Re: For your viewing pleasure
Holy crap its Lou sweet huge fan of the show (specifically your work). Sad to see you go. I really enjoyed that show. I don't know, how it will be the same. Seems like almost everyone is leaving the Powerblock. Only Joe and Ian will be around that is nuts the rest of the guys that started all of those shows will be gone. Your stuff was one of the main reasons I watched. I don't know If I will watch after Jessi leaves.

Re: For your viewing pleasure
I planned on posting these the other day but I spaced it in the last couple of pictures. I made that tool from some pointers form toe in toe out gauge and a piece of conduit. To measure the wheel base by myself. I plan on installing the engine in the morning.

Re: For your viewing pleasure

One question for ya though... Whatsa going to do w/that 67-70 long wheel base Chevy Van in the back ground of pic #2??? I love those old Vans, I had a 69 window van like the one in the pic that was lowered a little w/a BBC/400turbo, Nova rearend running 8's in the front & 10's inside the rear wheelwells. That damn thing was funnn to drive....joe |
Re: For your viewing pleasure
Man do I feel the love in here...........:waah:
Liz....... Thanks for the upgrade:) Loooouuuuu..... I know you are new to all of this stuff but you may want to check your pinion angle :smoke: |
Re: For your viewing pleasure
WOW, missed this thread. Welcome Lou. Nice to have another squarebody guy here! Gonna miss you on Musclecar, you made the show.
What about the 82 Burb I heard you talking about doing something with? Tony, his pinion angle is fine, it the frame jig that needs leveling, just needs to mount in on the wall.... :D |
Re: For your viewing pleasure
ohhh ........ I see it now........ :uhmk:
|
Re: For your viewing pleasure
Pinion angle looks great......or maybe too much bourbon for 1 nite.....the ugly gal across the street is startin to look good (YIKES!) Any hoot, you guys are too damn funny!;) crazyL

Re: For your viewing pleasure
5 or 6 u joints and the pinion angle won't be a problem maybe a couple steady bearings too. Just don't stand on it when you leave the lights. :lol:

Re: For your viewing pleasure
Man Tony you didn't get the memo driveshafts are OUT slinkies are in no need to worry about Pinion Angles. Pinion Angle We don't need no stinking Pinion Angle.
http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/IMG_1525.jpg Anyway I hung the shocks today I'll mount the four bar and then mount the shocks to the rearend. Tony you diggin on those brackets http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/IMG_1542.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/IMG_1539.jpg Oh yeah check out the LeMans Brent AKA ThE Skinny Guy sent me a couple of pics. I know Its a car but it is cool. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/P1020817.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/P1020814.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...U/P1020826.jpg |
Re: For your viewing pleasure
wow that Lemans is bad @$$. To bad you could not be there to pay it off. I saw a 66 Lemans 2 weeks ago and knew what year it was because of that car. Best of luck in your ventures. That truck is gonna be bad @$$ as well.
|
Re: For your viewing pleasure
Lou, I love the LeMans. Of course, it probably has something to do with the fact that I grew up with a 67 GTO under the carport. Your frame is looking good as well.

Re: For your viewing pleasure
Lou, What is up with the hood line on the Lemans? Is it bowed up at the front or is that just the angle. SWEET ride though! Loved the work you did on it...
|
Re: For your viewing pleasure
Congrats on moving onto bigger and better things Lou. Life's too short to waste time. What's going between the rails? Something sweet no doubt. The frame looks really nice, you have some amazing metalworking skills.
On a side note, it seems like your personailty would mesh really well with that of Stacey David's, ever think about making an apperance on his show? |
Re: For your viewing pleasure
Stacey David...laidback stoner hippie
Lou Santiago...lunatic ex-military rocker Sounds like oil and vinegar? :lol: |
