Shouldn't you be out framing a garage wall..... :icon_smile_shock: :icon_smile_big:
And here's that pic you wanted

chargervert

Yeah your dam right I should be! Since when does Pam let you near the key board! I picked up the beam,the other day,and I'm going to start framing today! Just tryin to work up the bission!Ill see you guys at six!

69_500

I'm hoping to be able to finally see your completed Daytona clone car in the future. Thanks for the compliment on my 500. Its far from a very nice car, but its presentable. It is what I call a driver. It has its dings, and scratches, but then again that means I don't feel so bad about putting nearly 8,000 miles on it this year.  One of these days I"ll get it repainted, and some odds and ends here and there freshened up. Then again one of these days I am still planning on picking up a Daytona too. So who knows, the "one of these days" might be 25 years down the road.

I will say this, if I was going to clone a wing car I'd use dayclona's rear window plug, and a steel wing, and one of Jacks nose cones. Although is Jack offering complete nose cones or just repairing origionals still?

chargervert

I know that Jack was doing complete Superbird nosecones,and had only repaired a Daytona cone for someone. I heard that Gene Gregory was again offering comple Daytona nosecones again. I know that Mike could make steel cones,but he figures that the amount of labor that is involved with making them,and the fact that other guys are making them,he feels that theres no need to reinvent the wheel. I saw one of Genes cones at Carlsile,about 8 years ago,and it was a sweet peice,the price was $3500.00.Though it seemed like a lot of coin at the time,I wish I would have bought it! I beleve he gets 10 K for them now!

BTW, adding.. pounds... (than an original wing)  can produce 400+ pounds of down force...


MG=400+ lbs downforce :o :shruggy: :nana: :punkrocka: :stirthepot: :lolexplode: :nutkick: :slap: :thumbs:

For that "kind" of increased down force, I highly recommend a solid wing, wingwashers, braces, and one hell'va set of air shocks! :o

chargervert

Thats why its so important to have those wingwashers,and braces!!!!!!!I thought he said it weighed 35 LBS more,not 350lbs more!!!!!!! SCH---WING!!!!!!!!!Its Danes world,Its Danes world!!!!! :icon_smile_big: :rotz: ???

Sho 'nuff, Chargervert. It's plain to see that 'n weighs in at more'n tree fitty. Ah reckon she runs around fo' hunnit.
An' what's with that feller not having 'nough respect for his kin like that? If you take a notion to set your wife on your car like that, least wise have her covered up proper. I mean, she's a fine woman and all, but in the name of all that's right n' holy!!!  :angel: Ain' he never heard of "lead thee not into temptation"?  I dang near broke the laws of covetin' thy neighbors wife. That ain' right. :flame:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

G-Series

They told him to use wing washers and braces   :rotz: :icon_smile_shock: :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_wink:  Now that's funny shit right there, I don't care who ya arrrr....git r done

hotrod98

Just a little FYI...I built one batch of those wing brackets and don't plan to build more. I'm not interested in competing with the current repro parts guys. I was just trying to help a few brothers out.
As for my clones (daytona and bird), they're being put on the back burner for now. I'm far too impatient to wait on parts. When I want something, I want it NOW. It's just one of my many faults. If I ordered the parts that I want today, I don't see any chance in hell of seeing them until at least next summer. I'm going to spend the winter getting the hemi into the chal convert and I'm going to get my super comp firebird ready to go racing and I'm not going to spend any more time stressing over wing parts for now. I may even put the 69 charger back together and drive it a little come springtime. I've been restoring and restifying these mopars for the last seven years non-stop and I guess I'm getting a little cranky.   :yesnod:
Meanwhile, if anyone has any wing parts for sale, and I mean parts that are ready to ship, contact me.
I'm just going to watch for the latest updates on other guy's wing car projects for now.
Oh yeah...it was great meeting you at the car show in Houston, Troy. I love your charger 500.

  Damn straight Chargervert!! That thar 'sposed midrift will get a guy evey tahm. Just look what it did fur Shanier Twain, an she's only one fourth the woman. Ah reckon Ted Janak ought to be feedin Miss Shanier some peanuts, like he tried to do to Miss Carlisle 2000 in the T- Buildin this summer, onna counta he reckoned she was too skinny. :yesnod:
    It don't look like I'll be needin' the fork liftin dee-vice after all. From that last photo, it sho' nuff appears she be comin' round the mountain on her own, know what I mean Vern?   :icon_smile_shock:
    As fur Mr. Dane, yeah, we's just funnin. I wouldn't really be desirin' to move in on his ol lady anyway. My momma alwayz said, don't ever monkey with another monkey's monkey. 'Sides which, judgin' from that last photo, near as I can tell, he'll have 'nough grief with those bucklin' quarters an' that thar saggin' wing, an' more, iffin' he don't be escortin' Miss Lulu down from there right soon.   Far be it from me to add to that boys grief, wouldn't be proper 't all.   :o
    Shoot y'all, I gots ta go. I thin' I can hear ol Unca Jesse's pick up coming up the drive yonder. I do believe Mr. Dayclona was right; ol Jesse'll tan our hides behind the corn cribb if he hears us funnin an' a carryin' on like a couple o' mo-rons.   :'( Y'all come back now y'hear.

STINGER KIT JUST ARRIVED. will keep people posted , I will say one thing you better have better than average skills to put this baby together ? keep in mind I saved 5k

chargervert

Damn straight 70 Gen! We all know about how Ted was tryin to bulk up Miss Carlsile to his likin! Tell Ted that might be a workin fur that elefant on the wing of that there yeller car,but Miss Carlizzle ain't fallerin fur that one! I bet that one on the wing might be a kin to preform some kinda unaturel acts fur a bag of peanuts! Ted would be takin vantage of such a fine flour!Looks like that there bright yeller car,is a buklin in frum the stress of whats hangin out frum under that dress! I know these cars were designed two withstand speeds of over 200 mph,but not 4hunnit lbs!!!!!!He may need a couple house jacks to sport the tops of them der rear quarter panels! Thank the good lord that thats one of Danes solid wings,and not one of them there fiberglass wings,cause some poor SOB would have to be xtractin the fiberglass splinters from some real tendar areas!!!!!! :icon_smile_evil:
