  1. Looks real good!! great job!!
  2. Nice work and very clean!
  3. Thank guys, I had the Caddy ideal for a bit now. So after if finished the Digger chassis, then this is it. Pictures don't do it justice. Then the Crosley I’ve wanted to do this car for about 8 years. I have some over cool stuff coming!!.
  4. Turn signals are out of a 1998 Acura, Taillights are 63 Vette. Now what you can't see what we did. We used a 1961 T-Bird Swing away steering column. Also Suicide doors, we made our own hines. We took 11" out of the bed. Wheelbase is 5" shorter. There are so many mods, it goes on an on...lol . Use 32 pounds of mig wire!! Again...6yrs....11,000 hours We have made 5 Magazines with is truck, Been Displayed at some major Casinos. Been on dozens of shirts. And some BIG money thrown at us . But I could not let it go! This is something that my dad and I built, and money can't replace that!!
  5. Thanks guys, a lot of blood an sweat went it to the truck. I got the manifold at Summit, Holly makes it.
  6. They are not done yet but I just wanted to share them with you. What you think so far?
  7. Thanks again. Well ra7c7er, No our front wheels are not touching the track. For Drag racing we keep them off for a couple reasons. 1st it drag, will slow ya down. 2nd we want the braid on the car to have as much contact with the braind on the track, thats where the car is getting its power! Now for the roundy round cars same ideal, but the front wheels come into play is around the turns. If the car starts to lean in the corners, the front wheel will help the car get around the turn. There is a fine line.
  8. Thanks guys, Gregg I make the rims. Thats what I do, I'm a Slotcar Manufacture. I make the chassis, bodies, wheels and tires, motor tools.We have cars that have been 130plus mph on a 1/25 Quater mile (55ft). I'm alway working on new stuff. Here is the newest car.
  9. My did and I finished this truck 6 years ago. My Dad was 71 at the time we started this back it 2000. Took use 6 yrs. 11,000 hours. Now I'm thinking on doing a model of it....Model might be a little harder for me...lol. We did everything bout paint and Int. enjoy
