Projects Toymaker's Twin Engine Dragster Build

Thanks Dean, I can't wait for the body to sit over the tires myself

Thank You Jalopy, More on the build right after we get through the Sweepstakes!

Thanks buddy, The car will be a "Transformer" able to run with or without the "T" body. I'm afraid the Glass and Resin will be "all over Rocky's Hands"!

Thank You, I'm looking forward to the "T" body on it myself. I think the way the tires will be under the body giving it the appearence of being Loooow will be so COOOL

 

oh for sure! i cant wait to see what it looks like with the body it will look sweet either way but i wouldnt be ashamed of how it looks right now

 

16 votes and 16 plugs 50k here we come

 

I will miss watching the Tires SMOKE

 

Thank you Cowboy!

 

welcome rocky what the link to the first fire up or any vids of the front of the motors as it starts?

 

Just a couple oldies to keep your mental image fresh.
'Course they're each in dire need of another engine but we can forgive'em that small omission.

 

Those are some sweet pics. +1 vote and a bump.

 

That's what I'm talking about! Modified Roadsters are beautiful. Can't wait to see you smokin' the hides side by side with Stormy!

 

nother day nother plug for the twin.

 

Here is the first of the engines starting on the ground.........

Thank You Nexx'!

HaHaHa, how about a couple strokers! Thank You!

Thank You Gary!

Thanx everyone, I know the contest seems to be dragging on and I want everyone to know your efforts are appreciated! Thank You again, Rocky

 

Punched another one in today.

 

17 for u

 

Thanks poofus!

Thank You Cowboy!
A little bit of car update..........I pulled the trigger on my new clutch from 10,000 RPM. Ron Hammel is a super guy, very helpfull, interested in my build, and the fact he toured with the Howards Twin Bear in the early 60's is really cool!

 

just remember, no matter how much you spent on the clutch, its still wayyyyy cheaper than most other dragsters. let alone twin engine dragsters. and wayyyyyyyy coooler than all of em combined i hope i can see u this summer if you get the sweepstakes. im from south dakota but ill be headed south on a harvesting crew so maybe i can somehow make it to a show if it all happens

 

And way better than sawing the car in half with a poor quality clutch. Glad you pulled the trigger Rocky! Very cool that the guy building the clutch was associated with the Twin Bear!!

 

18 and one more closer to 50k

 

One vote a day since the start.

 

VOTED!!! Chris

 

Nice looking piece Roc........
Another vote and views 4 u

 

never get tired of viewing that video roc,
nother vote for the twin.

 

I lost count but who cares as long as the Evil Twin wins! How much pressure is that badass clutch and/or is it adjustable?

 

Thank You 383'! I thought about ways to make a 2 disce but that would be foolish. I do care about myself and even more about people who come to see the car run. $1500 well spent IMO. Rocky

Thanks Dean! I agree on the clutch, just a shame to hide it under the bellhousing

Thank You cowboy!

Thank You Poofus!

Thank You Chris! Can't wait to come up to Washington, been a while.........WOW 30yrs since I pulled the Edelbrock trailer around the West Coast!

Thank You Carl! Glad your home safe and sound!

Thank You Mark!

I didn't ask Ron, but I'd guess using a Diaphram spring about 2000-2500lbs static with no adjustment. Thank you Eli!

 

My two for Friday are in!

 

Another vote.

 

one more time
