Weld's 40 Ford pickup

[214Chevy]

I used to love that video..."She's got legs."

Now that the Greg Weld garage sale is on, I'll look forward to seeing what's next. Are we doing a 2x2 tube chassis and carbon GT-spec racer that will look like some kind of car that kind of suggests one that was sold for the street at some point in idealized American history? Some neon light tubing might be just the trick . . .

I'm hoping it has a bit of this going on...

With all these new track cars being built -- The BMF CamerFord - The FalCorette - The Payton NASCAR inspired what's left of a Camaro - the Schwarz AMXexcutioner.... All I'm trying to do is stay ahead. With little, or any skills - that means it'll take more car. After all - that is the way things have gone around here... PT cars can't run with race cars - so they become more race car... then the race cars have to step up their game and so on. I'm only too happy to oblige 'em.

THAT appears EXCEEDINGLY heavy...... Maybe think more of a Lotus inspired '65 Mustang... with attitude. LOL

Hell yeah Joe! Not only check out my '40 - but Eric has some pretty sweet other projects going on in there.... and some real nice machinery etc!

I run with one of our Pantera Vendors that has
a Tube frame Pantera... 2200lbs, 358 Nascar motor, 850hp,
12" wheels in front 13" out back with Slicks,
Glass body etc... Very very fast car... I can almost stay
with him in the corners but hit the straight and goodby

I almost bought the Twin car years back that needed to
be totally gone thru etc.. he may still have it

My problem is time and wanting to have a car that I can
drive on the street and also track... my Pantera has gone
about as far as I can go without it being a total track car

Bob

Ps... Greg told me what he thinks his next car
will be when I drove down to Laguna.. maybe if you guys show
up at the track once in while he will let you know also

Ok Greg, this build started on 7/14 and here we wait. Time to go pick up the ride, put it in your shop and start putting those skills of yours back to use!! It's winter time in Sun Valley, what else you got to do this time of year with those hands?? Last time anything took you this long to build it was that cabin your working on and this is just suppose to be a driver. Let's go Nancy
