    I am sure she would be a fast one, that thing must have what, 6 or 7 HP ?

    I've wanted to but I don't really know what I'm doing and my father isn't interested in customs.

    Way fast! I believe its somewhere around 40hp, but once you'd get up to speed you'd just have to stop and oil the rockers.
     
  6. I don't know what I am doing either. Don't worry. You'll do fine.

    It is not always about just speed. Broaden your perspective and you might find the variety interesting.

    Hmmm. Perhaps if your Dad knew you were interested in hot rods, and you were particularly interested in whatever THAT is, he'd be willing to help you dis-embody the car and build a speedster type thing out of it. Dont' cut up the chassis, just pull the dumpy old sedan body, hag it from the rafters, get some Rootlieb buckets and speedster fenders, and there you go, instant early gow-job.
