Chuckathon: Help Chuck get back onto the Dragstrip

Wow Bill, you've been busy! This weekend Chuck and I will come over and help you set the body onto the frame.

That Bill's a cuttin machine

I envy you Chuck.
Boy, does that bring back memories when I built my "69" in 1985.

How about trading my Maverick for your Mustang? I dont think you would fit in a Maverick buddy
Regards.
Al

He'd fit Al, they came out with a backseat, just take out the front and let him sit in the back

Dan he wanted my Pinto but we figured we would have to take out the back window so his head could stick up out thru it..... I know at teh 2008 Bash I sat in his car and lacked 12 or so inches just to reach the peddles..........


Randy

I know Coug ,I've sat in it too...kinda lets you know how Les & Gerry feel when they go anywhere and have to get a Booster seat

yeah just think if they sat in his car the would just barely get their feet hanging over the edge and have 3 ft to the peddles...... take a big block of wood for them to reach it.......



Randy

More like a set of stilts

Coug you and Dan need to stop picking on the handicap. At the NMRA race in BG Dan got in my car and it looked like a little kid about 4 years old setting in there.Someone oiled down the track and Dan took a nap in my car.Now for new update me and Damon went down to Bill's house today to help him sit the new body over on the frame.I am very happy how everything fit on the frame.There is a couple of places Bill said that needs to be trimmed up too make the body fit the way he wants.But all in all everything looks great.Damon and Bill both took pictures of everything and should be up on here in the next couple of days.I can't wait too see it done.Its going to turn alot of peoples heads.Thanks again Bill and everyone that has helped out.I can't say it enough.You guys are GREAT!!

Can't wait to see it Chuck. Is it going to sit low? I looked for a fuel cell at Columbus but all I seen was a 10 gal. and he thought it was lined w/gold.
Are you going to use headers that run inside or outside the frame? LiL Tweety's run outside and it opens up alot of room for oil pan removal,starter,header removal,and the use of a engine diaper. And lastly what parts do you still need? Glad it's coming together

Rick,


I need to update the list again however not much has changed since the last update as far as parts. WE really need the fuel cell or at least the measurements so I may have to go ahead and buy one. We need a 5 gallon aluminum cell. Chuck and Bill were talking about an aluminum fuel cell from ART? I haven't looked into it yet.

I haven't downloaded my pictures yet but looks like Bill has. I'll list them on the build thread

I personally like a Alum. fuel cell over plastic and foam. But thats just me.
