Trying to figure out how i want to spend Pass Time's Money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting a quote on an all black paint job? This will probably be my fist move.

watahyahknow · 05-22-2011, 07:21 PM

the colour on youre avatar actually starting to grow on me , maybe you could do a gunmetal grey metallic instead of a straight black

djracer · 05-22-2011, 10:42 PM

The first dragtruck I ever saw that made me want a 67-72 chevy dragtruck was black and I have gotta go black. I may add graphics later.

djracer · 06-07-2011, 11:13 PM

I am trying to get my truck to the chassis shop for a few minor things before going to the paint shop. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Chassis Shop. Paint Shop. Say it ain't so.........I can't wait to see it at the track again. Just got all my front suspension back in mine last night. I have to swap out converters, and finish some rear suspension changes, then off to test!! Paul Baxter

Sweet. We will have similar combos so we will have to compare notes. I'm just a little scared of the little tire you are gonna run. I know it can be done I'm just not that good on the chassis stuff.

The little tire stuff is what I learned on. I actually have a problem getting too agressive on the big tires with chassis set up, and run the tire over. Then I gotta back off, and lighten the hit a little. The Monte Carlo will go out past 330' still riding the wheelie bars on both systems as it sits now. It happened in Montgomery last year when I screwed up bracket racing. I hope to get it all lined out soon, then maybe we can match race!! Paul

softballnrd27 · 06-08-2011, 01:09 PM

I figured I would post this over here instead in the tire thread, but your truck is one of the ones I draw inspiration from(no homo). Your pass time run was awesome. There are alot of fast trucks on here and yours got me hooked to really make mine fast(er). That and wanting beat a friend's Malibu, bc he constantly talks $*&^ and i would love to beat him just once!! He is running 11.3 on 100-shot and he has a 150 pill he has yet to try out. His car is sweet as hell though 79 nice 454 w/tremec 5spd and 9". His car is a blast to drive!!

I don't know much about your combo but pm me what you are running and i'll see if I can help.

djracer · 07-06-2011, 09:15 AM

I got the truck back to a rolling state last night and I should get it to the Chassis Shop this weekend. I am gonna pick up my convertor this weekend and I hope to start putting the motor in Cades Truck if all goes well.

djracer · 07-13-2011, 11:50 PM

New Anti Roll Bar!

softballnrd27 · 07-14-2011, 01:39 PM

Where did you get that one? I was thinking of adding one of the splined ones from S&W

watahyahknow · 07-14-2011, 04:37 PM

seem a nice simple one a while back it was just a piece of roundbar in a piece of pipe that had mounting points for the frame
the roundbar has 2 flanges welded on the ends he just mounted another flange to that with bolts that had another piece of roundbar mounted on it sideways

the downmount to the rearaxle could slide over that piece of roundbar before clamping it down wish gave you unlimited options for sensitivity

its verry simple to put together needs verry little room between the chassis and the tire and most of the parts can be bought at a diy store or autostore

djracer · 07-14-2011, 09:27 PM

This one came from applied racing or ART. It is there middle one. It is actually pretty simple. You mount the tabs that hold the bearing blocks then slide the round stock in and weld your to it. It should be pretty light and pretty strong. I looked at the S&W piece also but their was more to the install and it was more expensive.

I got a box in today from S&W also. Pics to come a little later.

djracer · 07-14-2011, 10:45 PM

Actually I got two boxes from S&W but the main one I wanted was back ordered. Grrrrrr. When I ordered it they didn't say it was back ordered.

Rongway68 · 07-17-2011, 09:08 PM

How far Back has the motor been set?

djracer · 07-17-2011, 11:17 PM

The firewall is barely notched to clear mid plate.

C20-67_N_MO · 07-19-2011, 05:02 PM

WOW!

Just read the entire thread.

And it's great to read over what has happend to your truck over the years. Hoping you get it back running soon and enjoy it as well.

Any closer on getting it running?

djracer · 07-19-2011, 07:26 PM

Dang brother that was allot of reading. Its at the chassis shop then I plan to take it to the paint shop. It will probably be a spring debut. I'm trying to get my son's (Djjr) truck running by the end of next month.
