Re: Any other projects in your garage?

This is my last project: 27 Model T Ford Roadster Pickup. Did it all myself, except for paint and bodywork. '32 rails bobbed and narrowed, custom rear triangulated 4-bar, rear air bags, front transverse monoleaf, 5.0 HO roller motor, 4-speed tranny, 9 inch rear with 4:11's, bias ply rubber with A/R Salt Flat Special wheels, red-oxide over epoxy primer.

It's a ton of fun and yes it's done... some people get it, some don't. Man, if I had a dime for everybody that says "what color you gonna paint it" -or- "nice rat rod".

Re: Any other projects in your garage?

I always mess around with minitrucks, I built this in college, the fuel injection was my senior engineering design project



After graduation I traded it for a bug and then the bug for this



which soon looked like this:




I traded it off for a Chevy Colorado though recently.

I am also into old Yamaha YSR50 bikes, I have three in varying condition.

my wifes



the parts bike



and I guess I dont have a recent picture of mine.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?



Someday, it will receive a healthy 283 in the backseat.... I'd love to auto-x it someday.

My DD is a '97 Toyota Celica, just doing little mods to it every now and then. When the OG drivetrain decides to go, it will be swapped for something a little more lively... maybe a 3sgte or 4agze or something. I'd like to make a reliable little weekend auto-xer out of it too.
