?i would love to keep it in texas.and have it as a driver when i'm back home.go to the round up and that sort.i drive the shit out my cars,so this one would be the same.i put 30thousand mile on my 67toranado since last nov.maybe i'll raffle it off over a year.shit,i think it's a great idea.everyone can say they helped build that truck....

 

So you want all these people to donate parts so you can build yourself a rod....what a great idea.

 

you want something like this spoon,or can i make a custom pedal from scratch?

 

that's fine.....

who's next?

 

I was thinking of this exact same idea. Now if I could just get someone to donate a 32 roadster body and chassis, and engine, and transmission, and suspension, and electrics, and......

You all can say you built mine too! I'll even paint your names on it!

 

I am fairly new here I am probably One of the youngest guys on the hamb, and I am building my own truck on my own budget not everyone else' I think you are crazy. SAVE YOUR MONEY LIKE WE ALL DO AND BUILD THE DAMN THING YOURSELF.

 

i guess when your buddies come over and help they charge you?
both of y'all can out to the garage and work.and get of the computer then..i've been on the hamb fo 5 years helping people and giving advice.for free!!i helped with the first hamb chop,using my skill and time and gas.for a guy that just wanted his car chopped.so,i don't think i'm being an ass.if don't want to help. DON'T!

 

See if you can get a government grant and you can call it the welfare truck.
Maybe put the title in an illegal alien's name, they get a lot of free stuff.
Have you applied to FEMA?

 

How about you just get hold of the Major mag dummys that your sure that will do features of your car? truck? and tell em to call me. Shit I built my own car with my own money its done looks good and needs to be in a few mags. If you can get free shit and get mag coverage then i guess im stupid . I never made the connection
Dave
ps: I think your looking for sumpin for nothing...It dont work that way... get a job

 

thanks for the smart ass remark..you're really smart.if you don't want to help.DON't!

 

No smart ass my buddies don't charge me we help each other without asking people we don't know from across the country to give us hundreds of dollars in parts. You said build a hot rod cheap not for free with everyone' else's help and donations time and labor is also different than parts that have a price. I am just saying suck it up and save you don't build a hot rod in two weeks, alot of guys spend years building their rod.

 

wow,i can not believes this.you guys will bend over backwards to help somebody chop a car.run to the house and get parts for your freinds.i thought you guys were car guys..that's cool.makes me wonder what i'm doing.i help people out all the time.just to be helping.very cool,just because i want to build a truck for myself.now i'm an ass.weird.i could get major sponser and such.but,i thought it could have that down home feel about it.i was wrong......

you guys with the negative feed back can keep it to your selves!!

and don't help.

 

216 posts in 5 years. LOL!!!

I'll donate sum speeling lezons.

 

redeem yourself, show us your past projects, magazine coverage, etc, .

 

i'm not asking you to help.

 

How long you have been on the hamb has no importance. its the fact that an idiot wants everthing handed to him. for FREE.

 

Labor is one thing, free parts is another animal entirely. If you're in my neighborhood, I'd be glad to throw a few hours labor at it, but not my parts that I've worked hard to get.
