Re: "Rice Rocket'

I dunno about the accelerator nate, I put it in there from a 72. Its not perfect I know. I ALMOST put the rod style back on today temporarily until I get a good idea and make it how I want.

Yeah, the cab is getting lots of licence plates next time im at the junkyard and can remember lots of licence plates and some kind of glue and screws.

Re: "Rice Rocket'

patched about 1/3 of my floor today. Went for the ratrod look (didnt wanna use nice scrap aluminum/steel) so i used what I found in the barn on the wall and screwed it down).

Pictures later, im going to patch/glue up under the dash so it doesnt leak (i have rust holes and it pours on my feet/e brake etc etc).

Think ima use some leftover gutter sealer from the gutter job a few weeks ago if its not dried out yet. I wanna stay warm this winter LOL

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Pics is good.

When I was a kid we had lots of drive-in movies around. At intermission, people who had spotlights would aim them at the blank screen and move the spot of light rapidly. We liked to call them "the fights" because there were usually several spots on the screen and they seemed to be battling one another. Sometimes this was far better entertainment than the movie that was being shown.

Just a suggested use for yours assuming you can find a drive-in nowadays. haha
