Well I had started this thread in “Paint booth and chop shop” but it just seems to make more sense here. Starting with a frame I picked up for $20. My plans are a pair of drum brake wheels with cream colored felt tires. The engine is a 66cc GT5, ported cylinder , coated piston with a shortened skirt, balanced crank and aluminum rod, Acme Labs clutch mod, single “boost bottle”, port matched intake, RSM billet head, Billet clutch actuator, and a few other things I really don’t want to talk about J. I’d love to take it to Death Race next year.

Thanks man! That really means a lot coming from you, I’m in love with your build and can’t wait to get started on my own serious boardtracker. Just need the time and to finish my current hotrod project. Great Great work by the way!

Go to spookytooth cycles.com, they put it on in Tucson/Bisbee and just looks like too much fun. I use to live in Gilbert, been thinking of moving back just to make it easier to go. Sound like a cool rod, I'm a big Sport coupe fan.
The head is a billet aluminum high compression head that Rock Solid Engines sells. I heard very good things about the performance gains so I figured I’d give it a swing.
That was the first street rod I ever built....a 28 Sport Coupe...drove it to the Western Nats a few times, The 5th Annual Nostalgia Nats....if you ever read Street rodder mag, my car was in there.383 stroker sb ran 12.2 on street tires...Sound like a cool rod, I'm a big Sport coupe fan.
Well new tires, wheels and handle bars. I also decided to put my last and middle name on the tank. my painter who takes care of all of my shop cars has some big plans for the tank (gold leaf, 2 tone and Harley type lettering) Should be done early next year.
