Looks great sits real nice, good stance.

Yea 15 or so years ago when i put the front end in all the knuckles were pretty tight and it has worked well until now things are showing their age.I guess i'll have to pull it apart and do some spline counting and see what i can cobble together. P.S Johnny i think one of the big differences with th...

Pics would help. The Volare clipped truck I had, that I sold to Dean, had a Chrysler steering shaft out of the PS box with a rag joint. That, I had to redrill to match the Ford rag joint end of a '67 column. so it went Chrysler PS box , Chrysler steering shaft, with rag joint to rag joint end of a ...

Hey guys looking for some ideas on what to use for a steering shaft? I have been useing a sloppy home built one but it's time to do it right.
It's a 1964, with a 1973 150 4x4 colum and the Crysler box. The 73 colum uses the same u joint from 73-79 Any help would be great,Thanks.

I smeared bondo all over Aggie a few years ago. I was pretty much disappointed at the porous bubbly appearance after you squirt some primer over it. You look close and you can see a texture variance on every spot I used it. And it's soft. If you hit something that would ordinarily make a tiny paint...

I have slappers on mine and they work great just have to set them up so their real close to the spring and dont hang down all dorky like. the old truck actually pulled a wheel up a couple inches at the track last summer!

Thanks for feedback, i'm kind of kicking around manual steering also, but i'm a little concerned obut my wife having a hard time with it. Unless she's just a teeny tiny, petite type woman, she can learn to drive it. Both my old '65 and the '66 I have now are manual steering -- I'm not a "stron...

I have a 460 Van 90 degree filter adapter on mine (forgot to mention that) will fit a small block too just take out the nipple in the block that the filter screws onto.Don't really like the relocator kits,too many hoses to fail and clutter things up. I was told that you can also use a adapter housin...

Thanks for feedback, i'm kind of kicking around manual steering also, but i'm a little concerned obut my wife having a hard time with it. Since i'm going with a small block maybe it won't be quite as bad. I also wondered about trying to adapt a rack and pinion to it. Been away from the computer for...

I'm not 100% sure with a straight axle but i use 460 headers for a 79 150 2wd with my volare front clip which doesn't have alot of room.They sweep back quite tight towards the firewall and tuck in real nice to the engine.I'll have to dig around a bit for pics.

Just watched video for the 20th time, that is one sweet truck you have there , just the way i'm doing mine. How do you like the volare frontend? Just put one under mine. Cool glad you liked the vid.The Volare front has it's good and bad points.I like the fact that you still retain the stock front f...

thats sort of what I was getting at, We race in a ET Bracket style Event where DOT slicks only are allowed. or any DOT tire for that matter, Full slicks only allowed in other ET bracket classes but this one specifically designates the DOT only. I was curious as to how your Track conducted itself co...

just out of curiousity what class do you have to enter with them hoosiers? they dont like us using anything but DOT Slicks or Street Radials in any of the street classes up here Haha funny you should say that.Here it's frowned upon if you have regular radials on the vehicle(they tear the rubber off...

Ahh heck heres a couple mor and one from back in 1991 when i was 17

how soft is the rubber on those hoosiers? Im looking for a FAT ass tire that I can still get some decent miles out of and not have to replace as fast as say the hoosier street slicks that I used to run on my 71 camaro... they didnt last for squat. Still think my best choice is the mickey thompson s...

Thanks for the nice welcome.Seems the big Question is about the battery.I mounted it to the frame useing the stock battery tray and a marine box,there is a trap door to access it in the box floor.the box floor is fully carpeted so you dont see it or the door for the rear fuel cell.Now for the suspen...

Thanks Guys!!The fronts are 15x3.5 with 165/85/15 no name brand(can't remember right now) and the rears are 15x10 with 29x11 Hoosier DIRT tires
