Hot Rods RACE CARS, Rock'n'Roll, Hot Dogs and ASS...

First off, for you austins I am playing a one man band show this Thursday at the Scoot Inn.... I am sure to ****... I haven't done a one man band show in a long time, but it will be fun anyway....... I will take all requests. haha


So I got this coupe..... I'm pretty excited. I am going to build a race car.

I've been collecting parts for years.... its time.

Race cars are cool.

I traded my truck for it..... its ****s, but its in good place. I know.... Wait till you see what i have planned for a tow rig......

Now I just need to make some time.....

 

Lil Bobby BLEED Rock'n'Roll Revue Live THIS THURSDAY Scoot INN.......

Please come if you can... It will be low key and fun..... I think?

 

thats goner be a *****in race car.
cant wait to see the tow rig......

 

But wheres the ***?

 

Well that didn't totally ****. Look at the bright side,it's gonna be a kool car!

 

Nothing better than ,LITTLE BOBBY BLEED AND HIS LONLEY TEAR DROP...............

 

The truck was cool for sure, but this is the **** I crave! Can't wait to see where it goes.

 

Hot Dog painted this T Bird for us....... he is amazing! I am super excited that he is coming to visit the shop in a couple weeks.... He will be around for a few days and wants to stripe and paint some cars..... if you need some stripes or even some flames.... contact the shop, this will be a really good opportunity as he has never been to Austin Before......

sneek peek....

 

This is gonna be a fun one to watch! Inquiring minds need details

 

So heres a quick peek at the zephyr frame I'm building at the shop..... I'm super proud of it so far....

lots to go, but its off to a good start.

 

more......









sorry for the ****ty pics............

 

Looking quite nice so far! You going to keep updating the progress on this thread?

~JoJo~

 

If I had talent like that falling out of my ***, I'd never flush
Looks killer man. Good welding skillz trump good photoghraphy skillz.

 

*****in Bob! Looks like some fun projects.

 

the race car is nice, the frame cool, but the ****in one man band is most impressive!

 

Can't wait to see the 5w Bobby. I am piecing one together and pretty much have a lot of the body. I'm building a mid 50's drag car with a 331 and full house banjo. Think Satan Coupe/Devil Deuce meet Stone Woods & Cook color blue. Anyways, I am stoked to see you get this going as I know it'll be rad.

What frame are you using under your 5w it's not Stephen's is it? Tell us you plans....engine, trans, rear etc.

 

thanks....... It will be a full comp coupe period 1959. no aftermarket parts, everything vintage or hand made..... full race 55 Olds engine, Gotha Equiped...... lasalle trans, culver city quickchange..... magnesium wheels..... etc......

Center seat, flip up body....... filled grill, with Franco's best....

Kind of a pissed off, coupe version of the Orange Crate.


It will be a long project, its not going to be done any time soon, but its been keeping me up at night for years already.......


this is going on the whitey frame..... can't wait!

 

That thing is going to be wicked, powered by an Olds makes it that much better. Like others have stated, post plenty of pics along the way!

 

Congrats on the 5W, Bob. Your frames have come a long way in style since the "Bleed Sweep's" inception, huh?

 

God I can't wait to see the flip top body and the center seat is just ****ing awesome. Love the plans and while you're building the next Orange Crate, I'll build the next Satan Coupe. Let's finish by the 2015 Roundup and scare the city!

I was going to run a Packard ****** since Littlewing was selling one for $125. I thought that was a good deal. The LaSalles are a bit out of my league but rad none the less.

Stephen has gone mad!!! He's went from one end of the spectrum to the other haha!!! I have done the same I think. Well I am sure the new owner of that frame is going to love every tiny detail and bit of sweat you put in it.

Keep us posted.

 

Is that green engine in back of the 3w the Olds motor you're using?

 

that is a 50 olds engine..... The engine I am using is a 55 that was built for a drag 1n the late 50's and never run..... it is a NOS full race olds... JE pistons, isky cam, solid lifters mcgurk adjustible rockers etc etc..... its pretty neat...

 

What time-ish do you go on at the Scoot Inn?

 

I cant wait! I'm subscribed to this one!

 

It's not the one Johnny Cola had right? That one was locked up but had all the cool period parts on it. You guys must have all the right connections. Always coming up with the real deal cool ****.


Can we get Norwell to so a concept drawing for your coupe with all your ideas? I might do that for Christmas to tied me over while I am collecting and taking my time. I would love to see him whip your car up so we can see it.

 

Race Cars Rule.....................It ain't a HotRod unless it's Fast...........Littleman......Bob, your work looks great !

 

cant wait to see this one done-i am stoked!!!

 

Why waste your time with that rusty old junk? I hear they are doing big things with FWD imports...

 

Thanks everyone...... I miss the Little Man..... I want to race Deaths Doorstep..... I guess I should learn to drag race first haha I've never even raced on a track before.....

Big learning curve for me!

Yeah I'm proud of some of the work I've been doing.... Its crazy that the further I get into this stuff the more I need to learn. You work really hard to get to a certain level.... and then when you get there, its time to start all over to get to the next one.

I'm in a constant state of realising I don't know ****.


Building Hot Rods is hard.



I've had the Olds motor for a bunch of years...... it is NOS..... I had new rings and bearings put in so its ready to go..... the green one was rebuilt too, but then some mice got in it....


LIL Bobby Bleed tomorrow night! haha

 

Good stuff here. That frame is a beaut'! You have really stepped your game up.
