I will try and bring this post back on topic.
We were brought this big Lincoln from LA. It laid out at the height shown in the first 2 pics with some garbage rear suspension in it. It was a 2 link that had tubing welding both links together. That should work plus when it laid out the rocker was still 6" off the ground. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...psdf1b5ae3.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps63498c6b.jpg After building a proper 4 link with proper air bag mounts and a cool invention called a panhard bar. It now lays out at the height of the bottom picture. And should drive way better then before. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps399c22e5.jpg Lower and better driveability. Yes I will take some. |
Tall man attract long car projects.
Nice. :cool: |
Holy cow that car is long and now low !

If it's gonna be a 4-door, it's got to be a suicide door Lincoln. I love those cars. It would be the only 4-door I would drive. Very cool Roger!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I wonder what it costs to join the 'inner circle'?...is there a special hand shake? Who buys lunch, which time? Do you have to bring your own music or is it a music by driver only trip. I get the jeans thing but what about shorts? Mick |

I allow passengers to pick up breakfast and lunch sometimes... Dinners are on me. Music is by mutual consent.... Pierre and I both like 60's rock and roll -- and modern country -- so we had music going non-stop. Shorts are fine -- actually anything is fine as long as it's not button down -- or yuppie -- and can be used as a rag if needed.:bitchslap: You only need a secret handshake if you want to hang out with Charley. |

Here is a sneak peak of the start of our valve cover product line. After searching the universe looking for a quality well thought out valve cover I decided to just go about giving a cover some design flare that was made the best it could be. I'm working on getting the proper length 12 point ARP fasteners and getting the final pricing for these caps that will be available in 4 different styles. I'm looking at a retail price of 850.00 for the set.

A little Sneak peak at our Latest chassis that will be on display this weekend in Del Mar. 64-67 Chevelle IRS transaxle chassis. Pretty cool stuff.

This one should be pretty simple but look really good with all that tubing. I might put this design in to production for our truck frames. Exploring some ideas. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...-2-2013006.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...-2-2013005.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...-1-2013030.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...-2-2013007.jpg |
I see a couple short guys in your shop. See if they can take the next set of pictures. I know your used to looking down on everything but the general population has a different perspective.

Good stuff Rodger! What spindles, hubs and control arm bushings are you using on the Chevelle chassis? Also what is the purpose of the bar behind the pumpkin?

Great now that I see this frame I'm never going to finish my Chevelle.:hairpullout: I need to plant that money tree so I can stop dreaming and get to doing. Love the frame.... Great job!

I know you're a smart dude, as is Rodger. I'm just looking to learn something here. |

Chevelle chassis looks good Rodger. :headspin: What model truck frame is the tube chassis for?

I just need to hit the lottery! :G-Dub:

All right I'm pretty excited about these little guys. I have been saying for years that there are no cool interior switches out there. None. Sure you can go to the dealership and buy some mega million dollar switch from some car and pay through the nose for it. But you can never get any switches that match. Ironworks has solved that problem for you. We not only have interior switches that can be made to match exactly no matter what you want to use it for. If you want your power window switch to match your headlight switch no problem, if you want an on off momentary switch no problem.
No more using a pull switch from a 70's pick up truck and power window switches from God knows what. That is not even the same color let alone matches. This is our first model based on the popular design of the Ford GT switch that everyone loves to use. The switch tops are machined from a single piece of aluminum that can me polished, anodized, chromed, painted, powder coated, or whatever you wish. The switch is internally illuminated. The internals came from a switch company that is American made and had a huge selection of available switch lines. These guys make the switches for the OEM's of all kinds of other manufacturers. I'm making this announcement now to begin making awareness of these parts so we can take initial orders in the next few weeks to be filled with our initial order of 1000 switches. We will have a pre-order list for the first 1000 as we get everything together for every ones individual application. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ect/photo5.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ect/photo6.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ect/photo4.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...chInitial2.jpg Thanks |

I'm interested in four. Do you have an estimated cost ?

Nice Rodger, very nice. :trophy-1302: :trophy-1302: Will there be any other finishes....powdercoated grey, black or anodized colors?:thankyou:

How does the aluminum attach to the rocker switch? Set screw?
|
Quote:
It snaps on. No set screws. No plastic inserts. Its really tricky. I had to go through several machinist to get that part of the equation figured out. Rodger |
timeline and estimated retail? Trying to see which shop projects I may want to incorperate them into.
|
Nice! Both of my projects could use a few of these!
|
+1 on Nice!
Will they be available in black anodized with silver Sharpie? |

Rodger I'm pretty sure Ford sells their GT switches as momentary, positive on/off, and up(hi)/center(off)/down(low) which could either be used for hi/low beam or headlight and/or running lights. Hope that makes sense.

Here are the switches in the Ford GT. The switch by the hand in the picture says FOG. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...e_Switches.jpg The switch on the far left says lights. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ect/images.jpg. The other big advantage with these switches is the fact that the switch top is aluminum so we can paint coat or anodize the rocker how ever you like. The switch rock in the Ford GT switch is plastic and not removable. These switches will be able to do all of the above and do the power windows and be much easier to install in our universal applications. Thanks |
