Hot Rods The Race To Bonneville 2012

Driving from Paso to B-Ville in a bucket? bring LOTS of sun tan lotion.

 

yeah thats for sure boeing bomber! we have made the trip every year since 06 in Pat kings Big Yellow GMC so this year aught to be a lot of fun cruising a group of rods... Brandon s. and I are the only ones without a roof so far, so yeah lots of sun screen and stops in the shade are a must!

 

pierson called me today, is in too.

 

Well it took A little Longer to get my Radius rods All Welded but now its all bolted together and sitting on some wheels! I welded in my Front Spring Mount Crossmember and the gussets for the radius rod mounts as well, tomorrow im going to try and get alot of the fibergl*** work on the body done and get the floor mounted to really get a look at it sitting right.

 

not that the Bucket is rolling i figured i should get the body mounted right and permanently, so i stripped out all the old rotten wood supports and floor, and cut out a nice new floor that fits amazing and channelled the body completely over the frame so now ot sits really awesome low.

 

well its been a while since i have posted on here, its been a little slow going cause of some financial hard times and some people losing motivation, but i have finally made some progress again, hopefully to get more and more done this week..

 

Looks good and you're doing amazing progress! Hope to see you there! ( if I can get that #%¥£ room in order )

 

Keep it up Bro, your making good progress.

 

Don't lose motivation. Speed Week is right around the corner.

 

Glad your still at it! Been impatiently waiting for more updates! I've built and been improving my Hudson to drive to the salt and run it there, hopefully try for the 130mph club and this thread has me checking in everyday for more updates! MORE! MORE! MORE!!! hhr

 

thanks for the support, im going out to work on it some more today, so hopefully more pics tonight
