land speed car! motor set back about where the dash is, potvin blower in front of it. Driver set back in the back seat area. tonneau cover, funny car cage etc etc

I may be interested as Ive always hated how most of the Cammers have looked though the years!!!

THAT INTERIOR IS KILLER!!!

I forgot all about that site....now Im gonna lose even more time from my day... Oh, and the coupe is already looking killer EDIT..I dont know why the "BLAH BLAH BLAH" was there..it wasnt when I posted

I have a few, and Im determined to build one eventually. I also have most of a "chopped deuce" version body

looks awesome! I see a possible land speed project in my future haha

Amazing fab skills! As an off road/Mega truck guy, Your suspension, axle and shock work looks right on, as does everything else youve built for this project. Ive seen Fury Road, and while its not "my thing" I did enjoy it and your model Is AMAZING!!!

We know you hung the body over the chassis....now spill haha

Amazing work as usual Tim!!! Here I was excited to section a 53 f100 and have it come out needing no filler haha

killer!

following for sure as I love this build style!!!

AWESOME

thanks Bill!, thats exactly where I was going with my comment but was in a time crunch! The joys of chasing a 1 1/2 year old little girl around the house haha Today, I went to put clothes in the washer and she turned my under construction office wall into an art canvas...literally gone from the room a minute. Anyways... Garry, I went through my Land speed books, My information ends in 1968, My oldest rule book is 2008. I guess the next step would be to search out some of the big gun cars back then, but theyre going to be mainly jet and aircraft engined.

correct that weight is not an issue on the salt, but torque is. light on the pedal is the way to drive, even sub 200. If youve ever driven on packed snow at speed, you know what im describing. You dont steer, the car floats around. Its an amazing experience. Im actually toying around with building a diesel roadster to get back out there and race again. I really do miss it. Im liking the driver up front idea and the narrowing of the body. I would guess that you could shave your tires of the tread and rounded them, they would look ok, OR, find some O rings that fit on your wheels. Remember, minimal contact patch is speed...I havent forgotten about my offer to you on the rule book info. Still working on it

yep, 429 or 460. I hate when they put the breathers on the bottom.. Good way for the oil to get all over the headers and start a fire

galaxie roof?

I may be able to help with records but itll take me a few days to do some digging as Im not sure what the cutoff year of one of my books is. I think its 1968 unfortunately . The rules may be a bit harder as my oldest rulebook is 07. let me see what I can find out on a few land speed groups Im in on facebook

you have a rule book? If you need someone to look up stuff, I have an older book here. which reminds me, I need a new one actually since Im kind of planning a new 1:1 build

i say build the 34 into a landspeed car...where a downsized 34 would fit right in haha

LOVE that color. looks like it laid nice and flat too!

that kind of torque would be an issue out there. With that said...GET CUTTING... I CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS!!!!!

Amazing piece of ART Tim!!!!

We need more land speed builds!!! Looks awesome, man I miss racing

This may very well be the perfect f100...I feel I need to build it in 1:1 haha

I literally just mocked up my 65 kit the other night to pick which wheels I wanted to run on my 1:1 65 haha
