    2013 Haspin Discussion Thread

    Anyone coming from the Seattle area, passing through the Vegas area on their way to Haspin... AND (1) hasn't left yet; (2) wants some gas money; and (3) has room for two front fenders for a 1937 Hudson-Terraplane [about 7 ft long x 4 ft wide x 3 ft high for the pair if you place them opposite...

    2013 Haspin Discussion Thread

    Re: 2013 Haspin, June 13th-16th Not sure if I can make it or not. But I was thinking of a trick I learned growing up at the mud drags. Fill any dead space in the frame an under carriage with expanding foam such as Great Stuff. This is a closed pored foam that will not absorb water, an keeps...
