Who has hot rods??

[Bobalos]

Afternoon folks,

I'm contemplating building another hot rod. This will be more of a resto rod or resto mod, kind of car that I intend to drive. No garage queen. I'm talking about 7k to 10k miles a year.

if this is you, how many miles a year are you driving?

Who are you insured through?

Are you sure you are covered for replacement value in the event of an accident?

Thanks
Bob

@JR_77 , not spam. I'm just more of a reader here. I dont have a lot to contribute to this site. I figured gun dudes are also American hotrod dudes....

Right now I'm going between mis 80s monte Carlo with 400inch LS or 84 - 87 Grand National.

Monte Carlo probably can find that’s gonna need a lot of work.

Grand nationals are gonna be ever harder to find and will be in good shape most likely and will be big money. Especially since one of the biggest hi hop artists of 2024-2025 just paraded a grand nationals around the globe.

They just got harder to find and much more expensive.

G body with a 427 sounds good to me!

I have my mustang insured through American Modern for stated value. It’s not a daily driver. A couple hundred miles a month

My 89 K1500, currently has the motor out on a stand getting rebuilt. My youngest daughter drove it everyday for a little over two years before I ham fisted it and spun a rod bearing

My 77 Monte with a stroked 454. 496+ inch BBC 580 HP on pump gas through a carb.

My wife's 66 Olds with a 455. 430 HP and 475 ft lbs.

Our 89 suburban with a SB2 that's fairly tame but enjoyable.

Our 86 Pontiac with a SBC that's also pretty tame but a blast to drive.

We like big cars.

I'm in the middle of doing an engine swap on a ford ranger. It went from a tired 4 cylinder to a small block with aluminum heads and other goodies. It's a sleeper.

I’ve got a few.. 33 Dodge 34, Ford truck 32 Ford 5 window and a 29a on 32 ford rails. Build hotrods and restorations for around 18 years now. Taken a little back seat now that I’m in the hardware store business.

This needs a Raptor conversion.

Since I had to install a toilet for the wifey, we can call it the CRaptor.

 

[502Chevelle]

68 Chevelle. 502 big block. It’s been sitting for about two years waiting on a new transmission. Life is just too busy. Insurance with Haggerty. Y’all have seen it plenty, no new pics. I need to get off my ass and get it back on the road.
