Let’s bring back some old paint styles! Always have loved low rider paint jobs, fantastic!
Afraid I was out of date: did some google searching. Found a 2011 post on some crazy site called “HAMB”. Do a search for “old school spider...
Wow, make me feel old. I called it spider webbing paint job & Cody agreed. Used to be a style of painting panels in a car. Am I that old? Or crazy
I love these hemi mopars: but just how many are there???? More the merrier!!! I know the NHRA hemi challenge has caused creation of some.
Should mention; years ago I played hoodlum & road straight pipe bike but I was young & stupid. Also lived in the country. Times have changed & our...

Ok “flatrod17” : need a build site on that little thing. There is now a place for OT rods

Do not know Curtis rods: can you explain bolt at pin end, hollow with hole in side also. Maybe lock pin in place but what else?
U going to have the removable hardtop? Do not think that was mentioned before
When back to again read painting detail. No one has mentioned “spider webbing” on some panels. That what we used to call it anyway. Love silver...

Went back reading Friday posts but not clear if all plugs oily & all head intake ports oily or only a few. Has to be problem fit between new...
Actually that normal for newer design slicks with low air pressure. As diameter changes ( larger ) gives more top speed.
Even the moon eyes on Willie’s fuel tank look scared
I see no rubber streaks in the street. Neighbors must hate you think your nuts. If I was there would come running to see what you doing. Will...
Get it to look like a perfect ZL1 head - let us know what you sell if for.
Tks brEad. Have actually followed that build. Did not recognize in picture
Have seen balancer slip off from timing mark. Feel more DIY builders should always check proper location timing marks. Nice job
This must be fake. How can anyone or any team build such a nice car & maintain such a seno garage? In background of pictures I see no dirt under...
Tell us more about speedster on lift behind your beautiful roadster. More pictures always well received
It is a good looking car - but what are the two clamps for on front axle? Would love more detail on front suspension
