    Love that car ^^^
    Simple, clean, well balanced and proportioned and not some contorted mutant "thing"

    Anyone else hate that Vegas Rat Rod abomination ??

    I spun mine around in my tiny garage, because I needed to see it from another angle. I hate to even post a photo of it, because it's still lacking it's fenders (they're getting so close). Use your imagination.....Rear suspension coming down 1 more inch, rear fenders bobbed 6", tail light mounts shortened 2", front fenders cut, sliced, diced, and trimmed, exhaust done on drivers side (has cut-outs)......I'll be mailing in my BTT50's registration soon!

    Speedway "Fat Fender" header. They interfere with the stock model A rear hood latch, and hood too ofcourse. They also penetrate through the fenders. I have plans for my hood, and I already solved the fender issue.:cool:

    Very cool. Guess I will be looking for a set to modify for my gasser. I like how you are running thru the fender very sanitary.

    It certainly sounds like a gasser should sound! I can't wait to see it with fenders on it, I think it looks great!

    Don't gassers usually do burnouts? :rolleyes:

    I love the way you built this car. Very 1965. The only thing I'd change is the slushbox. She needs 3 pedals :)

  30. I believe this car used to whip my ass my all the time at dover drag strip .The guy who owned it told me how drag racing works . I was 19 years old ,every penny I had was invested in my car. I beat his car one Sunday. He came over to me and told me don't worry he would beat me next week . I asked why he told because he had more money than me. I only beat him 2 times in 3years.
