Looks awesome, Dave! This is going to be a real beauty.
Got the tires and wheels for the Plymouth on Saturday, just had to mock them up to see how it would look.... Oh yeah, the red on the car is the OEM primer, not rust!!! This thing is in really awesome condition!!! Will start fitting the engine and building the crossmembers for the frame next week, what a fun project it's turning out to be!!!! Think the owner did a jam up job of picking the tires and wheels, gonna look like a stock old Plymouth with chrome wheels-----and nobody will even see the 5.7L Hemi and all the other goodies!!!!! Deception is kewl, isn't it??????;):LOL::LOL::LOL:
keep them coming Dave. Sleepers Rock!:3dSMILE:
Dave you have yourself a new car there why you fixing it up . It is nice to start with such a clean body, gets them put on the road fast when you can work on them .
Well, after almost 1 1/2 years up on blocks, I finally made all the new fuel connections and adapters and installed the new custom fuel tank in the Bentley. Dumped in 5 gallons of Fuel and after charging the battery she fired up on the second try. Now to find and Insurance agent to register this thing and get driving again.
That's a cool ride, do you have some close up pics you can post?
Good news on the Bentley!!! The car sure is going to be a blast to cruise in, doubt you'll ever pull up to a stoplight beside another one just like it!!!!
Here's a few of the Bentley.
Cool Bentley!
Wow, a big blower plus right hand drive; that is too cool. Better get two spots at the car show, you'll need the room for all the gawkers you're going to have standing around.
Falconvan, any updated photos of that engine install?
I hope you got an underdrive pulley to replace that monster crank pulley..:)
It's pretty close; it should be ready for a test start this weekend. I just picked up my new 14" long driveshaft last night. I'll take a few new shots and post them Sunday. It's a good thing I used that short water pump and single pulley or I'd have never got the radiator and fan in it. I'm getting anxious to blow those little pizza cutter tires off of it with a smokey burnout!
With all the wiring and boxes on top it looks terrible, but the Plymouth has a hemi---going to build some motor mounts tomorrow. Also started building some crossmembers for the frame. The whole project is shaping up quite nicely, gonna be a neat car!!!!!
Think you should start a pool on how many seconds those itsy bitsy tires will last during the burnout!!!!!Quote:
