Halfass Kustoms 1935 Dodge Coupe Project: Cutting The Roof Off, AGAIN, To Make It Cooler

With so much going on, everywhere on this car, it is easy to get distracted and go in multiple directions, but the roof still needs the love right now and so Brent is going to starting filling it in and then doing more work on the doors.

The original plan was to build a chopped 1935 Dodge 3 window coupe out of a sedan body that had been cut up. It was someone else’s abandoned project and boy did it look daunting, even for someone like Brent. So he decided that a new donor would be in order and that he needed to find something else he could make into his dream 3 window. You are going to want to check this out.

Brent from Halfass Kustoms is one of my favorite dudes on YouTube. He’s not fancy, he’s a bit brutish sometimes, but man he gets projects done in record time and is so inspiring to anyone who needs a push to get out on the shop and do some work. He works on his stuff multiple nights a week and so he really makes headway each and every week. I’ve been following his 1935 Dodge Coupe project for several weeks, and now it is time to share it with you. This one is a rough ride, and a roller coaster of emotions, but you are going to want to see this.

If this project doesn’t encourage you to go out and cut stuff up, then nothing will.

He’s starting with someone else’s abandoned 1935 Dodge Coupe project. But it wasn’t a coupe to start with. This was a car that someone cut up and made out of a 4 door car. And it’s rough. I mean rough rough rough. But Brent thinks he can save it.

Watch and let us know what you think of Halfass Kustoms’ newest project. We’ll have more coming soon.

Tre5 Customs OBS Chevy Feature: Red On Red On Red On Red…

Image
This cool truck feature from Tre5 Customs is an OBS that just about everyone can relate to. Yes, the fit and finish is high level, the chassis is rad, and the LS swap is on point, but overall this truck is still identifiable as an OBS, with only one body modification! It still has door handles, features some sport mirrors, and other than a welded in roll pan out back doesn’t have any body mods. It’s just as the general intended, only smoother and prettier. Check out the details in the video below. As we’ve said before, the guys at Tre5 build some pretty cool trucks, and I always like watching their feature videos that come along when a project is ready to get delivered to the owner. These aren’t super sexy videos that make you ooh and aah over the truck but never actually tell you what is in it and under it, these are videos that really show you the cool stuff that went into these builds! We’re talking about the details and info that real enthusiasts want. And while these trucks are t

Check Out This 6×6 Engesa EE-25 Army Truck And It’s Freaky Boomerang Rear Suspension In Action

Image
Army trucks, we love them. Why? Well for the same reason we love functional hot rods that are lacking in amenities but are heavy in ass kicking ability. No matter the country of origin you are typically not going to find a lot of cushy stuff in an army truck, especially a large one. They are loaded full of ability, though and that’s exactly what caught our eye when it comes to this Brazilian 6×6 Engesa EE-25 and its awesome Boomerang rear axle. The truck uses a walking beam style layout but it can articulate in some incredible ways to keep the rears planted while the rest of the chassis rises to some pretty steel angles. Quoting a story on the rear suspension: The suspension of the EE-25 utilizes live axles and leaf springs, the rear suspension having a conspicuous “Engasa Boomerang” walking beam, a feature seen on several other Engesa 6-wheeled military vehicles. This suspension articulates, allowing the EE-25 to traverse large undulations with greatly increased traction, handling,

FAST LSXR INTAKE TEST-IS IT WORTH $1000? HOW MUCH HP DOES IT ADD? LSXR VS CHEAP, JUNKYARD TRUCK INTAKE

Image
One thing that sucks about modern EFI engines like the LS, LT, Mod Motors, And HEMIs is that aftermarket intake manifolds for them tend to be really expensive. It’s understandable as there is a lot of technology going on in there and the manufacturing is way different than the typical cast aluminum intake manifold. Some of these intakes cost around $600 but some are closer to $1,500. The question is whether or not they are worth it. In truth, we know they work, and work well, but whether it is worth the money or not is going to be up to you. In this test video from Richard Holdener, who has tested more LS intake manifolds than anyone on earth, he’ll show the real results of testing this hopped-up 5.3 with a stock truck intake and a FAST LSXr. Video Description: LOW-BUCK, CHEAP, JUNKYARD TRUCK INTAKE VS BIG BUCKS FAST LSXR! HOW MUCH POWER IS THE FAST LSXR INTAKE WORTH ON MY LS? SHOULD I BUY IT FOR MY STOCK 4.8L OR 5.3L?
