That things got more bars than the county jail..... Which is where I'd reside if I had something like that...

 

[plumwagon]

Yeah, it’s like an adult jungle gym.

I agree, Beautiful build. Christmas night is always special in County lock up. Domino's Pizza & Movie night. LOL

Cage just about complete, now a week of welding it all up. Tin work will begin on Monday. Bottom of the 4 link even has pro jack mounts.

This car is crying for a boosted 2nd gen HEMI!!

 

[Johnpat]

Really going to be cool if you can drive it on the streets

 

[plumwagon]

Johnpat not a question it will happen, the entire cage had been built around running exhaust through the cage because it will be a street car. Hemi-itis love the 2nd gen blown hemi idea. I have the built Hellcat motor that will probably be the first motor it gets. The firewall is going to be angled so it will easily accept twin turbos, that will prob be 2nd motor.

Few more pics, final welding almost completed with mid plate added. Sheet metal, anti roll-bar and tubs will be started by next week. It’s looking really good, crappy photos don’t do it justice.

Looking awesome. Wait until you have to paint it all.... I had a local paint shop mix my factory color paint in aerosol cans, so I did have to climb around the inside with an air hose. Prime, paint and clear coat took me all weekend. Mine is also street driven. Getting older makes the cage a little more difficult Getting in and out. Lol.

 

[Budnicks]

like a double rail pro-mod chassis

very nice, freaken' awesome

can't wait to see & hear it run

where in California are you ?
just curious
the background looks like rural/farmland valley area

thanks for sharing
some serious talent & fab skills there

 

[plumwagon]

Thanks Budnicks and 6PKRTSE. The whole chassis will be powder coated so no climbing around with a paint gun. 55 inch pro mod wheel tubs being put in now, Nathan also hand fabricated a baffled 12.5 gallon fuel cell to sit rear rails.

Plum, an amazing project. Fantastic craftsmanship.

 

[doublekrossd]

So cool! I've always dreamed of something like this as a 66 is by far my favorite car.

 

[plumwagon]

Little more progress. Body is permanently mounted to cage. Wheel tubs almost finished, they took a lot of tin (They are each 2ft wide by 5ft long) rear tin and firewall started. Floors are made just not welded yet. Coming along, just takes a lot of time

looking good
