    Thats from a N Carolina minitruck Pebble Pushers. If the dude isn't a member it was built buy some of them. I would want a more traditional V8 for a mill though.

    Because you need a Vette body to start with unless you want to build the body from scratch and they don't come cheap enough. Believe me, I spent a lot time looking and planning a replica of the 54 Wildcat II. It can be done, but not easy. The Roadmaster was what they cut down for the 53 and 54 Skylark. The car you pictured is now in the Sloan Museum in Flint. It ran a 322 Nail with 3x2, and it was basically the same platform as the 54 Vette. Just looks a lot cooler and was a lot faster :)

    KEEP'EM COMING!!! I'd not only like to see some more cars, but I'd like to see this thread break 100 posts.
    I recently heard of a kaiser rod in west virginia, But I don't have the funds to buy it or a place to park it.

    I recently made a deal with myself that I would spend all the money on old cars that I used to spend on cigarettes, Thus far it has really extended my life, I'll have to live to be 159 to complete all my projects.

    It's all fibergl*** and billet, but you would be drug out in the street and stomped for "ruining" a 1-of-50 automobile. :)

  11. That Austin is way cool. Probably not the fastest car ever built but I'll bet it ranks right up there with the most fun.

    hey there's another TD on here a real hotrod, called the MULE or the Donkey or something like that. it was a real monster back in the day.

    Someone ought to post it. That'll put the post over the top.

    Been doing some searches as to not keep making new threads. This one has some cool cars in it. Anyone else got odd projects in the works?

    This car would be really cool if the headlights were removed and thrown far, far away...or put in a 55 gallon drum, filled with cement, and dropped in the ocean. Not to put down your obvious talent and hard work, the rest of the car looks great. But the headlights, damn. Just, damn.
