We actually took those shocks off today and all it did was make it steer better. Here's a picture of the bike at its new home.

So after four years on craigslist, we were able to trade the chopper me and my dad built. And we ended up with this. A 26 T pickup. Small block chevy turbo 400 trans. Runs ok but I got a spare 302 calling this ones name...

I r pops that makes me feel better! I'm using a small two row honda radiator. I Haven't tried it though.

And here's the column.[;)

Here's the fire wall.

Been a while sice I updated. Got the steering in and working and the fire wall in place. http://i655.photobucket.com/albums/uu279/johnnyska1984/38ce5d4141a306cd678203160abc7d8f.jpg http://i655.photobucket.com/albums/uu279/johnnyska1984/5f364a2944aaa82c0c020ee7f0c0f2de.jpg...

Ybenormal the flaming river vega box uses gear oil so I'm sure that's what he's referring to. Good info billy I'll try it if mine ends up leaking! I'm just happy that my attempt to save money is gonna work!

Here you go ybenormal..

Yeah I can't see why it wouldn't work either. But if it doesn't ill just switch to the cross steer I just don't want to.

I need some help. I bought a vega box and planned on using it with the straight steer setup in stead of the cross steer. I mounted it below the frame and aimed the pitman arm straight up and it seems to work. But I read on speedway that it's not intended to be used this way. Please help!

Just finished up the floor skeleton and fitted the drive shaft. Really starting to come together! I'll get some recent pics up in the next few days.[;)

Oh and my car has the wooden frame.

Turns out according to what I just read that my car is a 26. They say that the 26 T has a wooden frame around the back window and the 27 has a metal frame with holes punched in it. Can anyone here confirm or deny it?

The grill isn't fastened to anything it's leaning on it. And the rake on the grill is so the grill doesn't sit a bunch higher than the body's cowl. I usually don't like the rake either but the 34 grill doesn't look bad raked.
