Art & Inspiration I need more opinions

Ok,as no surprise here,Id like some opinions,I'm trying to make my roadster alittle more 60's maybe with a little dragrace inspiration.I have 2 puctures,one with vd spreader bar,the other with the moon tank back on,I ran the tank before,but now I am running the halibrand style wheels and the header turnouts,what do u all think?

 

John you know how I feel about the moon tank. Put it on

 

I didnt know u liked it.

 

I have an opinion, the Australian government should lift regulation on modified cars to a tolerable level without sacrificing safety.

Chev motors should never be seen in Fords.

Hemis and Nailheads can go acceptably in ANY car.

Soma McCahill is a super babe.

Oh, and with the tank.


Doc.

 

Go with the Moon tank.

 

I like the tank.

 

With!!!

 

Either way. There were roadsters in the 60's with Moon tanks, most were used on the drag cars for fuel as intended. There were always a few that just liked the look. My only real issue is the obstruction of air flow during traffic in the summer, but you probably don't encounter the heat we do here in Oklahoma.

 

Love the tank , love the wheels and turnouts too .

 

I've got to say that the pic with the tank looks pretty sweet.

 

Thanks guys,Im pretty happy and surprised with the responces,I wasnt sure if moon tanks were cool with real hotrodders.

 

Well I ran the moon tank for 3 and ahalf summers before and no problems.

 

Put the tank ON

 

This is how it looked the last time the tank was on it in june of 2008.

 

John ..How come the name change from HIBOYROADSTERBOY to hotrodroadster32 ?? . Are you going into the federal witness protection program

 

I think the Moon tank will look better with the Halibrands than it did with the baby moons...put it back on...oh, and the turn-outs are *****in too...

 

x2 on the Halibrands.

 

Moon tanks were mounted on drag cars in the early 60's, but almost never seen on street cars. Nowadays it seems like every poser want's to play like they'er racers with Moon tanks, number's on the door and an incorrect cl*** painted somewhere on the car.

 

Rich you hit the "Nail on the Head" with that one ..Bravo for RV !!!

 

Like the look, but don't think it belongs on that style car. btw beautiful car!

 

Rich, I totally agree, it goes hand in hand with running Moon discs on your '68 Ford pickup that the body is rotting off of and has never seen any sort of racing...but I will admit that on some vehicles those little racing touches look great...personally, I'd either hook it up as a puke tank or an actual reserve fuel tank...yeah, it's still a poser look, but the car is nice enough to pull off the look...

 

I can tell you,but Id have to kill you.

 

Ok I'm a Poser,I dont care,I'm only 29 I wasnt around in the 60's,and I always like 60's dragracing,plus I'm having fun.

 

I kinda dig the tank stuck on there. I would definately make it useable though. Maybe something simple like a coolant overflow, whiskey flask or something.

 

Loose the tank..

 

If you're a poser, than I am too. So from one poser to another "Man that looks hella cool with that tank on there bro!" Dig the tank. Run it.
-GothY-

 

You need to ditch the tank, and the halibrands too.. you can send them to me, and I'll make sure they are disposed of properly

Ya gotta post pic's when you get it back on there.

 

Ok I put the tank on today,and the new wheels and tires,I love the wheels and tires,but the tank is a no go,It was fine when it was on the car the first time,5 years ago,but being that the car is much nicer looking now,the tank messes it up,so thanks for all the comments and opinions guys,as always I appreciate it.
