Here's one to add to the pile. My clone of Pete Brock's LA Shelby Shop parts chaser from the 60's.Has the usual 302, toploader, 9 inch setup plus a lot of obscure old Falcon goodies.
Here is a pic of my 64 Chevy Panel at the Strangers BBQ. Consider the two pictures a before and after its got a 350/350 (soon to be swapped for a 700R4), 75 truck spindles (disc brakes and master cyl), Vintage Air, a 12 bolt rear end, shaved handles and smoothed front roll panel (which may get replaced cuz I like a nice hefty chrome bumper).
would a big bike (H-D for instance) fit in there? i'm thinkin' that one of those with a scoot in the back pullin' a small trailer (see T-man's recent post) would be a great way to travel. i used to put a 500cc BSA in the back of clarence but that was when i had the original seats in it. the right seat folded forward for access to the back from the front and that gave me an extra foot or so in length. none of the bikes i've had in the last 25 years or so would come anywhere near fitting just in length. then when i chopped the top i lost any chance of ever putting another bike in there.
