Hey guys, a newold project is coming, traditonal style, banger powered, 32 front axle with mechanicals brakes, reverse spring, A rear axle, modelo T spring A tranny, fenderless, original rpu body, 28 frame, windshield chopped 3" ...
Engine specs: model A block, model B grind cam, model A drilled crank, ported, custom manifold with a Holley carb, custom headers, model A modified fuel pump, the oil is redirecting trought a gallery of tubes an sending to the mains... Model B head and wster pump, lightening flywheel...
First when I bought, was thinking, its B engine block, but lately I figured that the hole for the fuel pump was maded, who knows when! Enviado desde mi XT1068 mediante Tapatalk
In the seventies, In my town and all around, over country roads, the owner who built the engine, competed In a category named " limitada 31" . My goal is rebuilt the engine as its is... Whitout modifications... Enviado desde mi XT1068 mediante Tapatalk
Some metalshaping pics... In the process I'll start using a model A phaeton cowl and doors, subriels were cutting and placed the original pickup subriels with some patchs...
As you can see... Phaeton subriels and rpu are not the same... Phaeton are wider increased front to rear, about 1.5 inches... I don't know why, but the phaeton cowl, came with the same original floor panel, same as the pickup.... So the panel was removed and fit perfectly...
Cool thread, my planned build is very close. Working on the chassis now, hope to get into the motor later this year and if I'm lucky pickup the rpu body.
That's how the pickup body looks like first when I drop into my house! Enviado desde mi XT1068 mediante Tapatalk
