Can't wait! But there are others that are just like it, but camouflaged.....

I’m so excited for this one!!

Looking so good John. You all have done a great job.

Man that thing sits just right. 😎

A monster is born

That is exciting to see...I can't wait to seevwhat you do with a big block because you sure made the sbc fly💯

Cool brakes! I love it. I'm one "generation" behind you, doing a manual system on my Ranger with a Chrysler master cylinder. Sweet car, your gonna make me wish I had a BBC in mine. Oh yeah, get everything to be under the hood!

Looking great brother..

Let’s go! Excited for the content and knowledge that this build is bringing

John the new car is looking great

Add (weld) a new piece of square tubing inside the hoist arm to extend it. Had to do that myself.

Good job bro

You look like you lost weight. That second to last picture your left side is your good side 😂. I was like damn he must not be eating.

Thats awesome !!!! I may have to get Uncle Mike to build me a chassis for a 70 impala no prep car !!

So glad you got the mustang body with the boot lid rather than the hatchback. These look soooo much better. Please use a bonnet also TJ. ✌️👍🇬🇧

Happy for ya, and not a criticism, but no shaft rockers? Haven’t seen rocker girdles in a hot second. Never had good luck with them on big inch high lift bbc.

Them stud girdles only hold the stud from falling out if you break one. Aftermarket heads don’t need them. Stock aluminum heads do. I ran L88 heads for years with the girdle. I didn’t need them once going to the Dart heads. Short story. Fred Mandoline never used them on his Bac-Man rat heads. He’s the one who me you don’t need them on aftermarket heads.

@@alistairhennessey886 we haven't had issues with anything breaking. If stuff is moving around slightly inside it's not showing. .750 valve lift so the cams aren't that big.

Holy setback that whole engine is behind the front spindles that's gonna work as good as you can get on a setback engine for no prep it might be tricky getting it down on a real tight sticky track though but if anyone can figure it out it's John!

1/4”brake bracket, it adds up. A piece of.090 4130 with a 1/2 lip bent down on all the edges. Keep this car on the same level it’s at. It’s more work, but it’s easier to remove weight by not putting it in when you’re building. Car looks awesome, will definitely be faster than your previous cars. Can’t wait, you guys really get stuff done!

John has slapped the big stick on the table! Let's see how this works out there's about 15 to 20 care in small tire no prep that have stepped up their games to a elite level and I think the days of 50 60 cars in small tire is gone but what we have now is 24 or so real gangsters left and I'm sure we will see more step up over time and who knows we might get back to 30 40 or even 50 cars in time and we are about to see the fastest times run on small tire slicks no prep ever!

Wicked looking ride TJohn!💪💪

TJ i hope you paint and wire this car nicely. It’s to nice of a car to cut corners and rush to go racing.

been a while since i watched ..looks like you got something to work with there john.. I know mike .i was working for a shady dude in wrighstboro.. no names ..but mike would come by and fab stuff up..he was solid as they come.. of course at that time i wasnt my best ...

John i've been a fan of yours for a long time You actually set my your daughter on the hood of your old Cor at rocksboro motor Speedway, JJ. The ball's arm drop me and no family was there. Just saying, brother, you deserve this new car.Good luck with it and god bless to you and your family

That's going to be one baaaad unit when your finished John.

Guna fly John 💪🏼

Looks good John...

Absolutely can't wait to see it come to life , 💪💯

Looks good!! Excellent job by all! Now take your time and make the turbo kit look and fit like rest of car! Oooohhhh booooyyyy! We got us a real pro mod!!

Awesome👍

Looking Sharp!

Wow. I love it John ! Let’s go !!!🔥👍🏻

Cannot wait to see it make a pass I thought Randy I was going to have good luck this year Hope you can get Randy’s car fixed quick thanks for the videos enjoyed

Congratulations man can't wait to see you making laps !

Coming along nice

Let’s go baby!🔥

Looking good

Bed time John's wife is going to be looking for him and he's going to be out there in the garage sitting in the race car, LOL 😂😂😂

Yes sir Tj!!

Uncle Mike was using CAD cardboard aided drafting lol

Are you already mixing and matching rocker arms. Different colors under there.

Really starting to come together! There at the end of the video when you were sitting in the car did you pretend to release the trans brake and make engine noises?😁

Matching RED coupes????? Just a thought. Looking real good.

Send it to wiring. Tell me who you're sending it to so I can send these red and yellow connectors to them.😊

i think those different intake lengths one is for torque and the other is horse power,short and long.the also fixed it where a long one fores then a short one and so on for hp and torque

John hey man this your buddy in the wheelchair that goings to the track and hangs with you some witch is going to ❤be a lot less no I just got told I have cirrhosis of the liver and have 6 months to 3 years they say but I’m in pretty bad shape right now 😢. But I really feel with all my heart there is not a more deserving person on the planet and that car is fixing to be a lot of peoples menus 😂that is going to be a bad ride I so hope you enjoy it beyond belief 🎉❤

Lookin good man 👍 Is there a race you are shooting for?

😮👀 at that..😎👍💯

This will be fast fast....

It's to pretty to cover up Mike's work. Run it open chassis let all that beautiful work shine.

Are you gonna run in the mid engine no prep class ?

What happened to Courtney, I thought he would be racing by now.

John, have you talked to Pete about needing to change your converter going from SBC to BBC? I also hope you checked converter spacing... Car is coming together nicely, good luck!

I'm from lumberton nc, I need a wiring person, someone to fix my s10 sbc 84. I would like everything to work correctly

You need to put you a wing like the one fox body that has it attached to the reared they are doing it why can’t you

That's Randy's shop

Cylinders 2-6 on the Right bank and cylinders 3 and 7 on the driver side has the short runners, the reason the short runners flow less usually is because their angled to flow right into the chamber wall fyi

And that intake manifold.. always remember that air flow does not like to make sharp turns

Yuck bias bar. We used that same setup on an FSAE car. Overly complex, I’d rather have just proportioning valve

Whi doesn't like to a BBC especially one with big turbos

It looks nice. Newer builds look like this, the biggest change in chassis work(for all chassis people) came from the cup for the front shocks. Before pipes had to be bent so you would get like a hockey stick. Now you run a straight to the cup a straight after the cup. The double frame rail is also weird to see without anything on it. It’s just tubes in the end. Also chrome moly is a lot smaller, so his older cars had mild steel they were much thicker and bigger diameter.

@billbaggins9961

He bought this already started chassis from John Doc and had Uncle Mike do his work on it without starting over so I believe Mike used what was there and added to it keeping it a budget friendly build for John. It's going to be fine. Definately much safer and cleaner than anything TJ has previuosly owned before. I'm excited he went BIG BLOCK.

SOMETHING TELLS ME THE STANCE ON THIS CAR IS GONNA LOOK LIKE A SEAL JUST LIKE THE OTHER ONE. PLEASE DON'T FORGET THE HORRIBLE LOOKING WING IN THE BACK JUST LIKE THE SATURN THAT YOU GOTTA HAVE TO GO REALLY FAST ON NO PREP HAHAHAHAHA
