Ognib Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 As a gasser style car, is it going to get the tube axle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagedragfan Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 all ready has it Ray, the front end suspension is all new, its 1' 2" taller than stock LOL, he found the body in a fence row next to 2 cars that were burnt to the ground, thats why the right side looks the way it does, still a nice body though really for sitting in a fence row for years, he does beautiful restoration for a living, said he was tired of shiny and might leave it like it is and enjoy driving it, he has put the interior in it, will be a 440, 4 speed, tunnel ram with a slobbering cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Oh yeah, now that's nice. Its even a bit higher than I expected it to be. Love that stance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ognib Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 It's got the look, fer sure! Got any header build pics? No doubt your detail in 1:1 is as fine as what you do in scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagedragfan Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Brad, Ray, thanks for the interest, I've got the right side pretty well ready to weld up, these are 3" collectors, we have some 3 1/2" on the way, they just look to skinny I think, going to run the exhaust out of the side of the collector and cap them off with wing nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FASTBACK340 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Wow.... that is soooooo F'in cool. I know guys in the Mopar community that would have seizures seeing that car modified like that but I think it's awesome! You certainly know how to surround yourself with interesting projects!

You certainly know how to surround yourself with interesting projects! hi John, all of the Mopar guys can relax, we aren't hurting it at all doing this, bolt another K member under the front and weld the pieces back in I cut out for the headers and no one would ever know it was like this, it needs inner fenders on the front any way due to some rust, if you notice we didn't even cut the upper control arm shock mounts, WHICH WOULD HAVE MADE THIS A LOT EASIER!! LOL thanks for the interest John forgot to mention it is an old drag car, it was gutted inside with a terrible roll cage, and it had (Big Smoke) lettered in big letters down each door that you can see if you get the light just right Edited August 8, 2013 by vintagedragfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotrod28 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Great work on those headers Bill they look awsome . Only if we could have as many cars as we have in the hobby room and wild projects life would be great and about 6 Pro Mods of course keep up the great work mate.

FASTBACK340 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I know personally I build in the fall/winter because I can't enjoy the 1:1 car. Cut Bill some slack.... he'll be back. Just like Randy's wrecker. That will be back too. Right guys?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.R.C. Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 This is absolutely amazing! The chassis is absolutely impressive even if you used a styrene motor, and then when you throw in the motor that you have created............just beyond belief!! Cant wait to see it finished.
