Such a cool era of cars! Last year I built a 1951 Dodge Coronet Diplomat 2 Door "Faux Gasser" it's a hoot!

I love this type of build its not another chevy 2 or tri 5 I've been wanting to do a rambler sedan gasser I loved the rambler scrambler they built the red white and blue paint sceam I thought when I was a kid it was a custom race car this guy on my paper route had then found out it was a factory car I'd love to build one with a straight axle.

[@cruiseculturemagazine]

I love the 49-52 Chevs and Olds body styles, but I built a 53 Chev 2 door post, built 327, Turbo 400, I call it a gasser wannabe. completey original bones but I did add front disc. Isn't it true that the gassers didnt always have the straight axle per rules? I started to look at straight axles, but it was cheaper to rebuild the steering links of the original, (same as Corvette up to '62). Mine can be seen on rumble, anomoli is the handle.

[@cruiseculturemagazine]

Very cool! i went and checked out your stuff of rumble! Not all gassers had straight front axles, and I don't think it was allowed until the early 60's. The reason for raising the front end up or swapping to a straight axle was at the time, the tires that were being used had poor traction and were made of a very hard rubber, so the goal was to lift the front end so that off the line you could transfer as much weight onto the rear end as possible to gain a traction advantage off the line and down the track. This did make for some scary rides and it did eventually bring in some rules as to how high the crank was allowed to be from the ground. Old skool drag racing has some rad history! Thanks for checking out the video!

[@nickc5978]

@@cruiseculturemagazine Thanks for the reply, and the peek at mine. I am a big fan of gasser drag racing, so unpredictable, and I love the look. Some go too far overboard, and they get crazy, i think yours has the perfect stance, .

[@GregoryBamber]

The gasser will be nice when it's painted.

[@cruiseculturemagazine]

its already painted! #Patina

@@cruiseculturemagazine patina on cars and trucks is gross especially fake patina.

[@cruiseculturemagazine]

@@GregoryBamber to each their own, I’m sorry you feel so strongly about it 😆

[@GregoryBamber]

@@cruiseculturemagazine LOL.

[@28hiboy1]

I like it the way it is. Most of the patina is real. Just blended in the new patch panels to match. And I built it to look like a survivor. Wouldn’t paint it if you paid me. 😆

[@jamesweaver1738]

I could do without the audio.

[@cruiseculturemagazine]

lol what do you mean?
