[T Bell]

just awesome. I thought I remember a post with you saying you had your mufflers on, right? That doesn't sound like mufflers to me. If they are, what kind? :woot:

[Garage Dog 65]

Your neighbors must LOVE you! :lol:


Scott, you can move in next door to me any time man !

[68protouring454]

sounds good, but i do not think there are any tailpipes which help it sound so nasty!! cool:thumbsup:

[Beegs]

Scott, you can move in next door to me any time man !

A hotrod neighborhood would be cool!

Everytime I start my car my neighbor's kid craps his pants. :lol: He thinks it's thunder! :rofl:

[Mean 69]

Great job, it's so cool to hear them run for the first few times.

Scott, which cam did you go with? I know Katech has several grinds, curious to hear which one you went with. Same as Stielow's car? If so, what are your driving impressions, etc?

Getting closer!

[slck6t9]

HOLY CRAP Scott that things sounds wicked. :thumbsup: So when does it get torn apart again for paint?

[rwhite692]

A good day indeed!

[57hemicuda]

That thing sounds great,I don't know how you kept from flogging the crap out of the thing,making some new friends in the neighborhood.LOL. Ron

[olds87]

Nice. I hope your neighbors was cool about it.

[XcYZ]

It has exhaust, a set of Spintech mufflers, and as Jake noted, there's no tailpipes. Other than no glass or front clip, it was no big deal driving it a couple hundred feet around the corner - nothing that would make any of the neighbors mad.

[Stuart Adams]

Sounds perfect. Congrats :thumbsup:

[caper150]

Man that thing sounds AWESOME, I hope to see it around someday soon.:thumbsup:

[silver63c10]

Dear lord that thing sounds sweet..I was waiting for just one little romp but I didn't get it :( Beautiful car even with the front end off!

Are you running an x-pipe or anything on it? My plan is oval tubing and SpinTechs, dumping into a wide slash cut in front of the rear tires. I'm kinda thinking (hoping) an x-pipe will help dull the roar a little bit :lol:

[awr68]

Congrats!! :thumbsup: Atleast you got to drive yours before paint!

[Rybar]

Holy F**ken crap that things sounds insane for having mufflers on it. :hail: Sounds more like open headers :yes:

Love it Scott your car is amazing, and it's going to be one of the nicest 69's built in my eyes! :thumbsup:

I think we need to meet up with you for a :cheers:

[Rick Dorion]

Sweet :)

Started my day off fine!

[tndude]

Whoa...very nice Scott. :thumbsup:

[Sales@Dutchboys]

Awsome Scott!

Not much longer and you'll be tearing up the track!

Paul

[jannes_z-28]

Great Scott!! :thumbsup:

That is always a great moment in a project. And as many have said before me, it really sounds brute. Must be awesome when you can drive it for real.

Jan

[V8TV]

Wow, that's killer! So much for you sneaking out at night!

[XcYZ]

It's not that loud, I think the mic on the MiniDV just did a good job picking up the sound. In the 2nd part of the video, you can hear the road noise (tires and gravel) as I start to roll. Darrell (Bouncer) and I could have a normal conversation in the garage while the car was idling.

But, with that said, I'm not putting tailpipes on the car until the car is basically finished I'm totally satisfied with how it sounds not only at idle, but also at WOT. I could always end up changing mufflers. :)

[markss28]

I think every one should get out their cameras and tape the best burnout/ or donut they can do just for giggles and the wow factor.

[postino]

Hey Scott, which Spintechs are you running?

[XcYZ]

They are Spintech sportsman street mufflers.

[postino]

Right on. Thanks. It sounds fantastic!

[WicKeD_SS]

That car sounds WicKeD!!! Like a beast waking up!! congrats!!! :woot:

[jeff hanson]

Sounds great Scott. Gonna suck to take it all apart and not here it again for a while. Oh well, gotta do it. Just keep listening to the video for motivation!:thumbsup:

[XcYZ]

I can't wait to see yours, Jeff. Will it be done in time for WDC?

[slenning]

Sounds great Scott, and somewhat familiar:yes: I've got mine running thru Magnaflows without tailpipes right now. Tried to get a video up but I just realized the only thing I suck at worse than photography is video.

[murtah]

Congrats Scott, sounds awesome. How much time will she be doing in paint prison?

[Taylor1969]

What color red is that? It looks like viper red, but i wanted to be sure.

Thanks,
Chris

[XcYZ]

Hi Jim, good to hear from you. :) Kurt thought it would be about a 4 month job. You never know, but I'm optomistic.

It's not viper red. ;)

[Steve Chryssos]

Awesome! The wheels look great in motion. Screw the paint job. How can you resist the urge to put it together for now and just drive?

[XcYZ]

Thanks Steve. I know, it really wouldn't take much to put it back together and drive it, but I've been working on it so long now that I don't want to cut any corners now. :)

[Autokraft]

Sounds cool Scott:thumbsup:

[Steve Chryssos]

Thanks Steve. I know, it really wouldn't take much to put it back together and drive it, but I've been working on it so long now that I don't want to cut any corners now. :)

You have way more discipline than I do.

[Taylor1969]

Hi Jim, good to hear from you. :) Kurt thought it would be about a 4 month job. You never know, but I'm optomistic.

It's not viper red. ;)

Do you not want to share the color? :(
