1964 Chevy Impala SS Frame off build.

[Nicotine]

i dont see how boxing a frame (frames are cheap, can get a new one?), powdercoating it for longevity, and bags are "chopped up"?...

bags can be undone in an afternoon. the enforced frame will last a lifetime.

im really sad to see such a clean original car get chopped up and destroyed like this... but hey, to each their own...

[electricalbox]

Loving all the work being put into it, such a clean car.

Crazy Wrap for just Air lol. Can't wait to see it finished! Do you have a thread on Layitlow?

kinda. i didn't bother with it much... the forum is ok, but not really a thread i visit often.

and yah, this wrap is overkill for air - but, my air setup isnt slow up and down. it is pretty violent. I posted a video earlier that showed it at around 180psi, to which i've upped to 230... we are gonna crank it to 300..... or higher (depending on results)

plus, going dual port bags and cranking the pressure up to get it to hop, it will need it.

PLUS, it will be hydro ready. everything is good to go. drop em in and roll.

the frame should live forever.

Bad ass.

No hydros. Keeping air.

2 reasons.

1) ride comfort. We are gonna put dual port bags in front. Up the pressure. Make it hop.

2) insurance. So many classic ins companies won't insure hydros. They will for air. Not for juice. Which I don't get. Lots of guys on juice were dropped this year!

yep!!!!

I should have more pics up soon. welding was happening today, so if that gets done in a day or 2, it then hits the powdercoating.

as for what needs all this enforcement?

x-frames are solid, but they bend fairly easily.

plus, i'd like the car to last. hence why we are also coating the frame.

once all that's finished and it's assembled, it is heading off to paint. the good thing, the body is so solid. zero rust. it will basically be a sanding, touch up some small things, repaint.

i'm not going as crazy chrome and detail/pinstriping like most do. I'd like to call it "OEM+". Still keep it simple/clean looking, but freshened up...

I could throw springs back in it, and sell it as a restored 64.... more broad of a market for a cleaner/simple car than something over the top - that's if I was to ever sell it (which I have 0 plans on doing).

plus, my 5yr old nephew has already laid claim to it. he said it's his when he can drive. LOL. (he's already a big car nut)

Nice! Jeff and them do good work. I'd like to get him to do mine soon on my Lincoln. Switching to Juice I take it? If so what are you going to run?

Finally another Lowrider here. I recognize the shop too!

What in the world requires the frame to be THAT reinforced? Im assuming Hydraulics, but still seems over kill. keep up the fab porn
