My 41 Dodge

[Neverdone]

I am so excited! The suspense is killing me, but with the two job thing time is limited!

 

[Neverdone]

Well I got em on!!!! Glad I went with having less backspace it will turn A LOT farther now! Plus it has more clearence for the head lights, and it is still narrower than the back. Took her off her stilts and rolled out of the barn for a quick photo opp.

Still on the punch list to complete, need to fix the radiator, although I did find the spot it is leaking from, back wheels need to be touched up so they match the front, need to do a little reinforcing on the front suspension, and I want some sort of back window. After that, plate and drive!

Funny, last night I was talking to my buddy I bought it from, one of my good friends, but any way, he was trying to explain to me last night about how he built 72% of that. I don't think so. If you look at pictures from when I bought it to what she is now, I don't think there is anyway he can claim that.... at all.....

In that first picture it looks like he’s staring something down

Very cool, you’ll be cruising soon.

Looking good there Neverdone.
Good choice on the tires and wheels, I think you nailed it.

 

[Dirtyrat]

Looking freaking awesome man, great choice on the wheels too!

I give it two big thumbs up. That's all the thumbs I've got, or I'd give it more.

You know how much you did, and RRR members know how much you did so poop on him.

 

[Neverdone]

Thanks guys, glad you like it!!! And Bob, yes we all know the real truth..... I will just leave him dreaming.....

 

[ratrodney]

I cut thumbs of of four other people just to give you 10 thumbs up! lol I love just about everything about this truck. Great job bro! RR

 

[Sam_Fear]

I built 8% of it! (Well, I photoshopped a few pictures of it )

 

[sgtpontiac]

It looks excellent Neverdone......

I'm sure you're itching to get it down the road again.....!!

 

[ronnysplymouth]

[cfavrett]

[Neverdone]

So I been staring at the pictures and I can't decide....... would it look better with chrome beauty rings or no???

NO DON'T DO IT!!! If you start putting Chrome on it then you'll think it needs to be painted. DON'T DO IT!!!

Just my opinion, which is useless, and quite possibly the only thing that I can say is mine and only mine.

 

[cfavrett]

I hate to tell ya neverdone but I think its about done. I love it

 

[Neverdone]

NO DON'T DO IT!!! If you start putting Chrome on it then you'll think it needs to be painted. DON'T DO IT!!!

Nope pretty sure it has all the paint that it will ever have as long as I own it.... unless I get it striped or something like that..... I get a lot of complaints about the blue door, but that is one of my favorite parts!! LOL

 

[I-R-POPS]

Outstanding!! You had me worried there for a minute.
What wheels are you running? I've got a set of 14" chrome
Beauty rings you can have. Came on an El Camino I no longer
Have.

 

[Neverdone]

unfortunately mine are 15"

Had the Dodge out yesterday. Soldered the radiator to try and take care of the leak. Pretty sure I got it. It appears my air leak I heard in my cab is the gauge for the left front bag. When I had the thing out playing yesterday it didn't seem to cause an issue. My hit list of things to do to make this go down the road gets smaller all the time. There are only a couple small things left. Still a long ways from done, but not from driving. Guess I need to get off my back side and go see what I can do to get a plate and insurance so I can see how she drives. Kind of excited and nervous all at the same time for this. Been a long time coming to get to this point, hope it all works out ok.

Every time I have it out now I can't help but take pictures. Can't help it, the dumb thing just makes me smile!
