Oh Jim, you don't have to cover up the truth of it anymore. I bought the car as my top secret new project. I was thinking if I can't pull it off, that it would make a LOVELY bit of yard art. Plan9's gonna TRY and help me get her together. Pray for us. **x Brandy
Oh well Jim since yer droppin off my flatback.......prolly pretty good! Pm me when you'll be abouts! **x Brandy
Take it easy on the ol guy, Brandy.....since he p***ed his 90th birthday, he's gettin a little fragile. Might wanna keep the jumper cables handy, just in case. I jest, of course. I think Jim could still kick my ***. Here's your new body, Brandy. Plan 9 says you two are gonna make a racer out of it....do the flatheads come with it? Tuck, I can't believe you sold the motor out of the HEX complete with multiple carburation!! I would have bought the intake and carbs for my lakes modified project and yes, the plated rear axle is slated for the modified. Now, I gotta find a plated, I-beam front axle for it.
That's what my original plans were for it when I owned it. Except I was gonna use a Y-block. But that engine got put in my 29 PU so the stock car idea died. I believe Stressed was thinkin racer too. Whatever you do with it Brandy, keep us posted. Good luck.....you'll need lots of it with that thing.
Hey Rocky, Looks like you had a good time. I am gonna be in town from the 22nd to the 26th of July and thought of giving you a call. Is there anything going on that weekend in Omaha. I think I'm gonna have to hit the County Fair and the Demo Derby on Saturday night in Mo. Valley, but the rest of the time is free. Josh
Ahhh... yes! Road trippin' to KC with a trunk full o' rear. Deja vu all over again. I look forward to seeing you guys again at the Drags. Great read, Rocky. Hotrod looks sweet, Kevin! Bil
glad to here that the trip went well. I wish I could have made that trip with ya. I also wish I could have gotten that banjo rear. Good luck on that modified. jeff
Yeah, that sedan body would be tough to rod I think, but a racer on the other hand, yeah. I was going to cut the hell out of it and stick it on an old front engine dragster ch***is that my dad has. Blown FE power, etc., etc. But, I am so hyperactive I can never stick to anything. Nice thing about it is its not too nice to cut up, but not too trashed to keep. Does that make sense, I don't know, hehe. Have fun with it. I am happy with our trade.
