Hot Rods Rocket Roadster

Love it! That stance is right on for that early hot rod look. You guys down under are putting together some cool stuff. I thought you had to run fenders down there though? Did they change that?

 

Dago88 . Cobber , I hope you are no where near those bloody fires mate?
Just been watching it on the news, Our thoughts are with our Ozzy mates
tonight thats for sure.

 

Awww bollocks! Just realised it's Stovebolt who is in Victoria. Stay safe!

 

I'm safe - at least 5 miles away from Saturday's activites. I count myself so lucky.

 

Yes , by law we do have to run fenders, but you see how long you can get away with not running them, a lot of guys seem to do ok for a long time. The Aust Hot Rod Federation seems to worry about it more than the cops, you are not aloud into any events run by them without fenders.
I will be running cut down '35 spare wheel covers, if the need arises.
.
Thank you for your concern 4t6ford we are OK we have had fires here but nothing like they have south of the border, our thoughts are with them.
Cheers Charlie.

 

Nah, Its a Street Rod Federation, thats why they worry about fenders

Shit, did I say that?????

 

Here are some update pics. The chassis prior to the body going back on for the last time. The car is all together & driving now. Will be taking it to a show tomorrow, will update more pics later.

Must say it felt good to drive too. I was tempted to open it up though.

 

Thanks for the cool pic Troy, It's the best one I have so far. I'm sure Retroline has a few he could post . I'm still trying to work out how to post this fangdangle Mpeg video. Can anyone help?
Thanks Charlie.

 

Send it to me, and I'll get it up for you ..... I hope But be quick, as I'm off in a few days.

 

Saw it yesterday, looked to me like an updated pre-war Hot Rod, loved it - now get it finished so you can start on the blown Olds in the "27T" Roadster.....

 

Thanks Fly, Lotta late nights

No secrets here hey Bob .

 

Incredible build! I likey very much.

 

Great to see another Olds powered rod out there, good job.

 

awesome work, the un-dropped axel looks great. I'v been having a great time trying to get the '32 low with a stock axel, really opened a can of worms! So no reason why the a won't be at our show by the way that olds motor looks the best!!!

 

I hope this works
