Will the REAL BLEEDSTER please stand up? UPDATE PICS!

Please stand up, please stand up........

So this is where it is at this point. I've busted my**** the last couple of weeks and this is how far I got. I wanted it to be more complete for the Pile up, but a few set backs held me back....

I'm pretty proud of it anyway.

For those who don't know this car is based on one of the new "Rat Boy" kits from Speedway..... It comes complete with a rule book.











This is what the kit looked like when it arrived in mid January. The over all quality was really nice and everything seemed to fit well.



This is how it looked after pre****embly and is basicly how it was as of 3 1/2 weeks ago.



The kit supplied valve covers really make the sbc look like a Nailhead. Intake supplied by the "Intake Fairy" (RADSHIT RULES!)



The speedway guys really know how to build a frame.



So off to the Pile Up it is.
It will be painted and put on the road in the next few weeks.

Also, I made Plexi templates for glass tonight so the cardboard is gone.

I'm pretty excited about this car, but I need a nap.

 

i was wondering what you were doing up at 3 am... then i realized I was still up.

BAD F'n**** bleed,
ill see you Fri night! I got ahold of Aaron!
See ya at the pile up.

The "Mic" shifter is soooo cool!! Great ideal.

 

Hey Bob, that baby Kicks****!!! Wow, your the MAN!!

Excellent kit!!!! Should be as nice as your green "Classic Motor Carriages" roadster......Is that REALLY a fake nailhead or is there a VW motor hidden inside???

Looks absolutlely killer, bro. I really dig the wheels.

 

Thanks fellas, I can't wait to drive it! Still lot's to do though..........

The rear tires are NOS vintage cheaters they are in awsome shape as far as cracks, but they are HARD as a rock. I had to put them in front of the torpedo heater to soften them enough to mount.

 

well its official, that is the coolest car ive ever seen! whats that steering wheel off of?

 

fuckin beautiful, the body looks flawless. so you went with the nailhead kit and not the hemi kit. no really real nice work Bob.. Though I think the spiders dont look right, lucky for you I will take them off your hands..

 

dude your style rules.

 

...and thats the coolest thing since sliced bread!

IMPRESSED....Love your style!

Very cool Bob, A lot of nice choices on the trim pieces, very Art Deco, and the shifter handle rules. You have good taste, Nice Job.

 

I'm in love. Friggin awesome. Glad to see such a sweet design on it's way to being painted and polished. "Unfinished" cars are cool enough, but painted frames and wheels and some chrome are cooler...

Must be all the metal in those taillights weighing down the rear end...

That is a work of art!!! Congratulations for a job well done!

Bob, one question. How are you ever gonna decide which car to drive...two cool roadsters and only one bleed...how will you do it?
