Hi From Niagara Falls Canada

Hi guys! Found this very cool site the other night though a friend and thought I'd join the madness!

I've been into hot rods and custom cars since I was a kid. For over 12 years, I've been learning the art of metal shaping starting out with a set of about 9 hammers, some dollies, and a 3/4" rubber mat and things have kinda evolved from there.

I'd like to extend my hand in appreciation to all the members who have the same passion for cool cars.

I was hoping to share a completed project built entirely from scratch including the chassis and sheet metal body. It was designed and built using SR-71 Blackbird influences with some styling cues borrowed from classic European sports cars as well as American muscle cars of the late 60's... It's powered by a mid-engine reverse rotation hotrodded Chevy 350. Our goal was to create something that may have resembled a factory produced elegant concept supercar in the 60's. This basically got me hooked on sheet metal shaping.

Here's a photo. If you guys feel it's "too out there"...it'll be removed.



Yeah I know I've got a few marbles loose...because since then I've started a second sports car...again all steel. More modern, bigger wheels, bigger engine ... and about 900lbs lighter!

Cheers, Nick

Welcome....a Wheeler Dealer fan?

Thanks, I've seen 2 episodes I think. One was when they went to the USA to get a Karman Ghia.

My brother told me to check out BANGshift, he is Gray Fredrick with "American Power Train"
I am a Chevy guy Through and Through and have been involved with cars for thirty five years. I have a 2007 Avalanche with a 5.3 Flex Fuel, and am looking for suggestions on how to best spend my money to increase the power... Turbocharger vs. Supercharger?
Any ideas?

[Brian Lohnes]

Gib, welcome to the fun! Gray is one cool dude and smart as hell, to boot!

Throw your question up in the tech section and guys will be on it like flies on a new suit....or something like that.
