thinking about bringing a belly tank with a hot 8BA..... depending on the ground clearance of the tank... maybe just for fun!

 

Let's vote me in!

 

Looking forward to it

 

'34 5w coupe! Some assembly required...

building it with @blindowl and @toreadorxlt

 

You're such a tease, Mel.

 

Details please!

 

I'd like to make the trip, just for fun. Gary

 

need a pit crewman?
been almost an hour, you and your dad probably have it together by now.

 

And I'm subscribed. Was just caught by the local traffic police doing power slides in the banger A this morning.

 

Haha Ted, this one is going to take a little longer than an hour to put together! I'll start up a build thread in a couple weeks so you guys can track the progress on this clam.

 

I would like to humbly enter my build. It will at least spark me to get it done in time. AND...I'm close enough to drive it there (Long Island, NY) even if I'm not accepted to race. Late '31 Tudor, 59AB, '38 toploader, '38 banjo traditional build. No parts newer than the '40-'48 brakes that are on it. Pic taken in September. I'm further along than that now.

Andy

 

looking forward to it!

 

2ndchance, is that a Chevy chassis?

Someone please stop and pick me up on the way.

 

Best News Ever Mel!

Colorado is in!

 

I would love to go, but I will probably not make it next year. Check out my build though in my signature. Just going there is definitely on my dream list, and hopefully after some long nights it will be possible!

 

I'd just like to see it all in person

 

Sweet, can't wait. I will offer up my 32 5w since I couldn't get it done in time this past year and took my T instead. Or, I'm thinking about building a banger powered T tub or 23 T roadster just for the sand. I've got parts laying around begging for a good use.

 

Dave, that thing will NEVER see the sand! Waaaaaay too nice, bro!


Posted using the HAMB app on my iPhone.... How's that for traditional!?!?

 

My build

The Sawmill Special , named after the new old 1860's sawmill I'm slowing restoring into the "shop"

So far
27 T Touring (yes it is still for sale, but not really, I have a plan B if it does sell)
A chassis with a Banger
Early '28 AR wire wheels (think real skinny)
Mechanical Brakes (YES!)

Build thread as soon as the new "shop" gets weather tight and new floors

 

i may go banger class with a 29 roadster or a modified 27 T . or might just sit back and watch this year and save some Money !! either way i will be there !

 

Can't wait to get home and start working on the shit box express !
Here's some more pics of the 34 coupe/pile me , josh and Steve are going to build.

Nills, where do you keep finding these old cut up coupe????????????????

 

I had all this stuff stashed away. It's not doing any good sitting there. Now we have to get all the old timers with triples of everything to think the same haha.

I'm planning to build a Model T rpu on a '32 frame....shooting to start on it next month

 

Hell yes. Can't wait for the 4th annual!

 

Boy howdy I wish I could make it this time around. The roadster should qualify but it's just frame rails on saw horses right now.
