Greg Myers Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Seems to be the trend nowa days with 1:1 cars, spindle mounts, no brakes, goofy "Artillery" wheels, and even goofier torpedo style head lights not shown here.Then let's stick the out the side of the body, again not shown here.

jjsipes Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I like it but it needs an early hemi instead of what appears to be a Chevy "W block". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Myers Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Boy, nothing gets by you guys.But hey, this looks like a pretty neat build.do you think that Vicky was shortened or is it stock.I really like this W motor and all.Just thought i'd share it with you. Hope you liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draggon Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 That would make a nice basis for a more traditional rod. The goofy parts can be replaced easily. The only issue I have is the reworking of the rear wheel wells. That would take a bit of surgery to fix. Greg, I don't think it's been shortened, I think that rear wheel well issue is what makes it appear like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisBcritter Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Shortened through the doors, maybe. The body lines around the windows, cowl and beltline are nothing like those of a real '28 Dodge, anyhow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
