Hot Rods The serious work begins...Tomarrow. My Buick Roadster Modified

One of the finest hot rods ever built IMHO

 

Bitchin' Camaro!

I hope we get to snuggle in Detroit.

 

Well, I hope this helps!

Here are a couple pictures of the passenger side mount, it's not quite done yet, but you get the idea.







Root passes with ER70S2 rod with silicon bronze over passes to ease shaping, it's pretty tight in there and don't want to cut in...

The driver side engine mounting location is farther back and lower than this side and the bases are in the same spot on the frame so they will be side specific.

Tonight I am going to start capping the rubber biscuit...or cut and drill spring leaves..

Take Care,
Matt

 

very cool, makes want to see if painting my 425 purple helps... keep the updates coming...

 

Hahaha, Purple is the new green!

 

There has to be an easier way than this!

Heated and Hammered 3/4" x 1/8" P&O



This will wrap around the entire biscuit...



More to come...Thanks,
Matt Lesky

 

Ill be in Detroit. Can I touch your biscuit?

 

Only If You Ask Nicely and Wear a Red Hat!

 

awesome modified. guess i better quit smoking, mite get more done. great stuff!

 

Having something to do only help's man...

 

great build

 

mounts are lookin good

 

I would like to start this little update by thanking my co workers, friends and family for helping out with this.

Kevin, Dad, I would have never gotten this far this fast-let alone felt this good about where I am with it-if I would have shut you out and tried to do it all myself. Thanks for the great effort and work.

Alright, One engine mount is complete (needs alittle grinding yet) and the transmission is mounted, got the front axle and the rear end in place and welded straight to the frame, the rear end is set up where you can unbolt it, which will make getting this thing off the jig much easier. The front axle isn't removable but it's light. We put the nose back up for proportions...

109.5 wb!!

NOS Chevy Spring







Going to take more off the lower mount to gain some clearance




Quarter Elliptical springs will be filling the gap between the brakes and the body, the body isn't clamped down on the frame, that is why the upper rail is showing.













Thanks for looking, it will be on the ground in a day or two, then we'll really be able to See this thing...I can't wait!

Matt Lesky

 

Oh wait!! I have two more,hahaha

 

thats lookng great.....i love it

 

Very nice I love the attention to detail and great metal workmanship. This will be some thing to be proud of dude.

 

Some of the plates were just welded in temperarily, they will get shaped and worked later on....probably next winter!

 

Is this that car you were telling me about that you guys are building for George Michael? He is gonna looove it... hell I do!

 

Hey PeeVee, Thanks, I really like the proportions of yout truck.. It is obvious you have a good eye.

Appreciate it.
