Blue wrote:I love the Alchemist, best car there IMO. I don't really do hot rods, and I don't get the bare metal thing normally but that car is the exception, I really can't see how paint could improve it. The attention to detail and the sheer quality of the work is incredible. I spent a long time talking to Carl about it, really nice guy who I'd never met before, although surprisingly he knew who I was. The new metalwork will blend in with the old eventually, the dash top has the firepower emblems welded in and the whole lot nickel plated, it is seamless. Even every nut and bolt has been considered, most are aircraft fittings with castle nuts. You really need to see the interior and inside the boot to appreciate it, it's an absolute one off.
My fave too :thumbright: Didnt get to see it run tho :roll:

I could see it had an early hemi, lookin thru the hood louvres. Also saw the FirePower logo on the dash but couldnt take a pic as the windows were shut. I expect we'll see it in a magazine feature soon... 8-)

Great pics boys :thumbright:

... and I think the whole hot rod culture thing is fun. The first year that the Bisley Hayride doesn't clash with the Nats, I will be there in my Baker Boy cap.

It's Dave Dingleys Barracuda. On here as "Sticky" if you want to PM him, but he doesn't get on here often. Guy has good contact with him, I think.
