Hot Rods supercharged banger modified...now has a V8

Killer! It does look like a cast part. I've been reading about these engines and found that they do have pressure to the rods. That will help you keep it together. A big improvement over As & Bs.

 

Six balls....yeah the blower wouldn't work without the pressurized system.

Thanks for the picks Clark
I started with an aftermarket T bucket frame project already in progress and the rear suspension is one thing I need to change.

 

Pictures, the HAMB wants pictures. Bob

 

Where the bloody 'ell do you find the time? Everything you build looks so damn cool. No jealousy from here at all. You bugger.
Cheers,
Stewart.

 

Thanks Stewart!!!
Clark

 

Bob, thanks for posting a pic for me... I STILL haven't figured out how to do it with the new system

Clark- can't wait to hear this thing come to life!

 

I guess I'll have to figure out the video deal when I get it fired.

Hey, Clark;

That grill shell looks *really* nice. You did a good job cutting & trimming.

It reminds me of the Fronty shell, w/a hint of Miller. .

I like!

Marcus...

 

I figured the grill out.....1928 Studebaker president

The sickness is strong in this one.... Digging the ole' school tech lessons. I am amazed.

 

Hmmm, guess I was off on the model, huh? At least I had the right brand

 

Dodge/Ply spindles on the D.B. axle, Clark? Great choice of rails, those Essex...
Did you bend up the lower 'stiffeners'?
I looked long and hard for Essexes, settled for '29-'32 Chevy rails.
The rear of the 9n: It looks like a '32-'48 trans pattern, is it?

 

Mike ...Ford spindles. Skidmarks here on the hamb reamed the axle to fit the Ford kingpins.
The stiffeners were stock....too cool. Had to leave them on.
Actually the motor takes a ring like a later flathead and them your standard flathead Trans bolts up. Right now I've got an open drive three speed. May go with the s10 Trans later
Clark

 

do you plan to make it road worthy. ? sure is pretty

 

Very impressive work. Damn Nice!

 

too cool!! can't wait to see it on the sand! lots of details and so simple at the same time. I like it. well done.

 

Beautiful modified Clark. Could you tell me please what color that is? What paint? That thing turned out really nice. Thanks,Bob.

 

Bob...right now it's just epoxy primer....I tinted it to match the paint.
Clark

 

This is awesome. Cant wait to see the finished version

 

Got the header and intake finished up
Clark

 

Looks great Clark!

 

That looks great. What paint die you use on the engine?

 

Six ball....Just a single stage over an epoxy primer. The color is a mixture of some left overs
Clark

 

What a neat project, nicely done.

 

Coming out real nice Clark. Really like the steering box mount you made, along with all the other neat tricks on rear suspension and other areas.

 

Dude!! so cool!! I can remember reading about Graham superchargers in my dad's old Motors Manuals when I was a kid. Thanks for building this rod!

P.S. the look-like-its-cast steering box mount fooled me 'till you said it was fabbed...super cool!

What an inspiring build Clark! It's going to look killer going out on the road.

 

Had to come up with something to get the throttle linkage high enough for the supercharger. Well I cut up a few Ford gas pedals and am using one as a bellcrank.
