Bad ride! What's it powered by, Hemi?
|
Looks like a flathead to me.
|
I say 392? hemi DODGE
|
Very Cool.
Looking great. Love all the carbs and the upsweep headers. It's a Hemi Chrysler. Probably a 392. Sorry to correct 409, but Dodge didn't make a 392, had the Red Ram engines. |
Right on, 1957 392 chrysler hemi, 6-71 weiand with 8 stromberg 2bbls, goes like hell. Oh yeah the body is a 1929 dodge cut 3 3/4 inches on original frame, boxed and shortened a foot, and I am not even a chrysler freak.
Sometimes you just go too far with things. |

Looks great!!! I've always wondered what your Hot Rod looked like, pretty cool:cool: :cool: :cool: How's Lisa? Are you guys comming down for the OS Worlds?
|
Is that street legal? Hot ****. Love the flames, but you could have used a gloss black paint.
|
Hey Paul how are you and marsha??? Lisa and I are still having fun, we had a great time in the bahamas. About november in the keys,
I am going to try, we have a couple of weddings to go to and I hope that they dont interfere. I have yet to get lisa down there and I hear about it all the time. Jacksonville next weekend and then boatoberfest in oct. I am almost ready to come down for good and work for you, ya never know. Ron P I tried to make it glossy, but the primer is a lauqer and when I put gloss in it, it blushed real bad. there is some though, just enough so you can wash it and it wont absorb it like a sponge and still has the late 50's look. Street legal? hell yeah! there is no inspection in sunny FLA. So as long as I dont get pulled over, I dont get any tickets!! |
I think you need a bigger motor!!!:D :D :D :D
