Hot Rods Toymaker's Evil Twin Engine Dragster

You are an artist Rocky, it's going to look spectacular with all of the bits painted and plated. The body will be the icing on the cake! You could save yourself a lot of fiberglass work and make the tonneau out of aluminum.

 

Rocky, Your rail looks really mean with the "T" body installed. Wish you all the best on your "Barn Storming Tour !" . Show them how we do it California.

Wow Roc those manifolds look Bitchin!!!!
the tank looks great and by the time you get through the ol Evil twin will be grinnin from ear to ear...............

 

Thanks guys! I won't be happy until the T body is done, I had thought of forming aluminum but as much as I dred the glass I think it would look better.

Thanks carl, no more gas stains

Getting the frame cleaned up, I'm lucky my Bro-inlaw has mucho remnant sand paper. Only made it to the engine plate.

 

Another 2 hours and I'm almost done sanding the frame, then theres 4 uprights around the back and helmet bars before we can paint it.

Christmas in FEB, Santa Carl sent me theses clamps that are perfect to mount the Moon tank!

 

Car is lookin good Rocky , get it all shiney for the world tour , BTW gonna look badass with the body , Tim

 

Keep on keepin on Roc!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been busy @ work and my Grandson's 1/4 Midget has been spread all over the shop This weekend looks promising!

 

Still keeping an eye on ya from Alabama. It's gonna look good!

 

I can't wait to see and hear it in person again! You driving past our tent at Eagle at 6am was the best alarm clock anyone could ask for!

 

Thanks friends! I haven't been able to get anything done, my wife has a siatic (SP) nerve problem and I came down with a cold

 

Hey Roc, hope everything starts going your way soon,
Any chance of us seeing your Grandsons 1/4 midget ?

 

That sucks! I know the feeling. I didn't even go to the Pomona Swap Meet this last Sunday because of cold like symptoms.

 

sorry about the health stuff,gets in the way everytime.looking forward to the progress on your toy.got any pics of the 1/4?

 

Thank You everyone, I'm very blessed and getting better, definately nothing to complain about. OK here's the "Phenom" My grandson, 5 yrs old practicing backing it in with the OLD 1/4 Midget. I put some water down so he could get a feel for being LOOSE......He loves it!


Here he is with the beginning of his Trophy collection.........Won the Heat and Main that day!

Here he is suited up........

Novice Training in a Friends car...............

Man I cannot believe we don't have any good photos of him in HIS car! Here he is on his Rip Rider

This is the best i can find of him in his car, coming off the scales!

 

Cool shots, looks like a future fuel altered driver, if he likes the sprinter now

 

Nice

Will have a fresh bottle of wax ready when ya come to lilttle river !

Rocky you're truly a bad influence! I love it.

 

Any kid who starts driving in a 1/4 midget, is gonna' turn out OK!

 

not a bad way to start out,at all

 

The need for speed is in that boy's DNA! Fantastic!

 

That picture says it all...Next step, clay track winged sprints!

 

HaHaHa, "POPS" is pretty proud, when we go anywhere in the RV he asks if were going to Eagle FIELD or Bakers FIELD

 

Way too cool Roc!!!!!!!!!!
