Progress update on Grumpy's Toy tribute car

JCChildress · 07-20-2012, 10:27 AM

Well........things have been moving right along. Most of the parts are here. The car is at Wisecarver's getting the full gusto ( cage, rear suspension,front suspension,wheelie bars, etc ). The Browell bellhousing and Liberty trans are here and they got me really excited. Mickey Thompson slicks are all mounted on Weld wheels. The Santhuff shocks are killer. Brakes all the way around from Strange and Strange 40 spline,gun drilled axles. Danny Ashley fixed me a nice carb. Got new hood and bumpers from J&W Nova parts. Charlie is building me a neat oil pan. Cylinder heads will be done soon and assembly will start. Burns is building a nice set of collectors for me. Got some of Grumpy's old valve covers off one his old pro stock small blocks. My bowtie block also came from Grumpy.
