    Man I really dig it with the rear axle shoved forward. I figured it would look fine but didn’t figure on it looking better! Haha

  4. And everyone thinks that only @squirrel can build an altered wheel base car. LOL

    Now think about the possibilities. Model A sedan (or any early ford Sedan) with a 40 spring and the Speedway mounts leaving the cross member in the stock location. Moves the axle about 6 or 7 inches forward. Instant altered.

  7. My model A frame has numbers and my engine numbers are clean too (its an IROC block and never titled in a car). I may go the bonded title route. It would be easier with Crosley numbers. But there is a way around every mountain.

    Street-able Altereds...:confused:...:D...are kinda Rare but if you see one it has a Racing Nastiness about it and Snorting...well maybe Roaring...I'd expect you fellas to be some of only a few out there...and true to you both you may see each other side by side at the Strip...

    How cool is that...;)
     
  11. I'll hook up with anyone. I don't care who wins. @squirrel and @flamedabone are both on my list of must race. I still don't care who wins. Some men are just an honor to hook up with. ;)

    I literally ran over my own foot with the A The last time I had it in the driveway lol. Hopefully I get this thing shoved outside before your north for good.

  14. Hopefully MOKAN 2020.

    This one should stand up and cut a straight line. It may never corner worth a flip, its a little light on the front tires. But it should go as straight as an arrow and its got plenty of brakes. We are shooting for fun as long as its fun we'll be happy.

    I would like to see that for sure

    I think the rear wheel placement looks great. Can't wait to see what it looks like with the front sheet metal on it.

    I have that pic and 9 others of the same car stored in my computer. I'd love to rename the pix with your father's name, if you're so inclined to mention who he is.
