Thumbs up Hurricane by Rad Rides by Troy

I put up a page with 60+ pictures that show a lot of details on the build of the 66 Biscayne that Troy built. Definitely worth checking out. It's a bitchin car.

A Big thanks goes out to Marty for getting the pictures to me.

Absolutely, Jody! That was such a lesson in understated subtlety with so many killer details. Less is more! You just had to keep walking around it. My favorite was the cowl vents and how they tied it into the air cleaner under the flat hood. That's another thing; a carbureted 540 under a flat hood! Very cool!
Thanks Scott and Marty!

There are a bunch more pics of this car on the Rad Rides website... are those DSE Camaro upper front control arms and coil-over kit?

We've got a big-car project coming together, and we've been studying ways to improve the reaction rod front suspensions of these bombs. I like how Rad Rides reinforced the open triangular area on the front of the frame.

I may be wrong but that looks like a seriously hacked up first or second gen camaro subframe.

It's the stock frame. They held on to the straight lower arm with the reaction rods. I don't think DSE makes a full size tubular upper arm, though.
