1934 Dodge. The Stewart mini van

i see the wrenches are doing a good job holding the header up. r u welding the wrenches on there.

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!
other than my nice white header paint that boiled off the headers in the first few minutes

About time its running again,I think its been down longer then my 37. Jeff

It will be a while. I still have to break the engine in. I'll be taking it easy on her for a while.

I drove her around the block today. I still needed to do some wiring work so I did it in front of the house. Even though I only drove it around the block it was fun to see people holding their hands over their ears as I idled by. lol

I was bored and I needed to break up the black on the hot rod. I was gonna run flames but I figured something easy 'cause they will be taken off when I mess with the body work again. Two days of prep and only the best paint was sprayed.

I dig the scallops!

Best paint? House of Color? nope. More like Home Depot's Hardware Store.lol
Each side took me about and hour to tape up, no prep work other than to wipe off the mud off, spray bomb it and outline it in white.


I'm no pinstriper but the white lines make it stand off the car..

I had Car X bend some pipes and add some cherrybombs to the car. I drove in with an open header hot rod and came out with a rusty Pinto sounding exhaust. $150.00 for two bends and I already had the mufflers. I made it about 5 blocks before the hanger weld broke loose. I was going to take it back but I figured if they couldn't do a better job than that I'd just weld it myself. I could put in some tunes now and hear them over the pipes!
Here is Aryan and his friend from down the street.

With the Rabbit Hash Cruise coming up tomorrow I went out in the garage to make me a hood. Everyone is freaking out over the rain and I figured it would stink to get my dizzy wet and be off on the side of the road. I thought about it for a while and my style of hot rod is no fenders or hood stripped to the bone, light and fast rod. I don't want a hood. how do I keep the rain out of the dizzy? I looked around and seen my Rt. 66 sign hanging on the wall. A little grinding, couple holes drilled and stuck in the break to give it a bend was good enough for a dizzy cover.

I also paint my breathers to match what little bit of checker board I had on the engine already.

Atta boy Reb. That's great. Really an improvment. Can't wait to see it in person. Etc, Etc..........you know the rest

The one thing I never liked was the jump ramp rearend of the car. I never change those ugly taillights because I know I was going to do something crazy if I kept it.


Too late to turn back now.

Yea definitly one of those points were there is no turning back

You are going to french those taillights into the new panel right?
