Nostalgia Dragster Rebuild

[Preen59]

For a first crack at video editing i'm pretty happy with it!

The guy that owns the joint has had trouble with people doing silly things out there so we were very tentative. To do a burnout we need a bigger fuel pump and some tyres that aren't worn out and 35 years old..

That's the first time it's moved under it's own power since about 1981 or so.

Wow that's awesome. Is the right tire buckled or is it mechanical but no biggie?
Again, it's bloody amazing to hear that thing.

Fair enough, looking after a guy who's looking after you. Imagine running into one of his cows at 200mph though!

The tyres are pretty old. They've sat around for a long time, so they've got memory. No biggie. We're not going fast on them.

Awesome video dude. Congrats on such an awesome rebuild.

Cheers, guys.

Great stuff mate, glad to see that it went down well

We started making the removable rear floor section for the trailer this weekend. Got most of it completed and the flat welded to the chassis to support it. Just needs some checker plate and some paint, pretty much..

I could finally watch the video after being uncapped. Totally awesome Preeny!

[DubSteve]

Love your craftmanship mate!

[Preen59]

Thanks, guys!

The funny thing is that i actually get to be a bit more lax with tolerances and fits on this kind of stuff than i do at work, so it's quite fun. Haha.
