Hot Rods Pecks RPU project

I measured from a mark I put on frame rails back into cross member (front cross member center-line for radiator mounting slots) putting mark on top bottom mounting feet. Then after drilling undersized used a step drill to sneak up on correct size.
Put shell on after mounting radiator, aligning shell up then marking center of mount hole onto radiator side mounting tabs.

 

Nice build. Close to what I am envisioning for my 31 cc pickup.

 

I just love this build

 

Subtle way of saying it's going to be painted AVOCADO GREEN

 

Looks great. Are those banjo wheels splined or keyed?

 

Tapered & Keyed.

 

Sweet, they look pretty easy to decrease the diameter. Now I know

 

So after replacing coil ,resistor, cap, rotor, points and condenser , and clamping a lawn mower tank to frame, I hot wired and cranked it . I have videos but I can’t figure out how to post.

 

Post them on youtube first then it's easy to put them here.

 

Post it on youtube, then post the link on here

 

Lookin good! Just curious....how far back from the radiator mount holes to the centerline of the motor mounts? Thanks

 

thank you!

 

Oven cleaner, puddy knife , wire brush, and elbow grease, on a cold shitty day.

 

Gettin clean.

 

New timing chain, oil pump, water pump tomorrow. And possibly new paint. New clutch kit to follow.

 

Damn....you just cleaned the patina off of it.................

 

Yes sir, getting paint on everything.

 

Timing chain and oil pump changed , paint tomorrow.

 

Blasting accessories to get ready for paint.

 

Pay no attention to air cleaner, cool 56 Chevy air cleaner, is in the making.

 

Sh*t man ... that looks good.

 

All spiffed up.

 

What paint did you use on the valve covers?

 

I know a lot of these post are meaningless to some, but just showing that I do something everyday, to build a HOT ROD.

 

More degreaser on trans, and new 11” clutch kit. Will de using a lightened flywheel I machined like 10 years ago. I love the sound of a motor with a lightened flywheel. Can’t wait to get it all painted and back in chassis.
