If you could build any vehicle...

grcthird · Mar 27, 2015

What if you could build any vehicle, your dream car, monster truck, motor scooter, whatever, no budget limitations, not having to worry if the wife will ride in it with your ugly mug, just for fun, just for you, just because, vehicle, what would it be? :dunno:

This is where the 80's child in me SCREAMS for something along the lines of The General Lee, Smokey and the Bandit TA, ZZ top 34 Ford Eliminator drool , hell even The Fall Guy truck.

I think right now, I could go for something along the lines of a 30 Ford Model A Sedan, slightly rat rod, flat black, flames, big ass blower motor, cage of course. :smoke:

I've already got the vehicle that I would build. It's an 81 Dodge D100 that my Grandfather gave me when I was 15. I drove it in high school with the slant six and 4 speed in it. 9 yrs ago I built a 400 big block Mopar and TF727. It's got a 150hp nitrous system on it now. It's pretty quick and surprises alot of people already. But I would like to do a full tube chassis under it with a huge high hp motor with alot of nitrous on it. Kinda like the Sonoma on Street Outlaws.

Re:

I'd pimp out a black 379 Pete. I spend most of my time driving big trucks so I guess I would build what I would get the most use out of.

My problem is that I want to much, I've wanted a cs Vette for 30 years, I finally bought one last week with stupid low miles, I'm already building a 70 c10 like i have always wanted, but I'm going to have to get a really nice 55 2 door Chevy for me and the fam to take trips in before I'm ever satisfied. Hell that's going to fill a 4 car garage between them and my buggy so at some point I've got to cut something but really think it would take all of that before I'm satisfied. That's the curse of people that can build things themselves tho. For example I'm laying in bed right now at 3:48 in the am writing this because I woke up thinking about a ifs rear end project I've been working the bugs out of that im designing. DAMN men and their toys. The big curse and blessing of man is the "what if"

I've built one thing I've always wanted a classic truck. I built a 54 GMC truck only down side it wasn't for myself. But it I have full access. So I got to built it drive it and play with it and not cost me anything. It wasn't really my dream vehicle. If I was going to tear one down and bring back together the way I want it would be a Buick Grand National. For some reason I've always had a soft spot for those. Second in line would be a 69 charger.

I am SO close to having access to all the parts. Just not sure if I have it in labor wise.

There you use to be a couple of guys that near Lawrenceburg tn (just down from summertown) that would drive in a couple of grand nationals change tires bust off some very low 7 second passes and then drive them home, I always thought that was some impressive street cars. And they are comfortable as any car

1955 Ford 100 from the expendables. I dont know why but I loved that truck from the beginning. Originally built by WCC. I wouldnt change a damn thing about this truck. Love the low and flat black look of it.
