Obligatory intro... with pics

Names Tim, I'm 28, Hot rodding is a family thing for me. I Spend almost every weekend out in the garage or tooling around in a rod with my Dad or my boy.

Heres a few pics of the 52 GMC we built 3 years ago. Right now I'm just getting it ready to go back on the road after a few updates. Redid the .406 and bumped the compression, new rotating assembly, heads, cam, tunnel ram... Also just put on the 15x4 Radir tri-ribs and 1" white walls.

The .406 is backed by a built TH350 and Chevy 4.11:1 posi with 20" Pro-Tracs on 15" steelies.

What are you trying to do, corrupt that Boy of yours into liking cars, or something???:3dSMILE: :3dSMILE: :3dSMILE: Start 'em young, huh??? (So did I, you'll never regret it)

Nice looking rides. I'm saving a '29 cowl and 4 Murray doors for the same kind of RP you built, Where did you get those cool seats?

Have fun, guy, and welcome.

Hey thanks for the welcome. Yes I am trying as hard as I can to corrupt the Boy! We built a little mini bike together last summer, lots of fun.

I got the seats from Ebay. They are from a company called "The shitty seat co." Probably could have picked a better company name but they are nice seats. He also makes som really cool "bomber style" seats.

Actually there is a funny story that goes with the seats. We were waiting and waiting for them to come and getting really annoyed to say the least. We kept e-mailing and he kept saying that they had been shipped.

Well, it turns out the company logo is a skull and crossbones and U.P.S. had it sitting in the terminal and wouldn't ship it! They thought it was hazardous!
