well as some of you have seen on the WTB section. I will be building my 2 year a protouring car of his own. here is what I got to start with. planning on using go kart fat wheels , build a frame so it will sit low. need a cool seat who knows maybe a non working steering wheel as I will pulling the little guy around at the swap meets. for sure SS exhaust.
hope to find some cool stuff at long beach swap meet this up coming sunday.
if any one has any cool/trick parts you dont need and I can incorporate please Pm me.http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff363/frankv11/photo2_zpsfa76fe94.jpg (http://s1232.photobucket.com/user/frankv11/media/photo2_zpsfa76fe94.jpg.html)

the plan is not to get to out of hand with this project hope I can stick to that.http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff363/frankv11/photo3_zpse31724b3.jpg (http://s1232.photobucket.com/user/frankv11/media/photo3_zpse31724b3.jpg.html)

The power to weight ratio in that thing could be off the charts. Just think about it.

I vote to leave the patina Frank but give it a modern drivertrain. Make sure it stops and handles too :D :thumbsup:

definitely getting dropped, the roll bar is back yard exercise , that never gets used.

I'd make a gasser out of it. Keep the patina, and keep the front end high. I was looking for a wagon at the LB swap meet the other weekend. didn't get one, as folks wanted too much for theirs, and I'll make a gasser out of that.

when I get one...
