Bernard Kron Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Blower choice No. 1, I think. Great flame job. Why did you restart and choose building a new (but duplicate) frame from scratch? Very skilled work, so I'm not necessarily complaining , I'm just curious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozono Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 a few weeks a go i was working in the body. the body fall off of my hand and hit the floor an the paint of the nose chip off... .so thats way i start all over again...

CB Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hey Frozono, very nice work on your dragster. Too bad about your dropping it and chipping that fantastic flame job. You want to flame my 1:1 Caravan? It's about the same color as your dragster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker Bob Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 very nice work indeed!! keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noname Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Nice work. I would go with blower set up #1 and make it a period correct 60's dragster. Tha'ts what that blower scoop reminds me of. Edited December 18, 2008 by noname Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Very nice, nice frame job too, to bad about the ruined paint job on the first, will you be painting the flame's on the second as well? I would go with the first blower set up most definitel, fit's you're dragster to a T, keep up the killer work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
