But I'll always want my big GP too.

i found the perfect ride for ya IDJ...

We have one of those flatheads at the shop, I dig how the exhaust comes out the top and the radiator has like window blinds in front of it.

that shudder system is a joke so far we had 2 caddy's that had that system 1 ran fine with it and this one cant have it we had to use a socket to hold it permently open. the 1937 caddy we had was running to hot no matter if you were in winter or not. really nice car but need a ton of body work the guy who bought it owns the trucking company that ships all of walmarts goods with in the country.

Thats kickass! I'd like a title of something like that to start with, but that one needs to stay like it is. Its too cool to hack. I'd like to add a foot or two of width to that kind of body / frame (with hard top) if its for traffic duty.

Often, we pass time while sanding by playing would you rather... y'know with celeb chix current or vintage, and which would you rather if this one was dead a few hours or covered in sewage lol. It gets hilarious. I was stumped by MaryAnn or Jeannie.

Hood bird and interior peeks. Woops yeah that was my dusty elbow on the console, had been sanding primer on that filler panel. Pay no mind to the steering wheel and maybe shifter stick. I had said charcoal interior but this is black with red stitching. Hood gets sanded and re-cleared to bury ridges at color edges.

so when is it going to be droped off at my house?

Soon as your trade-ins and Scotty's check get here lol

thats C.O.D. man, and a real good test drive first lol

Yeah its the delivery fees that'll get ya. Don't send Jeff Gordon over in disguise to try it out.

SEND? ill test drive it myself tank you. we dont need that has been jeff gordon around.

Aw y'know those Chevy commercials they had awhile back.

yeah i seen em. guy want to sue them over it cause he really had no idea. the car salesman one.

Looks great..where's the "other" piece with the arrow head in it?

The fiberglass scoop body goes behind that piece and is awaiting lettering I think. The arrow piece sits about where the cone filter is now and below it is the ductwork to make scoop functional. We had it all up there briefly, it ought to look cool if nothing else.

The pieces go like this. Spent today ironing out gaps and stuff.

ok nit picky question why is the radator cap showing? it would look much cleaner if it was hidden. over all looks awsome

Visualize the level of the TB. That curved panel has to sit on top of the radiator. Don't know of any radiators with caps on the side. I think it'd look better with nothing there and a carb.

so whats that cap then?
