Model A roadster progress #7- lights!!!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Chris, Jun 1, 2009.

  1. Heres the last report
    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=361973


    I havn't had a chance to work on her latley, but today had a chance. The frame was bent/cracked on the passanger side frame horn, so I had to repair that before I was able to mount the headlights. Got that done, drilled the holes and mounted the bar up. I also located and hung the rear light, wired everything and wouldn't you know...lights! Got the rumble seat lid mounted and the springs installed.
    Not much left to do, hope she'll be done soon :D

  16. Funny thing about the hood...it only has one side! No idea what happened to the other side, but I bought it ith only the one side and top. No biggie, I just gotta make another one...hope I can match the louvers :D

    I had to wipe the drool off my chin when you sold your '41 Ford--and I have to say, I wondered why you'd turn that thing loose.

    (And I wanted to buy it, except for the whole no money thing.)

    But now I can see. This is one super bitchen roadster!

    What a great machine. Congratulations. I wouldn't change a single thing--except the name on the pink slip!

    Great work.

  18. I didn't sell the ol '41 bacause of this car...but ironicly enough I ended up buying the body a mere 3 days after selling it :D Funny how that works, huh?

    Hell just leave the RH side off. Thats the best side of your motor. Since you can only see one side at a time It would give the car two different looks. (both great). That car is really coming together now!
