    Looks great , don`t change a thing . A fresh coat of hotrod black primer and you are good to go. Your car has always reminded me of my 1st drag race car, sure do miss it ,too. Gasserman :)

    I like it! Kinda two lane black-top-ish. Is any of that 'glass? If so who made it?

    Looking good.... :D

    Now we just need to talk you into installing a 460ish cube motor and some white ceramic coated fenderwell headers, cable drive tach etc.
     
  4. Looks great!,,,I have always liked the bubble hoods,,,,,and a set of ladder bars will add a lot to the gasser look! HRP

    I've always loved that car. I think it's even better minus the flames and the headlight scoops scream business...

    Looks good w/o the flames.
    The hood and air scoops are a nice touch.
    All you need are some period correct race/sponsor decals.
    Bad ass car I love It , Spanky
     
  10. How far are you taking it?

    Along the same lines...

  11. You gave it the attitude it needed. Re the small block, will that be SBC or SBF? There is a guy over this way (I'm still in Tenny) that has a hot 406 cu in SBC for sale.

  12. I like it! I really like the direction it's going, but I, for one, would really hate to see a sbc in that car. I found a Lincoln here with an injected 302 for $600. That, in my mind at least would be much cooler than the way-overdone sbc. Just my $.02.:)

  14. NICE!!!

    I'm pretty happy with my 351W in my '56 Fairlane. It sounds healthier than a 302(because it IS), but it's still a SBF...

    Dude...I remember when that car was all ...normal lookin. Sat like mosty cars sit..looked like most cars look.

    Waaaay better now..the headlight/fresh air thing is killer. Now, you need some meat in the back. A nice radius and just a little hangin out. kinda like this...

    -Abone.
     
  19. Looks great Tingly'....I am really glad you took that pinging hammer and hammered out that metal hood into a fantastic looking all metal finished bubble without all that damned body filler stuff!
    Boy -that woulda been a job ,huh?:D
     
  20. Great work Tingler! I'm really digging what your doing.

    I was gonna suggest radiused rear wheel wells and am glad your wanting to do that and maybe jacking up the rear some for some monster slicks would look bad ass as well.your rides starting to really look the Gasser part Tingler,i dig the shit outta the Thunderbolt scoop :) Oh Tingler,check this auction out on eBay,just imagine it primer black and this one is how yours will look when its done.
    ebay item # 280013520206
     
  27. Tingler, are you gonna get to go to the drags? I'm trying to talk my buddy into bringin' his Fairlane. It's set up pretty much like you are wanting to do. If not I'll try to get some good pics for you later.

    This is about the only pics I have right now.

    OK Whats the deal with the inner headlights. Take em out ,paint flat black and add some kind of screen ?? Me thinks if you go the T Bolt intake tubes, you have to move the battery? I like the look
