hmmmmm Maybe a 5.4 DOHC, Kenne Bell 'charger, T-56 Magnum 6 speed, and a Quickie IRS?????
Nope Dave, ain't a Ford motor guy
Just gonna do another 410" SBC
Already looking sharp.
What manufacturer built the body?
looks sweet
Bet it's an N&N Body!!
Chassis is painted,plumbed, and ready to mount body(which is already painted) not to far away from stuffin the running gear, wire and fire.
The whole chassis really looks great, and the wheels are perfect for the car!
Looks like its coming on fast, neato
Very nice build!! Please keep us updated. Always nice to follow a build. Thanks
Its missing something ummmmmm I know what it is now Dick Rodwell windshield and top. LOL Looking good but what would expect. You DA man
Thanx Dennie
Thought I'd do a coupe this time around,since the last 5 I built were roadsters.:cool::cool::cool:
Will you have the coupe at LA Roadster Show? Were you in Bakersfield '08?
LOOOOKING Good

Looking good,is your transmission mount made out of flat stock or tubing?

Anutter Update.
Wired, pinstriped, Ready to rock and roll.
Then to "Mangus" for the guts.
Really looks nice Don!!! Who did you get to do the artwork? Looks great!
Thanx Dave, my line guy is Bill Knight, been doin it for years here in the sowest.
Ya ought to see sum of his really nice stuff, it'd blow ya away.
Great work!!! I've used a buddy named Ron Sutherland since we were teenagers...unfortunately he died a couple years ago...Haven't had any artwork on anything since. Did Bill work out of your old store sometimes?????
Well, it's fired and now got 15 miles on it.
Down the hill, around town, and back up the hill.
This thing is gonna B an animal, once I get 'er broke in..
Looks good, I saw your orange coupe at Bakersfield 08, Obviously didn't know whoose it was then.
Whats the fog light on this one ???
What tires are those? I like the tread pattern. Can you give brand, sizes front & back & how tall & wheel width. I need a different tire.
Fronts aren't a problem to find- it's the rears that give me fits. Rear Halibrand is a 15x10 & there's not much out there that's 31-32" tall that fit a 10" wide wheel w/ a non-directional pattern.
Steve, these aren't quite 32" tall, but call Coker Tire to check the diameter, they have the BFG T/A Radial 285/70-15 that works perfect on a 15"X10".
Mike
Loaded and ready to go to "Mangus" in the early A.M. for the "Oxblood" guts
Got it back today from "My brother with a differant mother"
As usual I let Ronny do his thing.
XLNT choice of style, XLNT quality and he got it done in 5 days.
Now how can ya beat that???
Trunk & headliner.
Gorgeous, just flat gorgeous Don!!!! My compliments to the master that did it!!!!
Very very smart build. You've obviously done similar many times before - 'cause it shows :)
.
Very nice! I would certainly be happy with an interior like that.
