    As this car starts coming together, its looking uncannily like the cartoon '34 Coupe that I created for our club logo! Same stance, big block engine, gasser spokes up front...seeing my artwork coming to life!
    21:56 I would DEFINITELY do the "tube through frame" mod rather than that tab. Especially with that big heavy, torquey 429 between the rails.

    The BBF looks great sitting in there. As you say you need some stiffness in the front suspension with that big chunk of iron sitting there. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.

  • @user-lw7mw1cj5k
    @user-lw7mw1cj5k Před 3 měsíci +1

    I think you have the perfect engine placement as it fits the gasser vibe you are creating. Setting back the engine was common for improving performance. This is a big powerful engine and I think it would benefit from the setback that you have it sitting at right now. You can build a metal firewall that encases the engine and separates it from the dash. I still love the eye candy gasser wheels. Man they look good with that drilled and dropped axel. This will be one wild car. And as a 34 it will have suicide doors which is a plus for the engine setback. I love watching what you are doing with this car.

    Hey Bawb,
    Something you may be over looking, that 34 radiator has a real slant backwards.
    From my perspective that body is going to need more backwards relocating which would be good for the firewall.
    As is, your rear most exhaust port is really into the cowl area.
    You may be building block hugger headers.
    You are right about that hairpin location needing to be higher.
    It just don't look right with that tab hangin down.
    See ya nex time

  • @morgansword
    @morgansword Před 3 měsíci

    Wish I knew more about doing this up close. Never had a mig so everything done with a stick welder. I like it and of course its a ford so a ford engine just seems right. Now most of the time I was working on the dirt so took trailer spindles and put them on the end of the lift where the pump was/is and of course not good at explaining myself. I did the spindle thing so I could push my hoist around on the dirt.... and of course that evolved into putting a boat trailer tongue on the top so I could take it out to the woods and pull a engine out and just come home with that... then my neighbors seen my mobile engine puller and always wanting to borrow it. They had it when I needed it.... so never loan tools, found out their promises are intended to be good but never follow through. Gotta say tho that hoist was slick... wouldn't turn on the back like those swivel wheels but a bigger tire is so easy to move... best part was the weight it added helped to not make the back of my hoist come off of the ground when lifting heavy stuff. Just having rubber over steel is nice.

    Hi Bob, I learned something about the 33 34 that I wasn't clear on. The whoopti do on the front of the hood was 33 and 34 stock issue. The smooth hoods are hot rod hoods. On fiberglass hoods the pieces tend to warp up or down. While you are fixing the crack down the center of the hood I would fiber glass a couple pieces of 1/2 square tubing going out to the tip of each whoopi doo. I think it would keep the hood looking nice for a long time. Just a thought

    hope this helps
    1 fiberglass will not stick to: glass,plastic,formica,METAL,shipping tape
    2 it will not make a right angle soften any edge by sanding or using some cabosil
    3cabosil is a form of pwdered fiberglass used in construction and back filling you can mixs thick or thin think of it like flour get abag
    3you can use bondo set to cure real quick to hgold things in place...you can add bits of a paintstick with bondo put on abit let cure while you hold in desired location then glass and mat right over it think of it as a tack weld fill gap with thick cabosil
    4make floor and inner structure of waterproof wood then fiberglass weave right over incredibly strong and insulates..use tiger hair to hold wood arouind doors rear window etc.scuff body in areas first
    will need a sledge hammer to remove (better than steel) make a metal floor pan on top of frame drop finished body wth matted wood floor on top of it I did one with alouvered floor pan looked bitchin
    5 donot bury mat in resin the mat will wick the resin mop up puddles with ascrap of mat
    resin by itself will have no strength
    6 trim your almost cured fiberglass edges while GREEN with a sharp razor blade knife avoid grinding
    7fiberglass dust is explosive
    8 you can make thin sheets of fiberglass to make panels(firewall) using a pane of glass make cardboard template of shape you need trace with marker to glass lay out mat and resin cut to rmplate shape while soft(almost cured) green cutting let cure hold sheets i n place using step 3
    9 if you must use metal only certain resins will permantly stick to it (EPOXY $$$$)
