Here's the rpu that I bought in the fall. It's decent aside from not having a subframe.

I think I'm going to put the rpu on the V8 sedan chassis.

Last one.....Think it was likely a Chevy or Buick? Anyone else shed any light on it? All I know is......I loved the whole concept, and construction. It deserved to win in my books...and did just that!

Holy shit. Looks like a Martha Stewart inspired shop. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Just the words of an envious person. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif My shop never has and never will be that spacious or organized. The RPU is looking good too.

54 Stude,
That yellow RPU makes my pee-pee hard. What a sweet hot rod that is. It has all the right stuff. Thanks for posting the photos. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Here's my favorite oldtime roadster pic. Anyone know the history of it? That's how I'd build mine... Got the pic off the HAMB a couple of years ago.
