vette/3100 AD hybrid

yeah,I have been looking and measuring and after going back and forth I thinkin about using Wilwood's "super pedal" dual master brake pedal assembly for manual disc/disc.It's a hanging pedal/MC unit.You have to fab[ a bracket/brace to mount but the MC is on the outside firewall,and they are small,and no booster.Easy to fill too.Would put an adjustable prop valve with brake light switch below or to the side of the MC.They are designed for racing applications but talked to a guy at Wilwood and he said alot of guys use them on daily driven custom builds.Looks like around $300.00 for everything.I just don't have the room under the dash after I moved the firewall back and I need room for gauges,defrost duct and wiper motor.I was thinkin.....,with the engine offset to the pass side,the little dual master cyl mounted on the outside firewall may look good and hide that a little.I think it would look cool with the prop block mounted next to the MC with the adjust dial,kinda race lookin....dude.....I dunno[S.....thanks bubba...

Just checking in to see how your wild project is doing [cl

Slow.Range of motion in my shoulder is slowly getting better.Just doing research.

Welcome to RRR. Let that shoulder heel don't jump the gun and screw up up again.

Thanks bubba,like your builds...A couple of my first build.....

I dunno guys,what do ya think? she's pretty short.......

Now seeing it from this perspective, I definitely think you should hang the doghouse back on it. It will help balance it out a lot I think. Right now the cab looks huge sitting in the middle of that short wheelbase. The hood and fenders would shift some of that mass over the front wheels and even it out. I think the stubby bed could still work if you did that. Just my $.02

it would be a great little autocrosser. might give this guy a run for his money. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prl2E9XNPAI&feature=related

I saw that truck a while back on some site in the build stages.Thats a bad little chevy.Maybe a hood flattened out and grille,don't know about fenders.I think the front end would look to big with fenders and hood.Unless I do something along these lines...........

no fenders please. here is our pancaked hood.

I likey your hood,kinda skeered of fenders.....I like the grill on this rat...

Plus my two makes $.04

You might consider a 41-46ish grill. With that wide of a radiator it would give you a narrow top but the bottom widens out to help hide the radiator and frame.

Fenders won't fit correctly,the firewall has been moved back 4''.If you look at the side shots you can see the hood lays right up against the bead below the winshield.The fenders will not line up with the hood and they won't attach to the cab,that mating area is gone.I think with the front end on anyway it will look like a reg AD truck with the bed wacked off.I may set the bed higher and add some length to it......like the fat cab.....

I do like those grill's,gives me an idea...thanks SS....

how bout the steel stock rims vs torq thrust on this bobber....?

looks more sporty with the mags, more like a truck with the steelies,and more streed rod with hub caps. i like the painted steelies best.imo

I like the look of the torque thrusts myself. The steel wheels with the Vette suspension seams like a big step backwards.

TQ thrusts definately. Looks like you are going for a sporty corner carver with it so it needs the big wide modern tires and rims. With the steelies it looks like all the porportions got messed up. Just my $.02

Torque Thrusts look the best imho... cab is not old enough to look right with the painted steel rims?
