Drag docs's sedan project hits the ground and gets it's engine.. check it out as well as the coolest truck in the world sitting next to it. hahaha enjoy drew
He's gonna be really pissed when he finds out that I sold him a HEMI with no pistons in it. Ha ha ha !
The center cross-member and rear suspension both look great. I was curious what size wheels and tires are on the Sedan and the truck. Thanks
Root canal, nice! My old lady works in the colon and rectal department of a hospital. I hope someday one of the doctors in there will want a hot rod and we could call it the "anal fissure". Is that the "Rudy" truck? It's hard out here for a pimp.
todds sedan is going to be cool glad you guys like it glad he likes it. rudy's truck was started 16 years ago before I could drive so he kinda stole my idea hahaha.. it was my first hot rod project abandoned a few times over that span of time. the tire size on todda are 16 x 4.5 600 and 750's and the trucks is 15x5 560 and the rears are 15x7 710's later dudes
I'm glad to see your working on something for your self again. The PU is gonna be killer. I got myselff a new truck. 1958 Ford PU. It's gonna need a little help. later.
the sedan looks great andy! and i'm really glad to see the progress on YOUR truck...it's about time you get a chance to enjoy one of your own rides! that thing's gonna be bad-ass!!
here we go some more canal pics. The grille is international truck shortened 4 inches. model a headlight stands I used and glommed em to the shell and reinforced it on the back side. shock stands are f1's shortened up and twisted. firewall recessed to keep the wheelbase short. enjoy
Wow! That thing is going to be an animal!!!! Sweet!! Love Hemi cars, as most of you know!! Okay, I see something exciting with the rear suspension that I've been waiting to see and hear about.... Triangulated 4-bar with a transverse spring!! Was thinking about doing this VERY thing with my Murray build! Would like to hear more on what the thinking was behind this. I know a parallel 4-link works well (Jimmy White has proved that). Thinking that the triangulated version would work just as well, if not better because it elliminated the need for a panhard bar. Fill me in, PLEASE!! Awesome!
Also... what are you going to run for a radiator behind that IH grille shell? Sucker is going to have to be short as hell! Very curious. I will be faced with the same dillemma, so I would like to hear what's up with that.
Its awsome stopping by Andys shop, he is always workin on the coolest stuff. The truck is lookin bad ass and the Sedan is commin along nice. gotta love the hemi
Very cool. On my way to Sickamore last sat I stopped at a Rod Shop in Belvedere and there was a truck just like that one. WOW
