Some of you guys know Chuck but for the ones that dont you've probably seen him at the track. Bout 6'8-9 , 350 lbs with a pony tale , a little intimadating physically but as nice a guy as you would ever meet! Chuck had a bad accident at an NMRA race recently. Fortunatly Chuck is OK (a little sore but alive and not broke up). His blue 1970 Mustang went HARD into the wall at about the 1/4 mile mark totally destroying his car. Here's a link to a BBF forum that he and Damon Sea (Phantasea on here) are active on..... Damon was going to post this but can't get on the site for some reason! www.429-460.com/general-discussion-f5/chuckathon-help-chuck-get-back-onto-the-dragstrip-t1598.htm#16393 |

Here's the build thread www.429-460.com/proven-builds-f4/chuck-s-1970-mustang-the-rebuild-t1653.htmAnd an update with some recent pictures of the chassis that Bill Mitchell is building for us. www.429-460.com/proven-builds-f4/chuck-s-1970-mustang-the-rebuild-t1653-45.htm#26150Cut/Paste Chuck and I made a trip over to see Bill this weekend and helped him set the body over onto the chassis. Bill has a few more bars to install like finish the X brace instead of leaving it a Y brace (We were joking about that yesterday? Anyway, it was cold however we managed. Mazy was trying to help me when I was cutting on the body. I have a picture of her but I haven't uploaded it yet. Chuck was in the car making "Uddeenn....... Uddeennn" sounds while holding the steering wheel in place  Man the chassis looks freakin' AWESOME!!! I got the impression that Chuck was a little 'stunned' or overwhelmed. The car is starting to take shape and I have to admit, I'm getting a little excited about the project as well. I can't say enouth about what Bill is doing for Chuck and Bill's workmanship is freakin' AWESOME!! Did I say that already? If ANY of you guys need a simple roll bar installed or a full boogie chrome moly chassis, I suggest you give Bill a call. Anyway, here's some of Bill's pictures. I'll get mine uploaded shortly but they are about the same as Bill's except I have the one picture of Mazy and a picture of Chuck in the car making those funnys sounds :lol!: All of the pictures can be seen on Bill's photobucke page and mine Here's Bill's s254.photobucket.com/albums/hh93/85monte_ss/fabrication/chassis/mustang%20sfi254/And mine is in my signature New Pictures      |
