bnickel 10,004 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 Nice Rack!!!!! So what the heck is that red thing you welded to the grill? Looks like a permanent gas tank but the feed tube seems huge. B, can't you get nice flat pics of both from online catalog photo's? well i found some pics that may work. would you rather me post them here or email them to you?

burritoboi5 10 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 I think it's a homemade smoker. The tank is for the fire to smoke the meat on the rack. Correcto Mundo. The tank is a harbor freight sand blaster that I never used so I cut it up and now it serves the purpose of being a firebox. Basically the wood/charcoal goes in there and the vent channels the hot smoke into the grill for that perfect 225 degree indirect heat cooking. So far my trials have been either too dry and then not cooked long enough and too chewy but the flavor is still awesome so I'm improving as I go. :tongue_smilie: -Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

burritoboi5 10 Report post Posted July 21, 2008 are you still planning on ripping apart and starting over? Not so much ripping apart just yet. I want to get a detroit and some taller gears for the rear end first and most likely get it painted. But I still would like it riding on air eventually. Truck needs a new clutch though, and recently finances have been going out instead of in so we'll see when/if money allows. -Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 Don't know how far into your custom dash you are but pictures of a Shelby protoype just popped up on ebay and it had the Cougar dash in it so I thought I would just post it to show how cool it looks with the rest of the Mustang interior.
