    That is moving for a 327! ive had the car on th 1/4 mile one time since its been back together at california speedway it ran 11.80 i run irwindale almost weekley its an 1/8 mile track the best so far there is 7.20 94 mph with a 153. 60' if you belive the conversion charts they have it should be running 11.40's in the 1/4....guess i need to cut some weight off the car to get it to go much faster its a 3,300 pound car with me in it very heavy for this car...its a small block 350ci motor..with 31x18.5 x15 tire....looks cool but isnt doing any good for the "go fast" part of it

      Pops is a gearhead! That 327 had all the bells and whistles.

          Stole the truck(1996 Peterbuilt) for 2k,wrecked. Damage to left front 2700
          My bill for labor 3000
          The material wes all purchaced by the customer but i estimate it at around 3k
          As far as the six weeks to build , the customer and two of his employees helped out positioning while i welded , and a lot of it on a step ladder.
          Paint job your guess is as good as mine.
          I would venture to say when it is all tallied with a few more goodies, winch for loading the car and one to control the loading ramp,he will have an eye-catcher for under 14k!

              Hadn`t tried much steel with the Dynasty200 , but today I got a chance. Be kind I have a long way to go. I think I am shy with the addition of the filler rod!

                Wheels,

                There is a lot of joint to fill. I really think two passes would be the better choice. Filler? ER70S-6? How did you prep?

                  I kinda rushed the prep, a quick pass on the bench grinders wire wheel. And yes ER70s-6 3\32.

                    wheels,

                    One thing about GTAW. Nice and easy. Slow you go. If you are not in the mood, let it go to until another time, unless it is your job. Sometimes as much as I love GTAW I just want to lay it down for 24 hours and do!

                        wheels,

                        Looks like practice is kind to you. Question: Is the air cooled torch really stiff and hard to manipulate at the angle you used to make this weld?

                          Not in the least, I usually have a 30a spool gun in hand either with 2# of 035 or 1# of aluminum. The angle of the torch head is what I have to keep an eye on. I`ve had this welder for a month but have had few chances to spend more than 20 minutes at a time practicing.
