[Thrust]

[Thrust]

skuze me 65

[ROKKET]

Take pictures alot of them

[Thrust]

yeah man, my dad has the camera batteries charged. can get a few hundred in one go. maybe get some gasser references for the car request forum. I want to give some examples of funny cars to show how easy the mods are. the rails i would be willing to model myself if I can get some time. I am currently salary so that is tough.

[ROKKET]

i am thinking more about the old gasser cars than floppers or rails , reason #1 its still a regular car and could be implimented in game and used to free roam cruise ,,,where a rail or a old school flopper funny car couldn't in reality

[Ayce]

Yep, gotta be road legal, more or less. no "special" rigs. ;)

[Thrust]

I will post the road capable modded ones for the purpose of examples for in game usage. the rails are mostly lowriders in the streetability part. most of these elder cars had some higher ride height to say the least. Ill use the photos as examples of this.

[ROKKET]

ok thrust its now tuesday where is my old school draggers pics?? just teasing ya man i love the old school altered wheel base and straight axle cars of the 50's and 60's even built a 55 210 sedan my self in the late 80's to roam whitteir blvd ,,but minute they seen that dual carbed 502 and cut outs and wheelie bars nobody would race me ,,,mmm coulda had to do with the twin nos bottles in the back seat though

[Thrust]

yeah, the pictures are still on the camera, my dad hasnt emailed them to me yet. we got some video of the "Suicide King" running too. some photos of the "Outlaw" big daddy Roth replica. only one truly altered wheelbase. they were kind of rare before 65

[Thrust]

nice olds motor in first one with the qaud stromberg 97 ,,probably a gragar intake manifold

duece is sweet so is the studebaker and the vette (poncho behind vette too)

and ooooooooooo that henry J is nice also

great pics thrust

[Thrust]

we saw that Pontiac Run, was really something, the Deuces wild is my take and the rest are by my dad, im not advertising but he sells prints at Trylights.com. the Sucide King is a new build believe it or not. I think you are right about the intake on the "Outlaw". was completely fabricated car in its day. My dad knew that it was first called "Excaliber" for the sword handle it has for a shifter.

[ROKKET]

sword handle shifter? ah then your dad would be right if its a RE-STORED car , that could be big daddy Roth's EXCALIBUR featured in a couple hot rod and street rod mags in the 60's and again in the 70's when it was restored , should be a lassale tranny in it too "caddilacs had them in the 40's and early 50's"

[Thrust]

the real Outlaw is probably in a museum, maybe Daryll Starbird's. we think its a replica since this was not a car show per se. There a number of replicas, Outlaw was the name kept after there was a mispelling by Ed Roth himself.

[Thrust]

I am within driving range of the Daryll Starbird museum, I might be able to go next year. Shibby!

[ROKKET]

if you get a chance to come to so cal go see the peterson auto museum in LA ,there is another one at the junction cafe in junction texas only about 15 cars though

[Thrust]

the 50's cars place in Branson is closing its doors forever in November or October, Ill be going there too. I'm going to try for a Route 66 vacation next year, maybe I can fit that in(MO West to Arizona)

[ROKKET]

I'M GOING TO THE RENDEVOU 66 IN SAN BERNADINO THIS MONTH I'LL TAKE pICS AND MAKE AN ALBUM FOR ALL TO SEE :)

[Thrust]
