    Jeff, that sounds better than expected. Good job my man, you are about 5 years ahead of me. Post your cam specs if you don't mind.

    Here is the cam card, Root. It is a bit bumpier than expected, but that is good with me.

    Sounds and looks great! Both videos worked for me, if the video is short you tube just does a link instead of embedding a player in a post but it will play either way.

    It looks black in pictures but is actually dark gray in real life. My colorblind ass is kind of limited on colors I can tolerate. A nice bright red or yellow just ain't me.

    Hey, the man is a recovering Black addict. Back off, he's making progress!:D
     
  22. TWO THINGS....
    I had to relocate my mirrors to the doors, cause I couldn't see out the right side one. They were on the cowl.
    I also changed out my headlights, cause the tires hit them when i turned. I put some smaller, old driving(fog) lights on instead.

    One of the new carbs leaks from the welsh plug, but ither than that, they work great.

    cad3410-12-24-1.JPG

    Bunch of laps around the neighborhood and a few illegal trips to the quickiemart. All good so far.

    I love it!
    Wonder if you can make up a 'shrunk' version of a tape measure to prove those headlights are high enough! :D
     
  27. Had a buddy do exactly that to show the height of his windshield after the chop was tall enough to be legal. Took a photo of him holding the altered tape up to the windshield...the car passed "inspection"...it helped that he knew the inspector.

    That rig looks just right... the quintessential Hot Rod!
    Caps go on or off in a few short minutes so you can run it both ways as the mood strikes.
    Now go wear it out!
