A few burnouts and it was done. :lol:

Its not the half shafts. Its the splined yoke that goes into the splined hub that make the wheel turn. 3 burnouts about 10 ft long and it was broke.
Second set that he broke. He will get beefier ones put in.

Greg, you have a beautiful car here. :wow: There are so many cool little details to take in, I wish I had taken more time to look at it.

Hopefully the fix for the half-shafts come quickly and you're able to enjoy it this spring.

Hope to see you down here again sometime soon. :cheers:

I think when you painted the heads you increased the horsepower beyond what the half shafts were designed to take. :rofl:

It's paint? All these years I thought chrome added horse power! Man, I gotta get busy painting and dump all this chrome stuff. I wanna go faster! ;)


Sorry to hear about the broken stuff buddy. I know you've got a strong motor, but the car is so light I didn't think that would have broken again.

Geez.... I stop to make a pot of coffee and have to spend half an hour responding to posts!!!


Bob is right - its NOT the half-shafts its a problem with the "stub axle" spline shaft. Jeff Kugel is having a custom set made with far heavier diameter and bigger splines. Will take about a month to get from the machine shop.


Okay back to trailer truckin'



Four Rodger dee!!!

DAANG! Git er done buddy. I hope all goes well with the new stub axles.

At least you broke it having fun.

That sucks Greg. I hope they get them to you sooner than later.
