My homebuilt sees the light of day for the first time

Alf, kudos, the car will be awesome. Seems to me you've got the right mindset and some talent to boot.

Keep up the good work, keep us posted.

 

No dude, you just need to open yours.

Hot rodding means different things to different people. Would I build a hot rod with a Toyota or Nissan engine?? Well it wouldn't be my choice, because I'd want to run a hemi, a caddy, a nailhead, or a rocket. However, if I were broke and a Japanese engine & tranny was there, available, and cheap I might go in that direction.

Shit, if we go and invade Iran next, and gas goes past 5 bucks a gallon, I'd slam a big japanese 1100cc inline 4 motorcycle engine & tranny into a mini-car like a fiat 600 in a hearbeat. You adapt or you perish.

I just hate to see a young guy like this get a bunch of negative feedback on his first build. A lot of older guys around here can't figure out why so many of the young guys choose Hondas over model A's and don't repect hot rodding history, while they simultaneously bash them and talk shit about them. Duh. I wonder why?

 

Oh now....how about an Chevette engine in an early roadster?

 

i know,,your stocker with a desoto grille is SO traditional,,,,you KING PIN!

,,how do you sleep at night knowing the shifters,choppers ,jimmy white,etc,are so close to you,and PROBABLY doing drive by's to HOPEFULLY pass by at the right time with your garage door OPEN....,(HEY,i mean,,,,you ARE in so. cal after all,,,)

dude,,,im sure aland haynes from olskool rat rodz(tm) is beating down your door for a feature,,,,

 

GOOD job..slowly, off to good start

 

Lol! Wow where did you dig up that old pic, thats like 2 years old! Ive done much work since then. You must have no life to be on here 24/7 digging up people's sh*t. Besides many people LOVING my Chevy and getting many compliments on it and car clubs wanting me to join, etc, I also own a all original t rpu that will blow your corn-fed, sheep lovin, cow milkin, no tooth havin socks off!

 

Too much shit talking, too much Drama.

This one is done.
