Thanks C9.. Appreciate the effort.. Looks like a nice car but not the look I am going for with mine... Would like to see others, especially any black and white pics from the 60's (show or race inspired)

Not a C-Dan, but a fendered '29. This is running an original A frame that I mentioned in your chassis post. If I had it to do over I'd have opted for a new frame. This one's been rodded since the 60's and was kinda tweaked. I had a hard time bolting the fenders, aprons, etc up square. BTW R'n'R, fenders rule. They're so far out, they're in. You heard it first on the HAMB http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Detonator, Is the '29 you posted your car? If so, it's a sweetheart. It reminds me of the ones being built in the 60's, such a straight forward clean look. I wanted to build a '29 roadster w/ fenders awhile ago until I sat in a couple and found my fat ass just couldn't get comfortable in one. I probably should build a bus then that would be less of a problem. hahaha!!!!

Yep, it was my dad's. He was going through it when he passed away. I pulled off all the gingerbread, lowered it some more, shaved some stuff, chopped the windshield, and put it back together. I kept the fenders in his honor, but now I'm glad I did. I hear you on the size -- it's like sitting in a go-kart. I'm messing with the seats now to try and get it comfortable. I sat in a friend's 34 roadster the other day and it felt HUGE.
