The Official Hot Rod Thread

[RustyHornet]

Not really, keeping her mostly stock though Classic Inlines has a nice aluminum head and intake kit (Mine has the one piece intake/head combo), since the Aussie Falcon 250-2V heads are almost impossible to find anymore... 302 was an optional factory motor, but I want to keep what she's got... unless I hit the lottery...

Cool. I'm a fan of inlines.

Look at the front hubs.

Not the best pics to see the hubs but they kinda look like the could be wide 5 hubs. They can be bolted onto a front spindle or a floater housing.

Don't know if I would classify it as a "hot rod", but it is chipped to 520HP and 550lbft of torque.

That car is built to go fast around corners. I saw the build documented in a car mag (Hot-Rod...???) and it is a serious piece.

Happy New Year's hot rodders. May your year be filled with happiness, rust free sheet metal, and smokey burnouts.

I love the 300 I-6 from Ford. Dang near indestructible. I've see where they are putting GM LS heads (yep. Take 2 V8 heads, cut and weld them together) on them.

So $10k for a car that might be worth $18k if really nicely restored after spending $30-40k to get it there or about $7500 in nice original driver shape.

Is that a SB Chevy in there

Yes it is.... Sinners.

 

[Brad69]

I would go about $6500 on Chevelle if it has no major rust issues just based on reselling popularity.

The lemans is a turd bad colors SBC etc. I would buy at like $2500 or less if it had zero rust!

Tri five chevys are losing value fast the guys who thought they were cool are getting to old to buy em.

Here are a few that are a much better value

The highlights would be the 428 galaxy that would be worth a few $$ easy and the lemans looks like a great value
