Hot Rods You think I can make it to LSR??? ***Updates posted!

Focus man focus!! Just a little over 2 months to LSR No more major fab projects need at this time!!!! You can re-invent the car when you get back.....

 

Looks good with the chop!

 

Ease up Tooooast!! The gears are turning for the heater project that will happen in Sept!!

Thanks T Bird!!

 

I have a good heater core that may be small enough, I'll measure it if you like.
I also have two F-1 tailgates I use for ballast in my daily when the roads are bad. i might even consider delivery just to check your progress.
Coupe is looking good!

 

Go to NAPA ONLINE and view their catalog. You will find almost every size and style heater core and also fans.

 

Thanks Charley... I forgot about the tailgates!! I'll get em next week when I'm up there if you got time?

Thanks Aviator I'll check it out!!

 

Best of luck to you! I'm pulling for you to make it.

 

thanks Raid!!!

RAD!!!

Lookin' good Chad!!

 

Gettin the back window back together... It was having separation anxiety!!

 

Looking good, the stance is perfect.

 

That has the perfect attitude now! Good job!

 

Well one of the coolest guys on here just came to the rescue with this heater!! Sent it to me for free!! Thanks HRM2K!!!!

 

Yours will definitely be faster but this one is planning on raising it's class record by 20mph, 97mph to 117mph. Note what used to be the 4 exhaust ports are now intake ports and the former siamesed intake ports are exhaust. The new wood above the sun visor was by decree of the rules committee---no streamlining other than the allowed 2" chop. The old piece had been sanded off at a 45* angle. The dyno work is to tune in the Webers is done, note the 02 sensor, and it has been preassembled. Now back apart to tweak for final assembly.

 

Man that thing looks serious!!!

 

Back window done.... Just gotta trim the T beads up with the grinder a little.

 

looking sweet.....your back window is totally functional......nice !!

 

Thanks HRM2K,

I had to cannibalize a 26 back window to make that 27 window work. I had two window sections, one the belt line was toasted, and the other had swiss above the window area, so I use the good parts from both. Turned out nice though!

 

Another cool kat stepped up to help me out, Limey Kid contacted me and gave me some rear quarter windows from a T sedan... Now I've got more than enough to get my belt lines and doors patched... Thanks Stewart!!!!

 

LOOKIN' Good Man, that chop is just right!

Nick.

 

Nice job on your build, Chadillac!

I'd sure like to see a build thread on this one- specially the engine!

 

Drivers door, splitting the top and patching all the rust!! Uhhhg!!!

 

Wow Chad! It is really coming along nicely! Keep going strong and you will make it!!

 

Thanks Tom!! I'm having to replace all the pinch molding around the window on the driver door.... boooooo!

 

Loolin' good man!
