Sweat, very cool. I've been contemplating a 23 T bucket for my next project with a 318 but I already have a 75 torino and really like the dodge A100 vans. Decisions decisions. Good luck looks like a lot of fun

That rod looks half as long as your bird does. Like what you did on the plate. Can you have it so it will be registered to the car?

Very cool stuff... please excuse my ignorance, if you've already answered this somewhere else... but are you going to convert to a manual trans in the Super-birdible ??, I haven't seen anything about that yet... Great helper, I wish I still had a good helper like that too...

:iamwithstupid: also if so.. are you going to do the tunnel hump, re-do all the carpeting, peddles, bell-crank & the proper console base etc. too ??, did I miss something ??, if so, what trans are you going with ??, 4 speed -5 speed -6 speed ??

yes starting thursday the 27th the tranny tunnel is getting cut out of the superbird and a viper six speed tranny is getting installed

no need for the offset stock mopar tranny hump but we do need to expand the size of the tunnel to fit the six speed

my buddy russ thinks i should make a door mirror out of the beat up charger gas cap

anyone else have another beat up one you dont need , i'll make two one for each side


thats all my pack ratted junk i picked out of the tons of stuff I just cant throw anything away so it will be repurposed to fit somewhere on the
rat rod

 

[Basket case]

hmmmmm...Cragar spinner caps......

 

[moparstuart]

yup they are beat up and pitted , but they will work great on the rat rod

i will use them as a radiator cap cover and a pcv breather cover on the valve cover breather

[snakeyes]

:icon_thumright::headbang:

 

[ianmont]

Very cool! The only thing I would change is skinny, tall tires on the rear and some skinnier tires for the front. Also, and I'm surprised nobody else mentioned this, paint the rad surround black! It looks a little odd being silver. Sweet ride though man!
