:D :D :D :D :yes:

Great work going on!
 

Love the back of the car.

Did I miss it somewhere, but I thought you were running an LS motor? If so, they need to move the inlet on the radiator to the passenger side. Just sayin'

He's ain't using no LS motor - Mario is going all the way with a 572 Big Block.

He's keeping it Old School Cool

My bad
 

too lazy to go through 50+ pages to figure it out. 572...that should be a bad motor scooter!

Frigging sweet! :faint:

Lookin good Mario :thumbsup: And nice work Troy! :thumbsup: So when is this bad boy coming back for body and paint?

Car is looking great Mario. You keeping the 572 stock or updating it a bit? :D

Very Nice..

I'm happy with it to Curtis!
Rick no finish date has been discused yet. After seeing the work done by Troy I'm going to have him finish ALL the fab work on the car. Right now the wheels are the hold up we need them to ''WIDEN'' the front of the car. And I'm holding that up! I'm painting them today.:willy: I think once Troy gets the wheels then we can get close to a delivery date.
Jay the 572 will be get a little more ''punch''. I'm going with the eight barrel fuel injection set up also..

Mario- Its looking killer, great fab, looking forward to the progress. Whats backing up that monster BB, magnum t56 and dual disk?

:cheers: Rich

Yes exactly Rich!

Wow...sure ain't your Daddy's L_!

:lol:

Mario - love the heavy metal work and direction of this car. You will have a beautiful beast on your hands when it's done :cheers:

That ass looks great Mario. What's the plan for the fuel tank?

Mario- Fab work is looking good.. I now have a better visual idea on exhaust opening you were try to explain to me. :thumbsup:

See ya next month! Flying into Chicago..

Thanx Todd! Troy is going to build a tank that will work with the exhaust .When Mike did the floor he took out the spair tire well so the tank will sit higher.

Just remember to allow for that old man HEAT which will make the exhaust grow bigger than you're you know what!

Frisbee managed to cause all manor of crap for me on the '32 with not allowing for that growth.


Looks fantastic!!! Love that big bad ass look and that 572 is just the motor to pump it up!!:cheers:

Looks great , and I dig that exhaust outlet

OOOOHH I hear ya Greg we should have plenty of room! But that one will go in my ''THINGS TO PAY ATTENTION TO'' notes.:yes:
Thanx Josh !! I think this was my only design idea on the whole car.:lol:

The problem was that the "tip" was FIXED.... so all the nice "wubba" hangers didn't help - because the end was fixed solid. That's what I saw about the way your's is done. It appears to be bolted in place "solid".

Just tossing this out there to help.

A flex joint will be installed at the rear of the exhaust to allow for movement.

AHHH I see what your saying! Thanx Greg I don't even want to know what that repair cost you! But this is how we learn. And see my man is already on it! Its nice to know you have extra eyes out there you da man..

Its been a month and the only update is an exhaust tip?
Looks like somebody is busy since they became a TV star. :lol:

Just yanking your chain Troy that looks better than expected!

Mike

Little update.
 

Just finished up painting the hats for my wheels. The color is Lexus Tiger Eye with a matte clear coat finish.The color changes to almost a black when it gets out of the sun,its a pretty cool effect!I think it will make a great accent color against the black. Now I can send them back to Zak at Boze to get put together. :willy:

Looke great Mario, what finish did you go with the hoops?

Nice! Very unique Mario...:cheers:

I'm really digging the color on those centers Mario!

Very cool color. :thumbsup:

Rick it's a satin finsh almost like a semi gloss.

What everybody said!

Thanx guys !!!!

I might have missed it, but what color outers are you going to have, or is that classified?

Matt

There you go buddy boy. Only two posts up (!), but it's not a Ford so I understand...:lol:

Matt the outers are black with the same satin finish.

Thanx Al !!

Cool you gotta let me know when this bad boy comes back to your shop, I have to come by and check it out!

Very Nice Mario!

Mario
The color came out way better on the wheels than the malibu! I was not sure of the black with the rootbeer but you nailed it!
Mike

Looking great Mario.
