Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
Looking at the pics of the shocks and they look awesome, but the springs look way too heavy. Also if you needed a spring compressor to fit them on the shock, I'm sure you have too much spring. My guess would be around an 80 lb rating, maybe less. CN

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
We had a body fitting, cowl fitting, and dash panel building morning. All still in rough draft form, yet, serious progress with "Dolly," Stay tuned for more updates soon.

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
Our "Dolly" project continues to make good forward progress. We are closing in on the small items and checking them off the list.
We plan to fire the engine about two days before Christmas  Look closely and see small red laser dot. Those marks give the paint man a way to align the panels without being on the chassis. And a 7" converter is, well, small. Note the more inboard blot pattern. |

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
YEA! Dolly has fired up!
She sounds great, we are very pleased and excited. A few minor knick knacks and adjustments and we are ready to track test. Our focus now is finishing body and paint work. More updates soon. |

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
after hearing Dolly fire up I think the 327 in the Super 10 would make a good starter motor for Dolly.
She is going to be a bad girl. |
