The latest and greatest 815 project. all shoebox ford owners will need to sell there cars because this will be the baddest out there hahaha. We started on the "joeyB" build a few years ago when I chopped it a couple inches It's an old thread cobra kai stuff. It came back to the syc il for some floor work, channel, rust repair, section and some other top secret mods. We started by getting the old body up to the stripper to make life a lil simpler. While there I made a floor joe is a tall dude but will be comfortable in the chopped channeled and sectioned body bag when we get done. check out the pics so far. later drew suicideaxle hot rods
Chopped and sectioned shoeboxes are still my all time favorite. The bare metal is so damned pretty too. Love the radirs. Maybe it's the ecstasy talking but it looks dreamy already. Wanna trade heads up for a Gremlin X and the rest of my medication??
You do great metal work, but I'm having a hard time with the reading part. Whay do you mean by "thread cobra kai stuff" "syc il"? How did it get the name "Body Bag"?
Baddest shoebox in the 815? Maybe I have to bring mine up then. Shits bad. No really, its rusty and dented, no motor. Its really really bad. Looks great man, love the Radirs and wide whites. Ive always wanted 2 see that on a Ford.
HAHA "PUT HIM IN A BODY BAG!" my favorite line from karate kid. question....the rear cross member..is it gone? looks like it.
nice fab work! its giving me a boner just lookin at it! co-incidentally,couple years ago i had a shitbox 85 honda civic hatchback i bought for a hundred bucks when i had a suspended licence as a throw away car(in case of impound) that was called the body bag! had an old o'neill bodybag sticker from the 80's on the back window
looking good. but mine will be the sweetheart shoebox of the 815. remember bags are for fags bro. keep it real in the 815
The boy's in the hood is always hard, come talking your trash we'll pull your guard. No Nothin' in life but to be-ligit. Don't quote me boy cuz' I ain't said shit........................ later drew suicideaxle hot rods[/QUOTE]
the cobra kai was the name of the post on the top chop I don't know how to put a link up to that. body bag is like a toe tag it's strange and sick and when the section is done we will zip joe in there like a body bag. It will represent the 81fizzle till it goes home to joe. right now I am just making it stock so I can hack it up the fun will begin soon. drew this ones for my mil town cracka's Got my crew in effect, I bought em new Jags, So much cash, gotta keep it in Hefty bags. All I think about is keys and Gs Imagine that, me workin at Mickey D's (ha ha ha ha).
Looks bad-ass. Love the tire/wheels, and the overall shape of the car. But I have to question why the new dashboard? Those shoeboxes have some of the best looking factory dashes ever put in a car, and it seems like alot of work for little reward to me. What are the plans for the dash when completed? Guage cluster, glove box, etc?
i heard you were sectioning a shoebox, some one told me when they came over and seen the one that im sectioning, i like how you sectioned the deck lid, thats exactly what im gonna do. have fun jeff
