55 Speedster Widebody
Back in the early 80s kit cars were the rage. I took a 1971 Volkswagen pan and installed disc brakes on the front with Koni shocks all the way around. Installed a Fiber Fab 55 speedster. Fabricated wheel adapters so Porsche rims to be used.
Went with a crate VW engine 1776 cc
39 Dodge
1939 Dodge Hotrod Pickup
IEM Racing and Restoration built this 1939 Dodge Pickup as a shop spec project (now sold). Restoration work was performed by shop owner John Teaby.
The base for this custom truck was a 1939 all metal, rust free Dodge body. The front clip is hydraulically operated, which makes the engine easier to service, but is also a good way to display what is powering this truck. The engine is a 383-cid Chevrolet stroker engine that combines both horsepower and torque for awesome performance. The engine is given a boost by a Holley belt-driven blower, dual four-barrel Holley carburetors, and a MSD ignition. The transmission is a Richmond six-speed which allows for comfortable highway cruising and laying rubber to the road via the Currie Enterprises built Ford nine-inch posi 4.11 rear end. The chassis has been upgraded with a Camaro front end, power steering, Wilwood disc brakes, rear coil-over and “Z” bar suspension.
