E St. Kruiser50 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 (edited) Dave, I'm glad that you liked it! I'm always a bit skeptical about adding pictures of my stuff to other people’s posts. Sometimes the post gets hijacked and moves off in some other direction when you do that… It's funny seeing the difference in approaches you and I took in integrating the Vette chassis...I used the chassis from two Z06 Vettes to get mine stretched to meet the wheelbase length of the original truck and you shortened the body on yours. I think that for the roadster look you're going for, shortening the body was absolutely the right approach. It looks awesome!! Mine was painted with Testors 2 part spray can lacquer (Italian Red and clear). What color interior are you going to use? I really like the Testors fabric tan with this shade of red, but I used gray to match the '50 Chevy pickup that I had done in a ZR-1 theme several years earlier. Keep up the GREAT work!![/qu Edited October 28, 2008 by Treehugger Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E St. Kruiser50 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) Hey Kevin I like your tribute '68 Bullitt Brings back lots of memories man. In Dec. 1966, I took delivery of a brand new Forest Green 1967 390 Hi Pro mustang fastback. It was factory rated at 325 HP, but was dyno'd right at 400. After the Hooker headers and dumping the FOMOCO 600 cfm carb for a Holley 750, it dyno'd at nearly 425 HP. It was a fun screamer. Those were the days of street racing, and cruizin' "E" street and the original McDonald'd in San Bernardino, calif., close to you. I grew up in San Berdoo, in the 40's thru the late 70's and used to date a few girls from Fontana. Fun memories.

E St. Kruiser50 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 hay did you ever race on route 66 alot of tuners race on it now a days as well as exotics Nope. Never did race 66. Raced up and down "E" street a lot, the main cruiz. Didn't have racing laws back then. They had to write um cuz of us . South San Berdoo between the i5 freeway and the Riverside freeway was where we went for SERIOUS RACIN". Probably not even there anymore. We were all a buncha speed freaks back then, and hoarse power junkies. My first car was a '50 Merc that I put a early Chrysler Hemi in with dual quads. No big deal back then. Every guy and his brother had a racer of some kind. It was just what we did in the late 50's early 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
