wicked street rod ... i like the way this guy thinks ...

built almost completely out of stuff the guy had laying around his shop

its 37 inches tall to the roof

the top of the engine will be higher than the roof.by allot.

it will be a driven regularly

his only 2 purchases needed to get it to this point were the grill shell, and a set of rear tires (not shown)

^^^ last pic is the trans cover, with embossed flames :slight_smile:

Ohhhh, I can just see instant death if that driveshaft ever lets go…

He needs an access panel in the trans cover, so he can fix it while driving down the road.

A simple loop will take care of that.

Thats pretty crazy looking. I can’t wait to see it finished.

Thats hot. Ive seen a purple “thing” that looks like that on a show on History. It looked a little over the top but it seems like this guy is going to make it look good. Deffinitely nice looking tho.

little 2 low but i like it

pretty sweet, but i hope he isnt keeping those fron tires, they look way too big and hurt the appearance IMHO

:tup: to creativity, but im not feeling it at all. He’ll have like zero visability in front of him, the inside of that car will be hot as hell with the tranny there, and like already said the front tires are too big and dont see to fit it well.

Would be cool if the wheelbase didnt look all sorts of fucked up from being dropped that low. Good thing those were never meant to handle, suspension geometery what?

Already a local car that is similiar. Not as low, but close.

^^ built buy a friend of my fathers

lol V10?

polished aluminium firewall

caddy 500ci v8

:tup: bitchin’.

:tdown:

It wont look good cause you’ll just be thinking about how uncomfortable it looks.
It wont be fast, cause you’ll die.
It wont be driven far because roads aren’t flat.

What are the approach and depature angles?
