DeathsDoorStep Update...Detroit coming fast

Any ideas on how we can do this? I was going over tonight to video it with a cam corder but dont know how to get this on the hamb....any ideas?

 

always look for these updates, excellent!

 

Way to go LM ! I want to see it at Thompson.. here's a HAMBer's alternator mount .....

Thats what I'm talking about. Never see enough hotrod videos.

 

This has to be the most kick *** car i've seen in my 17 years on this planet! the idea of running the alterator right off the dampener is a cool one but i don't think it would work on here thou, dosen't look like there is enough space. maybe run on of those real mini ones mounted next to/ underneith the frame rail?

 

P.S. don't ever even think about chopping that muther****er

 

That ****er is awesome. Can't wait to see it at Detroit.

try a set of wood lights. Pretty spendy for originals but it looks like you could handle the job of working on the Mexican repops.

 

You need someone to host it for you. If you take a video, make a request on the main board. SOMEONE will host it for you!

 

Love this hot rod, I keep it as my backdrop at work and keep updating it as new photos are posted.

 

LM, your car rules! Don't know if this was brought up before but....
Have you considered running a bare A shell? Heck, you could even attach tiny MC headlights with neat chrome buckets down low on either side off real short stanchions. I think that would still carry the vibe pretty well.

 

These Woods Lites are what I picture on this car, even though they are 'Art Deco' they offer a sinister glance. I can see them mounted just off the frame on either side of the moon tank.

 

Here's the GM mini alternator on my Anglia, not much space here either..

Wow, those are evil looking lights, I have never seen or heard of these before, any one know who repops them and how much, would to atleast look into them, may end up being too pricey but ya never know...Thanks Littleman

 

Looks real nice, any idea of what year car they had those in? I also liked the other pic in the thread that has the alternator in front of the crank.....Littleman

 

A couple of more views..

Ran into trouble with my old vintage chrome U-FAB intake, currator and I noticed that the copper was flaking on the inside, way back when they had bee triple chromed and the entire inside was coated in copper..We tried to sand blast it but you could not really get it all...And I thought about it and decided not to run it until it could be stripped by a chromer and replated, which probably will not happen too soon.......Plan B I am going with the aluminum Drag Star intake..........................You can try to plan as far ahead as possible, but something will always get you.................Littleman

 

they remind me of aliens........................very neat.but look real pricey.Littleman

 

i CAN NOT wait to see this in detroit. i gotta hear it run. Hopefully ill be in cobo when you get there to see you pull it in and make some racket.
go dave go.

 

all ******** aside....

if you end up with headlights on that car so you can drive it...

PLEASE make them quick disconnect style...
PLEASE dont use something wierd... a good sixtys style aftermarket chrome headlight would suffice.

headlights dont belong on that car IMHO.

ps those woodlites are "neat" but they look dumb on anything other than a gas-light era car.

 

Littleman. I can see the braded hose for water into the block, but what about water out?

 

I took my digital camera and took a small file movie with it. The quality is not real good but you should get the idea. Just imagine it LOUDER! I emailed it to Evel....stay posted.

 

Water out..............................out back of each head.........thought it would be too busy with all four lines up front..............Littleman

 

exactly!

 

I agree 100%

 

Bad ****in' ***!!

One request...More Pics
