Re: Project Spongebob Square Body

Going poverty...paint the bumpers white. I say get a set of 20" aluminum wheels and spray them with acid to dull them up..it would match better than polished 22"s that my opinon.. I dig the idea though even with shiney wheels..

Subscribed. I may be getting an 86 Silverado soon, and I was planning on buying front and rear dropmembers. I am officially in the zone!

Re: Project Spongebob Square Body

Been slowly getting the suspension parts built. It will happen really quick, AFTER I get all the parts accumulated.

I know your wanting to trade product, but have you seen the deal that Centerline has on the RF series - ROTARY? They have them in the overstock department for 189.00 each. LINK

Paint the centers white to match the bumpers and call it good...

I saw a 1st gen ranger at mcdonalds today that had a set of steelies that looked like this, they looked to be 20's and they had low profile-ish tires on them, the look was awesome. I personally have never seen a set of 20inch steelies exept on military vehicles lol.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Project Spongebob Square Body

I don't know why I never saw this build before but I like it. I think I would have named it MusTurd if it was mine. Gonna be a cool driver for sure.

Re: Project Spongebob Square Body

It has been 4 months since Nathan last posted on this build. I wonder if he has all his parts built yet?

I wish it was on the ground already! Hadn't had the time I had hoped for. I will be draggin it back out of the corner eventually so I can finish up the new 73-87 trailing arm rear kit that I have been working on. Rounded up a set of centerline smoothies 20s and 22s.
