Slick 60's

Heres a shot of the new 63 grill for the uni.





And a shot of a really cool MII Install in a stude...



Garbz

Can't tell for sure but the Stude looks like a 60. In case you didn't know I got my nickname from the guys in the SDC years and years ago for my 59 Silver Hawk with Chevy running gear. Hawkrod

thats pretty clever

Here is a shot of the stude subframe before it is installed.



Pretty trick and the stude will have tubular A arms.

Garbz

Directionals will be in the bottom of the headlights, Just like Kids truck.

But in arizone front turns are optional... LOL In fact all turn signals are optional as no one around here uses them!

Garbz

hey garbz thats a dakota clip? very cool stude i also had a silver hawk
john

Nope a Custom MII built to accept the a arms or a arm brace backwards.

the frame width is similar to the MII cars and can be used, Steve consideres the Dakota to heavy for this application.

It will have some IC heavy tubular arms and a few other tricks.

IC builds some pretty radical MII units as long as they fit within the stock geometery.

I finally got thiss photo bucket thing figgured out so i will post up a pic of a dakota crossmember


Garbz

Heres one for ya see if you can tell what this is?

Its a Cord. Coffin nose Cord, the last gasp of Auburn/Duesenberg.... 1936/37 or so.
a Cord Hotrod? Those things are worth a mint stock. Some of them were blown.. they had like an aircraft engine and front wheel drive

Hey Garbz, When that frame is fitted to the Stude frame, do you fish plate it on the bottom or sides? Looks like it would need more support. Awesome piece of work. I'd be proud of it!

Love that grille idea. That's one of those mods that will have people scratchin' their heads thinkin "what's so diferent about this truck?".

Courtney made it along with the one on the car. Steve completely cad designed it in cyberspace using as many one piece parts as he could. pretty trick.

Is slips over and around and into the existing stude frame. The lower gussets and the bottom rail all intersect the stock stude stampings. If the car is not gone nest Saturday i can get a shot of the connection.

It blows your mind on the fabrication skill Steve has relative to making components.

Garbz

I like your grille mod, looks purty clean!

Say hi to Polacko for me (us), I miss him posting some of the neat things you guys were working on. Actually, now that you've gotten the pic thing figured out, now YOU can post the neat stuff!
But say hi to him anyway.

That Cord looks like it could be really cool when it's done.

I can vouch for that! , We started to think they used them to show where they came from!!!
Alan,

Shipping to my place can't be that much Dave.
I always wanted one of them grills since you started building the first one here in PA

Tim

by the way ---How's Junior healing?

Hey can I copy you? That is just too cool. I have 3 ok grils that I could make into one.

Looking good my freind!

Max you know they say copying is the greatest form of flattery...

Just send monthly royalty checks to.......Me!

I would like to do this with all the 61 through 64 grills.....

Tim see Wyatt i am pretty sure he got the last one i made before i moved.

Johnny
