Projects how to get your competition to buy you some beer. The roadster buildoff!

Did a little tinkering last night.
First my headers came in the mail so I mounted them up to check clearances and they fit perfect. Couldn't be happier


Then I ran into a little problem with shifter location and the sub rail cross bar


So I went ahead and fixed that right up

And then trimmed the top of the door shells to fit the new roadster stanchions


More to come soon

Any progress is good! How longs is it till crunch time?

I like it, although the motor sits so low, is that in purpose, or are you leaving room for a 6-71 under the hood?

 

The intake and carbs will sit pretty tall in there. And roundup is on the 17th

So it's full steam a head, and no homework!

Looking great, thanks for the update!

 

Just found your cousin's thread then yours. Wish I had soon. Good luck to both of you, seems you can'take really lose regardless of the outcome.

 

Wasup?

R u there?

 

I thought you guys were biting off more than you could chew, but I was rooting for both of you to prove me wrong.
I can't wait to see how it turns out. Keep up the good work.

 

We tried our best and got so close. Pulled a couple all nighters on my cousins car but finally Friday morning, after being up working on the car for about 35 hours straight, decided to crack a couple cold ones. Call it a truce and head down to the round up in the old faithful Tudor. But keep watching! The buildoff is not over yet! New deadline set for the new bayou roundup down in Lafayette!!

 

The spirit of this competition was the great thing.
Enjoyed watching these threads.

 

Wtf? What Tudor F@ckers?
Send proofe, and a lot of pics!

 

Hey send me the date on the bayou round up I had to work so no lsru for me

Pinkynoegg'a tudor. He picked up a while back. We may have been spotted in it at the Austin speed shop party and at roundup

 

That is one nice rod, but one picture is just teasing!

And about the ASSs party, I'm more the 3000 miles away, one paycheck above half-ass broken and trying to cut down on my drinking.
So coming to there party's is a fare-out in the future project, and the first place I want to go, if I get the cash, is Colorado Hill climb. Or maybe TROG.
No hard feelings.
So it very doubtful that I get to see that car, at there party in the future [emoji4][emoji52][emoji17]

So pics would make me happy! [emoji41]

 

Got the steering all finished up. Went to put my pedals in and realized the k member wouldn't work. Went ahead and fabbed up a new one and redid the trans mount while I was at it.

 

Oh and found these sweet drag slicks and had my wheels powdercoated
