    I get your Voodoo to Voodoo ****ogy but nah, a modern mill in a vintage car doesn't float my boat at all. That '64 425 hp Super Wildcat Nailhead is perfect in that car....and in a 1700 lb. tub, will more than pucker the ol' ********.

    I haven't updated my build thread in quite some time.

    Customs - From Clown Car to 1927 T Touring Custom Rod | Page 2 | The H.A.M.B

    I'm in the design and modeling stages of scratch building the ch***is.
    I will have all of the steel cut on a water jet and fixture and weld up the ch***is as one unit.
    The rails will be 3" wide and 6" tall, in an attempt to mimic the 1932 Ford rail side profile.
    No Fenders, Boards, etc... It will be highboy style. Chuck V's Voodoo Doll was an inspiration
    for my build. "Semi" traditional with a 302 SBF, C4 Ford A/T and 9" Ford rear axle.
    Front Cross Spring with a dropped axle up front and Coil Overs in the rear (I know, the not traditional
    part of the build). I have a set of 1936 Spoked Wheels. I will run a chopped original Windshield with a
    stock Radiator and Radiator Surround.
    That body that you have is Cherry. Stock is boring ! Make her a nice Hotrod.

    VR&C.

    Well with a lot of thought and possibly found a roadster body I cannot cut this perfect body up so the majority wins.
    Up for grabs if someone needs a perfect Tub body.

    I’m just glad that there’s a whole continent in between us… SWMBO would kill me if I started another project

    your little modified was inspiration for my build

    I saved the good parts from it when I found a real nice roadster body to put on 32 rails

    You'd absolutely have to woodgrain paint the ch***is on this.
