    This is the first time I have been able to roll it back to see a full side view.I love the engine set back.
    Body finally sitting on the frame with no blocks, can finally roll it and nothing falls off......Still a way's to go, need to finish floor structure,mount fuel tank, which finally found its final place, finish floor structure, firewall.......Do have the brake pedal and master mounted, waiting for my gas pedal to arrive in the mail..And will mount steering box and make the steering column........Littleman

    I'm always going to look at that frame for inspiration, gorgeous work.
    How is the leg room with the engine set back that far?

    You have alot of talent and must have a very sick mind to dream that thing up. Thats the best build on the HAMB. And if that wasnt enuff that thing should be crazy fast.

    Don't chop it, forget the legroom. That thing is sweet as is. I sure hope to see somewhere this summer, maybe the Showdown? Someone should fotoshop about 10 gallons of smoke coming off those slicks!

    I see your mounting the radiator. Good choice :D . So are you gonna run a shell in the front? or just leave it open.

    Don't cut the top. You've got the eye for it and have nailed a look. How are you gonna get air thru the radiator? Fans, no lid...

    That's a ****** shield. Standard equipment in a modern drag car in case the ****** goes BOOM! I've seen it happen and it isn't pretty. Holes through the roof!

    I can't wait till you finish that ugly thing, so we won't have to see so many pics of it anymore... Just kidding. I actually hope there is a progress pic of your ride everytime I log on. It looks great. It is pure inspiration for everybody building a car. Please keep sending the pics.
     
  25. It took 12 gallons to make it look right.:D And it goes pretty good with no plug wires.

    That's looking great!

    What is the plan for the trunk? It looks like the fuel tank sticks
    up above the panel.

    Did you know someone is trying to drive a Henry J through the wall
    above your Lathe? :eek:
