looking really good tim. everything you've done so far really fits together nicely/

 

Hot Rods will change your life? Looks awesome Tim.

 

awesome build

 

I heard that from some guy once. He was right.

 

Body is down on the chassis now. Chop comes soon.

 

Wow Tim!

 

Awesome man!

 

Great job and a great car Tim, thanks for showing us around today, it was great! We will look forward to future updates on your progress.Nice to meet you and Derrek. Oh, and thanks for the goodies! Geoff, Peter, Tom & Geoff.

 

Hey Tim, that thing is looking great! Glad you are posting over here, I can't keep up on the Y block site. Going into DT's, sure will be glad when Jim gets it fixed. Glen

 

Thanks for droping by! Glad you guys are enjoying your visit.

 

man i like this one.lookin good. i too im gonna start on a 30 tudor soon. but all i have in the shop right now for motivation is 429s and 460s. oh well ill use one of them.i just hope mine turns out as good as your is.we need doors or aleast the bottom 10inches of them and oh hell we need it all..lol

 

Y-not!
The y's look like they were made to fit in A frames.

 

Lookin good Tim, lookin good!

 

Some work got done yesterday.

Arrived at Derreks Shop and found the A all marked out for cutting.



Then it started.





We're commited now!







Set back down, looks about right to me.





It was nice of the guys to let me help cut the top of my car off but when it came time to re-attach Derrek and Jerrod (aka J Rad) are the pros. They do the important work.

 

Not quite finished but you can get an idea how it will look.



I get the "bone head" award for the day. While de-burring with a wire wheel it got away from me and and took a nice piece of skin with it.



That's all for now.

 

looking great... thats the perfect chop..... I am looking forward to more updates....

That thing is going to be badass Tim, it makes me want to ditch the 57 custom and find a Model A. Good work dude!

 

Thanks Glen! You keep it up on the '57.

 

Hey Tim , you guys move fast. We load up my engine and by the time I get home you have the top chopped.

I missed all the fun. Your A is looking as good in person as it is in the pictures, glad I was able to see it.

Looks even better with the lid lowered.

Count yourself lucky with the minor skin damage, I should have showed you my scar in almost the identical location also on my right hand, a zip cutting blade on a mini grinder got me and I had stitches and almost severed a tendon.

Looking good.

That chop looks great and CLEAN Tim.. They make it look so easy !!

 

"If it don't make you bleed it ain't yours!"

 

Super sweet, looks like a way awesome build. Best o luck! ~sololobo~

 

I always leave a bit of genetics on any project-home or cars. Coming along great, Tim. I'm slowly squeezing a 292 in a '29 Sport Coupe-moved the front x-mem about 2". Did you make your own frame and motor mounts?

Chop looks just right! How much is it? Trying to decide how much to chop my ' 28 Tudor.

 

Derrek Boling made the chassis, it's what they do at Boling Brothers http://www.bolingbrothers.com/live/, it's a bit longer than a stock frame and a lot stonger. Look at the pix in the beginning of the thread. <!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
