Well after several FREE flame jobs I finally get some due payback work done on the Model A. Heres whata 6-man rotisserie and free beer get in our car club, now i can weld the floor cross bracing.

Heres what the winshield opening looks like when I'll be driving, I dig the mailslot look

[lesabre59]

this is my swap meet 3rd seat from a Caravan and we still had to chop 4" out of it to get it to fit, but i had to have the reclining bench in order to drive with the 6 1/2" chop

This is the body mounted so we could set the motor moounts/tranny mounts and fron shock mounts

[lesabre59]

this is after the final weld was done on all the mounts and the body removed again

[lesabre59]

this was the end of day with the shop cleaned up and the body returned to its upside down position for floor work....

Looks like some serious progress. I like the front wheel choice, but those rears need help.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

If I was still there in San Antonio I would help you get that thing finished, but instead I can just give you shit from far away. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif Keep up the good work and continue with posting progress pics.

Hey Terry,

hows it been going, got any updates on the modified?

[lesabre59]

By the way, the 30" wood wheels I have in the back are for mockup purposes since i dont know the backspace yet, but I needed the diameter so i could get the rake and then set my motor angle. I'll be running the same style rims out back that are on the front now.

You guys really "Make-the-Hay" when you-all get togather.
Great progress!
Keep us updated.

Thanks AHotRod, i'll keep yall posted.
Trying to get it on the road and the bugs worked out by the next "Day of the Drags" the Kontinental put on in Temple. Lone Star Roundup would be nice but I dont see that happening.
