bought a 59 Nash Metropolitan

After you get the Blazer running you wont want to sell it.


And yeah for sure on the L series but then it should be wrapped in a 510 body!

Just was thinking a rotary is so small it would be a cinch to put in...my brother had a couple Mazda rotary trucks, they where a ton of fun to drive.
The race rx7s at Westwood were insane loud...they do sound different. I kind of always wanted to at least drive one.




Do this to the Nash.......

Might get forced to sell something, which might be the Blazer

Wait, what?

52 years ago, I shortened a '56 Ford frame, dropped the '59 Met body over what was left. I forced a '62 Ford 406 Tri-Power in the space that was left. Three speed on the floor, firewall came straight down from the dash. Sat in the back seat. Ran slicks on the street. Very fast back in the day. Not even the local Vettes would try me.....

If you decide to sell the blazer, do it after blazer bash next year so we can still go

That intake confuses me. Why are there little valve covers on it?

Stupid show cars...sub 8.50 cage, please spare me the BS.

I'm thinking more along these lines

Here is the write up on Hot Rod. I love the front fender reshape, probably right click/copy that.

Has an LS3...

I'm thinking a tuned 5.3 would be enough to see high 11's to low 12's and be stupid reliable.

Yeah, that's badass.
