    Glad you guys like.....just trying to show off a little.

    I only had a couple pieces of a v-drive and had to build one to look the part on this oldschool Caddy build


    As much as I love a SBC and I build lots of them.....I hate when people say"I would run vintage powerplants but I want the realibity of a Chevy".

    ********...Any engine build is only as good as whats put in it.

    And you can make them look the part/era even with new pieces made on a Haas

    I'll put up a video in the next day or to..Ive got a ton of stuff to get done before the wk end

    Thanks again for the interest...... and maybe I should add v-drives to our std product line?

    Tony

    Yup looks nice! Why not show off?:D

    And I agree 100%. Reliability is a product of the builder.

    I would definately add it to your product line. Good stuff but hard to find, ESPECIALLY for a Caddy.

    That Caddy is absolutely perfect.
     
  20. I met Tony and hid Dad at the Hot Rod & Restoration trade show in Indy a couple of years ago. Everything they had on display was awesome. So I'm not surprised that this little bit of old school hot rod motor building looks "so right." High tolerance traditional.

    Sounds and looks great! How about a little insight as to the build components. Any other special homemade goodies in there? Sure revs up nice and smooth.
