Projects The best 6 hours of my Deuce's life (or, NO MORE UGLY FLAMES)

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Groucho, Jul 22, 2009.

  1. I like your (build) style Groucho!
     
  2. THANKS everybody. I'm getting pretty excited about this thing now. All the months looking at it in flat black just didn't "do" it for me. Now I'm ready to burn some rubber. Anyway, I'll be collecting motor parts now. So, except for putting the tailites/door handles/license plate back on, there won't be too much progress for a little while. I'll prolly start figuring out where the motor/grill will end up soon. I'll post more as I progress
     
  3. I sure like the subtle flames on your avatar picture

    Groucho, you've always got the coolest stuff! The flat black was just AWFUL and the gold is a HUGE improvement.

    However, gotta tell you the red/orange version with the injected Jimmy was probably my favorite Deuce ever! Still never seen anything quite like it.

    The SBC will be cool... setting the firewall back gives you a lot of options. :) Here's some inspiration!

    Add me to the "WOW" club! Looks really great!

    Maybe if you are careful you can scuff pad thru to the old flames to add that perfect finishing touch:D

    Seriously, I love it

    Looks killer. I still find it amazing the differance color and tire and wheel combo makes. Before I don't think there is a guy on the HAMB that would have given this car a second look, other than to say "Damn what a waste!" but just try and walk by it now. It wouldn't let you. This thing is what a hot rod should be. It just yells "Hey, get over here and look at me!" great job on bringing her back from the land of lost toys. As for the Cal Custom shark mouth scoops, is anyone repoping those or do you have to find original ones?

    Didn't I just see this posted for sale? The minute I saw the ad my mind put one of my BBC's in there and I was headed for Mokan.:eek::cool:
    Killer car now that you've got the right 'LOOK' dialed in.
