Isaiah · 06-16-2016, 04:00 PM

Hello nice build was just had some questions about the roll cage and bracing you added like what spec cage is this going to be and would you be willing to make a kit like bend some bars and cut them to mimic what you have

Hello Isaiah, Thank you! I worked to the 25.3 SFI spec, but really don't want to install a funny car cage for street use. Maybe some day when it's tuned to go that fast I'll put it in. Sorry but really don't have the time to put a kit together... this project is just a hobby. My day job leaves me little time as it is to work on it.

Isaiah · 06-17-2016, 02:54 PM

That's unfortunate I can't find anything for my truck I have been following your build to the t I have the same frame setup etc only thing different Is my motor and transmission I have a 632 ci nelson racing 2500hp motor and a Lenco 4 speed or three I still have to decide

forestb · 06-17-2016, 04:32 PM

MAN ALIVE!!!! if this hole truck thing doesn't work out you could seriously have a career building jungle jyms.

61_FL_Apache · 07-12-2016, 07:31 PM

Gary, I read that as you plan on going 7.49 or faster? NICE!! Cant wait for the track videos!

mud.man.rj · 07-13-2016, 12:43 AM

Well he is set up for 7.49 and quicker anyway..
We can a similar setup for mud drag classes with out trucks, almost identical.
Thanks, a video is a ways off but sure will be nice to see someday.

Pretty much sums it up at this point... we'll put that LS power to it and see what happens.

Anything else happen on this build? Is it done? I'm hanging by a thread here!!! Hahaha. Beautiful truck. What materials did you use for your frame rails? I'm gathering parts for my 62 grudge/pro street build as I'm typing.

61_FL_Apache · 12-28-2016, 12:31 PM

I enjoy this build too!

Happy Holidays Gary!

Thank you... been a busy few months at work and home so the project progress has stalled a bit. I have been able to do some work on it and will post some picks this weekend.

The rectangular pieces are 1/8 X 2 X 6. The flat stock for boxing the frame rails is 1/8 also.

WOW! You have some MAD fabrication skills! That looks BAD A$$$$ and looking forward to seeing it lighting up the rear tires.

Well as mentioned... still busy as hell but here's some progress. Early on I was talked into running a set of 315 Mickey Thompson tires. Original plan was big tire! Reminder Gary... don't change your plans! Had to shorten the rear end again to go big tire.

Ran the two forward down bars and started mocking up the radiator mount. Also working on fabbing up two side tanks... one for methanol or race fuel and the other for pump gas. Here's some pics

Grizz1963 · 02-24-2017, 03:17 AM

Gary, I have nothing to add except massive admiration.

Your build is in such a different world.

Tanks look lovely.

Well... up with the birds! Here's some update pics of the fuel hat design. Laid out the o'ring sealed electric insulators and inserted one of them into the hat, also added the tank seal o'ring groove and lightened the hat a bit more... good to go!

aggie91 · 01-09-2017, 10:23 AM

WooHoo!

**66ChevyMax** · 01-09-2017, 02:01 PM

Just amazing work, looks so cool just sitting there, well done.

tinydb84 · 01-09-2017, 05:30 PM

61_FL_Apache · 01-09-2017, 07:05 PM
