Is that a porterbuilt sticker on your firewall?

DRTYRAT30 · 07-14-2010, 09:22 PM

Yep, i have a vinyl cutter and mess around making decals. Figured i would make a PB flying eye Von Dutch style. Not for sale, just a one off personal use.

I can't believe that frame is rattle canned... looks awesome.

SBTork · 07-29-2010, 08:48 PM

Wow. Looks real nice. A little heads up incase you have not noticed, but I was on porterbuiltstreetrods.com looking at pics of this and I noticed in one of the pictures that your caliper bleeder screws were facing down. It would be awfully hard to bleed the calipers like that. Hopefully it was just mock up and you've fixed it since then, but if not yet, now you know.

Funny, thats where i noticed it also. I wasn't going to put the calipers on until i do the brakes but i tossed them on just for looks and got them on the wrong sides, funny thing is their marked R-L. Oh well just wanted to get the wheels on so i could push it out of my garage turn it around and push it back in so i can start on the rear half. Thanks guys

SBTork · 07-30-2010, 12:37 AM

Cool, I am glad you noticed too. I cannot believe that paint is spray can stuff, it looks like powder from the pics. Same treatment for the rear?

Thanks man

I'm not sure on advantages, i just liked the look of keeping most of the stuff inside the frame rails.

But if you emailed Nate @ Porterbuilt street rods he will give you some good info. I know it will lay out up to a 31" tire out back.

jasonhall · 08-04-2010, 09:58 PM

Started on the rear yet?

Oh yeah

And getting that trailing arm crossmember out was a pain. The 4 rivets on top are work.
