omg that thing is amazing, I love the primer yeah, it has always be cooler the primer, than the paint. Im also always for the suede look, and for the crude hot rods. they absolutely rule. nothing with more attitude than a rusty, primered, solid-red, white-pinnstripped flamed deuce coupé with a 354 hemi with 8 stroms in it (:

Cano

and shoot your friend and steal his gasser!! that thing cant be just sitting there

Im serious. there is nothing cooler than having a real-world, home-owner built hot rod that is just built to go fast and have fun. you can throw me the chicayne, and every 1000 hp skyline in the world, and I would dump them all in favor of a 70 year old rust bucket with primer, a halibrand quickchange, and 6 stomberg carburetors atop a flathead or 354 hemi.

Oh, Cano.


Have you ever seen Horsepower Tv?


They recently started up a 77' Nova packin a 572 in it. Ill see if I can find it.

 

[69Dodge_Charger]

Not recently, they've been doing it for a while. But all the cars on that show are project cars, meaning even though they may put a lot of stuff on it one day, twenty episodes from that one they may put more stuff on it again. For a while they were showing re-runs, but they've just started up with new episodes a few weeks ago.

First post in this thread - I can't believe I managed to miss it for a year. Well done Cano! Keep up the good work.

If anyone has already posted any of the pictures I put up, then sorry - my bad. I got as far as page 15 (tried page 16 but my 56k didn't like it much; I'll leave it loading overnight this evening)

My first contribution:

 

[Dark Skyline]

here are some pictures from the carshow I went to earlier:

these pictures are in 25% of their origanal size, if you want a bigger picture, pm me the picture you want bigger and tell me if you want the 50% or the 100% version.

 

[musclecarfan]

[musclecarfan]

[musclecarfan]

[musclecarfan]

[musclecarfan]

here the dash and seats .The dash is all stock.The seats are 86 lincoln front and back even the console fit ok.I made the deoor panels ans kick panels painted the inside .the body was done when i got it ,but as you can see its not perfect .But is fun as hell to drive .Oo and the paint 30 bucks a gallon at napa no worries about getting nicked or scratched at the store or wherever i go. Primer rules

 

[musclecarfan]

here the 63 nova .not a perfect car by far ,but runs like a bat outta hell. It has a 327 bored 30 over .202 heads that have been ported and polished,edelbrock torker 2 intake and an edelbrock 750 carb .tuned headers flowmaster mufflers.turbo 350 tranny with some work to make it hit harder . a 9 inch ford rear and centerline wheels

 

[musclecarfan]

ok and heres the coupe this is right after i got it .It was lowered 18 inches in front and 12 in the rear. It is a ex-gasser from the late 50's early 60's and soon to be back on the strip with my new partner in the project

 

[musclecarfan]

and here is my other 50 chevy that is original right now.it is in excellent shape.

 

[toyomatt84]

[Cano]

Yes ,I love the cars of the 50's. Im maybe selling the nova here soon. Not real fond of the body style.I found a 57 buick that im trying to do some dealing with right now . The black fleetline is going to get a new small block and a lowering job,Maybe a wild paint job with flames or scallops or both . But it will be in sued no shiny stuff for me .
