AWESOME

the modern 5.0 fits quite well in the fox platform actually.

Much better on the supports!!!

"only" haha I suppose that is the most appropriate word I agree on the supports, Id move them out farther

how many holes on this one Dan? haha

I grew up in Litchfield county, spent lots of time up in Bethlehem, Morris, etc. Im down in Naugatuck now. You hit it out of the park on the pearl

AWESOME!!! I wish I still had the 56 chevy my father and I built when I was his age. I think Im gonna hunt one down and build another

KILLER!

I thought Ace had it back on the bench!

good stuff guys!!! thank you! I always weather my tires, just never used these because theyre plastic. So I decided since I have some to see if I can do something with them.

I have some of these old plastic tires. Before I get rid of them, is there a way to make them look more realistic? I was planning to blend the seam and spray them in primer. any other ideas? thanks guys!

looks awesome

dirt and asphalt setup is interesting to me esp outside spring rate numbers. it's crazy how complicated turning left is haha my jaw dropped the first time I saw a pull bar work

Traction is the big issue out there, We only ran 1 inch of suspension travel because we needed to be on a suspended car. To make the car hook, we were actually stiffening the left front and right rear to combat the unloading of the right rear tire. We also didnt run a posi/spool because "its not if, its when you spin a roadster" another way we dealt with traction was to ballast the car heavy. some guys even have weight bars in areas of the car to ballast one side or the other. Its not uncommon to see "hot rod" type race cars weigh in well over 3000 pounds BTW. car looks AWESOME

COOL

If youre interested in trading them, let me know!

Completed great trades with @Paul Payne @SCRWDRVR @Bills72sj @TarheelRick and Ricky D Thanks Guys!

Ill be following! where did you get the wheels?

I'm gonna do some photo searching when I put the kids to bed. my first thought would be bronze but thats common. maybe a smoked chrome or a chrome lip and painted centers

I like it!
