wow! Jesse did an outstanding job on this car!
haha! thanks TagMan! I wish I had taken some pics but the whole week leading up to this event was a blur, I forgot to bring my camera. I stole...
[img] some idiot showed up with this thing, otherwise it was a good time. Best show/event in the area.
the front suspension? the adjustment is only made on the upper control arm, by lengthening or shortening the rod ends. It works decent, but still...
Thanks, Yeah they aren't too bad to build, this was my first one. Next time, I might make a few adjustments, few things different for strength....
Thank you harleynut45, I really appreciate it, I still have a lot to learn. Mr. Dickies, as for the front end, its the same as a mustang II...
the front suspension is basic mustang II, but designed similar to what Art Morrision sells. I just built it myself to save money. [img] [img]...
Thanks lgh1157, I really appreciate that. I'm stoked to see your galaxie come together. No real updates yet. I've been building a shovelhead...
damn that is amazing.
Heavy.
Yes!
never seen that one done, but have considered doing a tri-5 roof on my 53. thought that one might look pretty cool.

yeah this is unreal.
[img] shit like this is most unnecessary and just for showing off how broke you can make yourself.

easily the best show of the year. I am still amazed at how many people showed up. Thank you Jesse for putting on such a killer event.
[IMG] I made this one for the Hardcore Happening this year.
i really like the idea of the roadster length doors with the sport coupe quarters. are you planning to do anything to change the upper beadline...
dude chopped a car in a mansion. he probably uses the premier issues of dice and garage magazine for toilet paper.
I will be there and hopefully I can catch up with the dudes I didn't get to talk to at syracuse. always a good time in lynwood!
