allright guys, i have been trying to sell my 71 to buy another old ford to turn into a desert project since the 71 is so original and rust free, but no one will by the darn thing so it gets to be my desert build. besides, i think it enjoyed it when i took it out to Prairie City :D :D :D
Hey Everyone, I'm Mark Stahl and welcome to my new thread. After competing in this year's NORRA Mexican 1000 with Rory Ward and Jeff Furrier in my restored Chenowth 1000 I got hooked, again. We had such a good time, on the way home from La Paz the wheels began turning... I met Rory at Ivan Stewart`s auction and he told me they knew where my old car was and they hoped to buy and restore it....
Hi everyone. Just wanted to show you all a project I have been working on recently. It is a bolt on chassis for VW bugs. It is a long travel all a-arm setup using all 12" shocks, Corvette calipers, Silverado 1500 or 2500 hubs and rotors, Saco 1 car rack, Howe ram, and as few rod ends as possible. Basically I wanted to utilize as few custom components as possible and decrease component...
Enclosed photo's of the "John Baker factory-backed Dodge class 8" restoration. Dont hold me to all the specific details, as this is not my project, but a project of a long-time chaser friend of mine, Alex. This truck was literally found on E-bay four years ago, and was sitting in a horse-corral in Riverside Calif. without motor, trans, wiring or interior. We towed it back here to Tucson, to...
Officially starting my build... it has been my daily driver for approx 3 years and has been fun but now its time to take it to the next level. Its a 2000 Ranger... spent the last couple years with a Camburg 5.5 kit and 3 link in back with BTF links. Here are some pics... before I started the official build.. after she was parked in the new shop and now the tear down begins starting to mock...
We are starting our new (40year old) prerunner. Ok so why wont photos up load?
Picked up this 80's Blazer that was previously ran in Torc's Classix, for $150. Truck came without drivetrain, rear axle, wheels, tires and front cage. Previus owners had taco'ed the front end at crandon, and replaced the front frame. The plan is to get it ready to race at Red Bud, which is a little over a month away. Any constructive criticism is welcome. We put some parts on...
First off, I cant tell you how excited I am to be doing this project. I can honestly say that this is one of my FAVORITE off road race cars of all time. I first saw it at the 1978 MINT 400 and fell in love with it on the spot. I saw it again at Parker and could not believe how much bigger it was than the other class 1's, and sporting a V8 and a MONSTER wing! I'm still working on trying to get...
So It took me 3 Bronco to get one to build and Some extra parts haha I got a 87(blue) that had a rebuilt motor but when I got into it the harness was a mess so I said screw it cut it all out and was gonna carb it. I got the 84(green) for the C6 and 9" and ended up selling the rancho lift for how much I bought the truck. Now I just picked up a 94 (black) cheap cause the tranny was bad. The great...
Here are some pics of our second generation 7200 truck. Specs: Front travel = 24" Rear travel = 29.5" Wheel Base = 124.5" Track Width = 84.5" to outside of tires Hubs = Pro-am 6 on 5.5 Steering = Pro-am class 1 rack Rear Housing = Tubeworks 4" with Pro-am hubs and axels
2012 will see some changes in the Erceg Motorsport camp with the converting of the #50 (pro class) to #151 (prolite). The V8 never suited my driving style as I am more of a "revver" and my brain is still in 1600cc mode. So I thought, instead of continually bending valves and destroying Chevs I would slot in the V6 that rev to around 7,500rpm all day long. Combine that with a 6speed albins and Im...
We are excited to announce the build of this new 7200 / 6 truck for TSA Motorsports. This truck truck will be built utilizing all the best parts available. Watch the design process, build, and testing over the next several months as we take our idea from CAD design to reality! SPECS: Chassis - Camburg KINETIK 7200 Designed by Jason Campbell and Craig Hall Front Suspension - 24.5"...
