Hello,
I have been lurking for a while now, so it's time I introduced myself. I am into traditionally styled hot rods. I finally built my first one and took it to the Lonestar Roundup this year. I'll try to attach a couple of pictures of the roadster. The specs are as follows: frame: unknown make with Ford crossmembers installed and CE x-member, engine: Chevy small block with three dueces, Trans: Saginaw 4 spd, Radiator: Cat dozer with outlets moved, Rear axle: '57 Chev, front suspension: dropped Ford axle with Chevy van brakes, rear suspension: hairpins with model T spring, steering: 51 Ford PU, Body: 26 Ford. The car sits a little high in the rear, but I plan to modify the spring a little to get it down a little. That's about it. I'm having so much fun with the car as it is that I don't feel like doing too much more to it.
