That's a pretty cool bike in the background. Did you make that seat?

Here's the problem with them Zilla monsters: they seem helpful at first, but they follow you home, set up residence, and then eat you out of house and home. Beware.

Yeah we made the seat. Its a high speed racing seat (according to the Zilla Monster) who by the way, was a lot smaller and easier to manage when he followed me home. He's only 10 and already asking what kind of car we should build for him.

Cool setup on suspension! Can't wait to see the final product! 8)
 
Re: Schwindian gets it's namesake

Well here is the piece that makes it the Schwindian. Just a mock up at the moment, still needs some finish sanding to fit right (sorry in advance to anyone with a 52 Olds missing the hood ornament, we had to hack it up) (insert maniacal laugh here) 8)

Thanks for all the great comments and encouragement from all
 
Re: Schwindian gets it's namesake

Nice details :!:
 
Re: Schwindian gets it's namesake

Those hood ornaments are AWESOME! I love that you weren't afraid to cut it for your build.
 
Re: Schwindian gets it's namesake

We mocked it up for light before we hacked. Glad ya'll dig it.
 
Re: Schwindian gets it's namesake

Lights...check. Camera...sorta. Action...not yet, but getting closer.

That's an Olds and not a Pontiac? Interesting..........

I think it is off a 52 Pontiac Chieftan! Awesome! Dang it Judd! I had a whole drawer full of those that I was gonna use on my build!......

Oh Well! :lol: :lol: :lol: :mrgreen:
 
Re: Schwindian Springs and Things 5/12

I think that the trophy may already been in your mail box, that is nice. Is that the intended use for those mounts or is that your idea? Kudos to you either way.

It was a set up custom built for a lowrider in the early 90's. I didn't build it, just made it more functional and added some more chrome.