OK folks, we have just obtained a 4130 1.5" tubed class-12 chasis. Present wheel base is 112" so it will be shortened. The plan is to build her into a class-5 Unlimited racer utilizing/canabalizing our full bodied class-5U we have been racing for over a year in SNORE and MORE. We have been successful and had lots of fun, but are tired of getting whipped by full chasis Baja Trophy-cars... So...
Hello everyone, I have read the forums here for quite some time and finally decided to make a profile and post my build. My name is PJ and as soon as I got my license at 16 I bought a 1989 Chevy C1500 for $500 of my hard earned money. Ever since then I have been messing around with it here and there trying to turn it into an "offroad truck" with my limited income and knowledge. When I first...

In the process of build, my Crumco chassis and full roller package pics are from march 2010 and received the chassis in sept 09. I am beyond what it is designed for by installing 300 hp Honda 3.5 V6 and Mendeola 2D.
(Tried to delete a section and ended up deleting the thread:rolleyes:) After my last build I thought it would be fun to build a "race-specific" type car. I decided on a SCORE tagged Sportsman Buggy type project. That way, as money/time allows, my son and I can pick and choose which races look like fun to do; otherwise, we will be tinkering around Mexico. As with the last build, this will be...
Well i picked up this '89 F150 from a buddy of mine about 3 years ago for $50 believe it or not it actually ran! Originally I was going to pull the 302 and put it in my Ranger but i thought about all of the DMV bs that I would have to do to make it street legal so i figured I would make the 150 into my race truck! :D It has been really slow and go, mostly due to lack of funds as I am a full-time...
Ok so some of you probably saw my thread on dr in the dr rides section "My B4000 converted to a Ranger" I had put an extended kit on it and had done lots of work to it, then it was up at JSI Motorsports getting fully caged and 4 link. Well a lot has happened the truck will now be a full blown race truck, I am acquiring sponsors and support from major companies in the industry. JSI...
Hey everybody at Race-Desert, im usually over at the TitanTalk forums, but i wanted to get some feedback on the truck and see what everyone thinks! Im 17 years old, and a senior in high school, i got my 2005 Titan stock when i got my liscence, and ever since i bought it, i had the notion to prerunner it. I have been learning a lot of fabrication on the way, and have come pretty far for being 17....
its my kit, me and my partner doin all the work and our OWN cad
Hi gang, I'm restoring Toyota Stadium Truck (PPI-004) over the next 6 months and setting up to do some stage rally, rallycross and maybe some local short course type events. This truck was originally Ivan Stewart’s truck raced by the factory team during the 1984-1987 seasons. I wanted to share the build with everyone so others could enjoy. Thanks, Allen Russell Back in the day…
ls1 powered s10 prerunner/playtruck. 4 year long learning project.
figured would be better to start a new thread on this, hope y'all don't mind. this is what I am starting out with, I will be fabing as much as I can due to not alot of money to spend on it and more importantly it is a whole lot more enjoyable to make something rather than go buy it and bolt it on. ;)
Our current project started out as a daily driver while I was collecting parts to build a prerunner. It had approximately 6000 miles on it when it was stolen in May 2009. After months of dealing with the insurance we were able to buy the truck back and unfortunately start collecting even more parts than we had originally needed. (as you can see in the pictures). We were finally been able to start...
Here is the latest trophy truck chassis that we are working on at Blitzkrieg Motorsports. The overall design of the truck will be similar to our original TT chassis, however, with a few changes. This chassis will be a little bit heavier than our 7200 chassis, but lighter than the original built for Adam Householder. With input from both Adam and Travis Bozzano we’ve been able to refine our latest...
THE FRONT SUSPENSION IS OLD SKOOL BUT IT HANDLES PRETTY GOOD. WE DO HAVE PLANS TO EXT. THE RADUIS ARMS AND THROW IN SOME COILOVERS AND BYPASSES. THE REAR HAS 31" OF TRAVEL USING A 2.5 FOX COILOVER AND 3.0 S-A-W BYPASSES. WAITING ON A PAIR OF 2.0 OR 2.5 4" STROKE BUMPSTOPS. VIDEOS
