Project 64 Chevy

[harwood39]

Oh, and the turck and the mustang will be racing each other next spring. My teahcer loved it when i braught up the idea of a build off. Even tho the truck isnt getting built at the shop in school due to space issues.

Also, no flamming on how i am switching projects, i have had this truck for almost 8 years.

BTW: I am going to need as many helping hands as possible to get this done by spring.

i have a straight frame for a 64 pickup just liuke that i also have some other parts aswell if you need my da junked his at the mid of last yr and i kept as much as i could out of it
yours looks good too

[harwood39]

i dont know harwood 5.0's are bolt on beauties. i would still love to see this

[harwood39]

also, i have a rust free cab from AZ that needs to be put onto a frame and i dont really want to take the time to swap it onto a twisted frame. It would be cool to find a short box frame tho.

but they are hoping it will even run 13's. ive seen trucks like mine with 327's run low 12's high 11's with a cam, carb, itake mani, and headers, just basic shit. so this thing will be fast.

hahah did you say 12's? good luck!!!! Ibet it weighs 5,000lbs you will need about $10,000 to make it run 12's

[harwood39]

truck weighs just over 3800, i will get the exact weight later tonight.

Just take the box off.

[harwood39]

actually, all the wood will be gone and tin or aluminum will be there, no carpet or anything, just enough stuff to make it go, fiberglass fenders and hood possibly.

I hope your dad has lots of money.

[harwood39]

its not goin to be too much
parts for this thing ar cheaper than parts for my honda....now thats sad....i have many catalogues and have come to the conclusion, all wiring is 500, and the body parts and rubber seals are goin to be the most expensive parts besides tinning the bed. and its a SBC so motor parts are cheap.

dumb question here, but what was the other project you are setting aside for this?

i am a chevy kinda guy but as was said fox body stangs can be made quick for little money.
i would think if you kept the weight to a minumum, set the suspension up right and were able to hook it would be a drivers race.

#1 issue I don't think he'll know enough about to overcome.

[musthavemuzk]

the only thing i know about this is that i read about it alot and many swear it helps to have it set up right to improve launch and 60' times and in the end the final et.

Here's some inspiration. This is from New Rockford here. The owner and his brother fix up old cars/trucks as a hobby. As you can see, by the meats on the back, this truck does have some serious nuts.

That truck is tits.

[harwood39]

damn thats a nice truck. thats basiccaly how i want mine except no chrome side trim and it is probably going to be candy purple.
