Default BRE Motorsports Hot Rod car rebuild and Franks Custom Fiberglass is Back!

Our hot rod civic we have been working with many of our sponsors and help from around the country to get this thing back together the way it should be.

I'll be posting up new pics and progress of the car as we go

Stay tuned....

Here it is just before it was torn down/cut up/blasted/ etc...

you guys should just quit with the hot rod car and build a outlaw car.


Did your hot rod ever hit 8's?

Looking good.... Before any of you guy's give Tex any more crap rememeber that when he built his 1st hotrod car he wasnt old enough to drive it...lol He actually went out and ran the car at events learning each time they ran the car. It has been over 5 years and he has a lot more experience and know how. I am sure the car will turn out terrific.
Oh and the hood you sent me looks good....

Just spoke with Tex yesterday and with everything he has going on with the car, I think it's safe to say it will be B powered for a little while still.

Speaking of which, Tex- can you refresh my memory of what your engine bay looked like? Specifically the drivers side of it? You know why I'm nervous....
