Looks GREAT!!!!I'll hafe to go to the show to check it out Probably the only different car there ,that hasn't been there every year
Ill just cover the edges and go ahead and shoot it black as I will the frame .. as soon as I get it together enough and weather is good enough i need to get it to Meyers to letter it for me...
That's going to be a beautiful car and it's a great color but I would like to suggest a name change. We have thousands of Viet Nam vets that are suffering from the effects of 'agent orange'. Thousands of others have died from that chemical. Please reconsider the name.
I could not agree more. Our Nam Vets are still suffering the consequences of the use of this dangerous cancer causing herbicide/defoliant. It is JMHO, but I feel it is totally disrespectful to use this name. Thanks for the post Bob. http://www1.va.gov/agentorange/
I am a disabled vet circa 1969 myself........I dont see it as an insult.... but thanks for your input and opinion.. put the motor in today and all of the suspension is done ... pics later this weekend
...here it comes. You come up with a cool name, and someone has to slap your pee pee cause the name reminds them of something bad in the past. Gimme a break already. You newbies with one post need to do an introduction before you enter someones garage and start tellin' people what they should or shouldn't do. Sam, call it what you want.
Your an FNG so I'm gonna cut you some slack there, not much though!...So lemme tell ya what...obviously you need to learn how to talk to people (especially on here)...you outta know who and what your talkin about before you go shootin off your mouth...My Uncle Tony, (a 3 tour, combat infantry Marine in Vietnam if your not sure what that is perhaps you should do some research) he built an "Agent Orange" themed, color/named custom motorcycle 15-20 yrs ago...He suffers everyday from the effects of this awful disease..I've showed him this ride and he LOVED IT!...He is not in denial and will tell you "not talking about it" doesn't change anything...So save your suggestions for the people who ask for them!!! Welcome to the HAMB!
Damn Larry I guess the time I did over there didnt count for nothin...I think I have earned the right to call it what ever the hell i want to call it... this is a car site.. for car guys and that is what we are....next we will have to have all the rat rod guys take off the iron crosses etc..... welcome to the hamb FNG!!!
Don't cut me any slack ***hole. I posted my opinion respectfully and asked him to reconsider the name. He replied repectfully. You talk about your uncle. I''m talking about us. The difference is that although most disagreed with the war we went. And a lot of the guys paid a huge price. Please extend my sympathy to your uncle. One because he had to work for the Navy and two because he has such an idiot for a nephew. Now phuck off.
I posted this so those interested could look and take it for what it is, My New Race Car...nothing more or less.. I didn't do it so people could get off on the viet nam war conflict betwinxt themselves... If you don't like the thing or me or how I did it fine, but hows about we keep it on the car .... you have a problem with me PM me or move on.... thanks ....................
Looks nice Sam. It's really gonna **** to have that pretty cars *** kicked by my old beat to death beater.LOL
Yea I know,,, but I'll take it like a man, now get off your *** and get it ready for summer... Man now that the motor is in it its sure lookin like a race car and I'm likin it..........
Sam, I gotta retort to this then I'm done...I love the car, the color and the name! No politics... Firstly Bob, who are you to ask him to consider changin ****?...It's his car...If ya don't like it, don't look! Very simply this forum is about individuals doin thier thing the way they want to, without the need of approval or permission for thier creations/art from anybody. I'm sure there are other P/C forums that cater to your delicate sensabilities. Secondly I never used profain language or called you names or made idol threats...Who's the idiot now? As far as my Uncle goes, he enlisted so he could go and do his duty for his country (wether he agreed with the politics or not), to insure even people like YOU can have an opinion even if no one asked you for it...Now having said my piece, if you have any other BS to spew at me, you can PM me.. Once again Sam...Nice ride...would ya mind if I started construction on "Agent Orange II"[?quote=bob korreck]Don't cut me any slack ***hole.

And now back to the regularly scheduled program. Dragrcr50, did I miss a previous post about how you put the ribs in the roof? Edsel wagon maybe? The car looks great, lets see some more progress pics. It's your car, call it whatever you want, how about the Anti Santa Claus Rcr? Come Christmas time all the kids will send you hatemail.

look back i have a few posts of it being built, mostly they say vicky , but it is a 90 blazer two door roof a sedan would need a 4 door roof i suspect since the vicky is so short...
Agent Orange, GREAT BAND! It's been in the realm of HOT RODDING and MUSIC for years to use controversial symbols and names, no one is ******* on our vets here. The color is SO COOL! I can't wait to see this ****uh bolted together!!
