CrazyDavey Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 it might have broke but it looked good doing it. Here's some new looks for the old hos new glass hood.... motors new look finally got the roll bar pads Quote
502ci Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Looks good... I like the padding and new hood, are you running an open carb or is there a filter of some sort on the hood cowl? Quote
Chevyss Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Dave, love the look of the hood. What brand?? Still working on the roll cage project. Quote
MADMAC Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Looking good Dave! (I have the same questions as Bill.) Quote
CrazyDavey Posted January 2, 2010 Author Posted January 2, 2010 Thanks everyone, it's simple but still runs pretty good. Allan, thanks..hopefully won't have to wait too long....everything I need is local Bill/Mac, there is a micro screen that keeps the big stuff out but I do not run a filter at the track. Royce, the hood is made by Unlimited Products out of Hesperia, Ca. about 40 miles from me. Just had to play around with the hinges, it fit very well, did not have to modify it.....Davey Quote
Jared Richey Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Yes Very nice. When I first took my air cleaner off it picked me up a hole .1 in the 1/8 mile. Big difference. Dave, what you break? I must have missed something. lol Quote
CrazyDavey Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 Jared, check out my "it's making more power" post in General forum... Quote
Andy's Auto Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Dang, Davey, looks awesome. I take you will be buried in that car.LOL. A very clean look. Andy Quote
CrazyDavey Posted January 4, 2010 Author Posted January 4, 2010 thanks Andy, coming from someone who builds a lot of stuff I appreciate the comment. I don't know about being buried in it though, my wife will probably want to keep running it... Davey Quote
Monteman1971 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Looks great!!! The hood looks like it conforms perfect.... Where did the roll bar covers come from...real nice.... Steve Quote

Steve Thanks Steve, just trying to keep up with you!! The hood fit really pretty good, just played with the hinges. The roll bar pads were made by a local shop I use. They just took measurements, matched the interior, put padding on it and made them with zippers. I thought it would be something a little different...Crazy Davey Quote
wallaby Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Geez...couldn't you just get your roll bar padding at Home Depot like everyone else? That was good money that could have gone towards engine parts. Quote

Mike 57 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks Dave, You just gave me a great idea for a new look, roll bar padding held on with heat tape! Did you get your drive shaft? Quote
CrazyDavey Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 I've seen it Mike and it will be in tomorrow. Sure looks better than that tooth pick I had before... ...forged yokes and 1350 joints... Davey Quote
