Probably not the most likely gasser project, it is a
1947 international KB2, with a .030 283, h-beam rods, fuelie heads,13:1
compression, vintage 8hole Hilborn injection, and a super t-10.the thing
is a driver! But still far from the goals of the project. She's
getting shot with a heavy gloss black, new box will be fabricated, the keg
gas tank will be retained, and a straight tube axle with 54 Chevy spindle
will be used. It has a 64 galaxy nine inch, and the wheelbase has
been shortened 12 inches. This is all done in 7 months to bring her out to
terrorize on imports on our local Canadian prairie cruise nights! Oh yeah,
it has a Vertex mag too. The pic I supplied is the first night it ran,
with a tunnel ram, Mallory dual, two 401 nailhead Carter carbs, and a 62
impala diff. It had no windshield on the first unlicensed,
unregistered pass down the highway beside my work, where the photo was
taken. it was raining, and man was I cryin at 90+!! I hope you enjoy the
photos, and I will update you when I have something to update! (like
paint!!) |
