    Yea I'd like to keep jamming on her but no time and money to really make big changes. Cars being stored at my buddies an hour away so even harder to work on at the moment

    Looking at your frame looks like you had to have the gambino notch in order to complete lay the frame. I'm about to notch mine but I haven't taken any measurements on the axle or frame but was hoping to get away from the large notch... looks like I might be doing a big'un after all! Dig your frame!

    Hahaha this is a full Gambino frame. Alex and his guys plus myself built it at his shop. Complete tail dragger rear and hub to hub Fatman m2 up front with a new trans xmember which lowers the frame an inch or 2. Thanks again for the complements !! I remember buying a rod & Kulture when I lived in AZ and thinking what a bad *** shop in my home town San Jose ! Then a yr later work along with Alex ! Haha

    VERY COOL!!!

    Did you utilize the whole notch or did you have to trim it a bit? I recognize a gambino frame when I see it!! haha

    Good call on the juice! I would love to have an airplane set up. I run an old Fenner gate pump on the back of my 53. It's riding on 98-05 Cavalier rear coils and rides like a Cadillac. [​IMG]Hosted on Fotki

    Duuuude , you still got a bad *** set up ! You have any pics of your rear set up ? I was originally gonna try running one fenner pump set up but decided to go aircraft just cause I found it a lil more challenging.

    She's still sporting her stock drivetrain, so I just built a simple 2 link w/panhard. Some time this winter I am going to swap the single Delta out for a Hydroholics 5 dump manifold, so I can run front and back off of the single pump. She's my semi daily driver, so I didn't want a trunk full of pumps and batteries, since it's usually full of strollers and groceries. [​IMG]Hosted on Fotki [​IMG]Hosted on Fotki
