Technical What are you working on?

Ah, that's what we were talking about the other day. Sucks! That intake was dirty anyway. Time for a nice, clean one.

 

Thanks, I appreciate it, but I had another one sitting right next to the car. Everything is back on, new Vintage Speed carb bolted up waiting for a different inlet fitting. That car is going to Lloydfest III if I've got to trailer it.

 

Cool car.

You’ll have it up and running, plenty of time.

Checking how well a c10 matches up with a c2

 

I've been trying to learn some 3d CAD. My head hurts now so I'll be working on a beer or 2.

 

I see what you are trying to do...radical idea.

 

Spitballing stage for something crazy

 

My brother and I are trying to make a '33-34 Ford frame. Got a full length 6"x4" pipe for $250, split it in half to make two rails. Pic below where we cut out for the first bend and tonight we got it done! (also made a sheet metal pattern and tacked it under the rail to follow)

 

Yeah, I'm one of those kinda guys too...but not THAT crazy.
"39 Ford pickup, '36 pickup grille.


'40 Ford pickup, '37 Passenger nose.

 

That’s gonna be one funky looking C2 when you get done.

 

C2-10

 

I got that. Did you get why I put a winky face? Maybe this will help.

 

The guy that drew it years ago caled it Satans Kart
Don’t know how my school people would like that even though one of the schools in our county are the Blue Devils. So we’re going with c2-10 for now
Today was the first time we actually set the parts together to see how it lines up.
Not bad.
As soon as we wrap up a couple projects we’ll do some more mocking up.
The cab needs a serious section and narrowing

 

I wondered if you ended up with that front end.

 

For $300
That’s a no brainer.

 

Lowering stuff…polishing stuff…

 

That's some nice chrome you have there! I always liked the 51s over the 49-50s.

 

After ordering the new carb fitting, I walked out to the garage and there were two brand new ones sitting loose in a box of stuff. Organized, I gotta get organized.

 

hood is painted. Next is running boards and some small stuff. Then front and rear fenders.

 

Washed the three cars for a local show tomorrow!

 

I put "Bad Moon" Henry J into racing attire, bolted on the slicks, dropped the exhaust, flushed the antifreeze and put a new set of plugs in her.
Time to find out what the ol girl can do with all of it's new equipment, been a long 12 years since it and me have been down the track. Hopefully it goes straight and stops on this short shutdown track and we come back home in one piece.
