Projects Anything get done this weekend?

I finally built some headers...even though they are tacked together. Used 1 3/4 tubing and 35-36 Ford pickup driveline tubes that I got from Porkshop. They will also exit through the frame into glasspacks. Another lowbuck project.

 

The official hole through the frame.

 

Nice job, man. What were you running before?

 

These, they were for mockup.

 

Wow! Love the new headers!

 

painted the chopper I'm building for a guy. But since its a honda I won't post pics!
Great looking headers!

 

Hey Brewsir I had a 750 Honda chopper in 1978. Brings back memories.

 

Drove 800 miles round trip to pick up a 48 Plymouth coupe I've had stored at my folks house.

 

Nice job Royalshifter, those are real nice. I like the forthought of running them through the frame as opposed to under the frame.

 

Got my quick change rear set up and brackets welded on it

 

Damn nice job with the headers ! The frame really looks good too . I also like the other headers you had too , but have to keep the "cops" happy !
Keep up the great work and post some pics when done !

 

While my broke motor is waiting replacement, I final fit my steering . GM column to MII with 3 U joints and 1 support . Now to weld up the support and clearcoat the bare metal joints and DD shaft then put it back.

 

Got my**** kicked by some alternator bracketry. The 365 caddy does not accept accessories well. I got something crazy planned though, should really get some wtf's.

 

Very Nice Skip!

I got another rear hoop tacked on the digger. I'm pondering how and if I'm going to do the Dragmaster rear spine now.

 

Oh hell yeah.....blower seat riser is cool.

 

I moved a few steps closer to being redone. The race to get to "Burnout" is on!

 

Kick**** coupe, made my ne steering column, 28.00, for something they sell for 100. And they call u a hillbilly,,,

 

Got my frame painted ( semi gloss Rustoleum ) and some****embly........

 

Almost done with the wiring! Just a few stragglers under the dash that need cutting off. As soon as I get the levitation unit working properly, I can take the jackstands out from under it.

 

Awesome work on the Willys! If I could afford one that'd be on my list next. I think my dear wife would kill me if I did that after this digger.

 

just worked all week , i friggin hate cargil! , nice headers skip

 

I did not know you worked for Cargill.....I worked for them for 20 years.

 

ran airlines in the shop i just moved into.....still a slacker in the auto dept. Hopefully i'll get something done on the truck this week

 

Cargill in hanford? i've been in their boiler many times....nightmare!!!

 

drank beer with a HAMBer, and friends, and talked about what i was going to do..does that count?

 

Assembled a stroller, car seat, diaper disposal, and a bouncy thing. My wife is in nesting mode so the 52 was lonely this weekend.

 

Too cold and too damn much snow. I did blow $750.00 on a nice pair of Texas western diamond back rattlesnake cowboy boots though.....

 

Spent some time working on the A front spring that I reversed the eyes on a couple weeks ago. The spring back is sitting nicely right now but will need a little tweaking next weekend.

Also discovered that I need someone that can make a brass bushing for me to adapt my Posie transverse spring hangers to my Model A shackles. I am in the Chicago area, anyone know of anybody that does this??? I don't own a lathe or I would do it myself.

 

oh dam..i remeber buying my lizard tony lamas..teajeu (sp) lizard out of Texas that was over 11 years ago..probably $550 if i remember right

 

Got some painting done Friday evening, White sealer, Viper red base, and a couple coats of clear. Will let this sit for a few days and then get it prepped for spraying the outsides.











Took a door out into the sunlight Saturday to see the red pop.
