Projects ‘30 coupe, heavy chop and fendered

I’ve been assembling/building my ‘30 off and on, on the weekends. Chopped 5” in the back, and 6” in the front, a ‘64 Impala gas tank in the trunk, T spring with several leafs removed. 4” dropped axle with reverse eye main and several leafs removed in front I made a clutch and brake pedal mount. Keeping the fenders on and also the hood and stock grille.
....tried to post a video of it driving/running but wasn’t able to, oh well enjoy the pictures I guess.

 

Cool car.

 

Nice!

 

I think your in over your head and turned a nice car into a pile of scrap.
Fear not, I’ll take this pile of junk off your hands so you can start over in something else

if you couldn’t tell , that was sarcasm. This thing looks great !!
More pics and more story, part time build ?!
Full time cool
Congratulations on a job well done .

 

Congratulations bro! Maiden voyages are the best!! Unless you have to walk home of course. . .

 

Hah, that’s about all the pictures I have. It’s just a part-time build I only work on it on the weekends as (I do realize I’m very fortunate to be employed with all this pandemic crap) I work so much during the week, I’m exhausted when I get home.

 

It was a great feeling, only went up and down the block, just in case of that “walk” you mentioned!!! Haha

 

I saw your video on Facebook, looks cool and sounded good... like a real Hot Rod Should

 

If I can email or send someone the 2 videos I have and they can post them here that would be great. I keep getting a “security issue” message, and was told to post them on Facebook or YouTube, the Facebook link said the url is wrong, although it plays on F/B. I just don’t know how to post on YouTube!!

 

"64 Impala gas tank in trunk, picture of this please.

 

It’s still in the fab stage, as I’m still running the stock A tank as well. Welded the fill to the center of the tank, welded tabs on the sides and bottom.

 

Nice stance...it looks sinister

 

Well done!!! Congratulations. The car looks wicked!!

 

PUT THE HAMMER DOWN ! fearless chop...
glad your test drive went well...
I always test drive uphill from my house... i have rolled back down the hill and into the garage more than once.

 

Cool flathead. Cool hot rod.

 

Maybe Copy/Paste the link in your post to the video...it's just text...

Your Hotrod is Happening...a Moving Rumble fest indeed...Congrats...Hammered is the theme of the day...

 

cool

 

Good for you! The car looks awesome!. Especially like the engine look. Those first drives are the absolute best.

 

Got the hood, shell, and lights on today. Been a very productive HotRod weekend, and I’m happy with the progress so far.

 

We’ve got a few HotRods at the house so this one will fit in nicely as well.

 

Is that last shot the "before" picture? It's great to see a car done up with the fenders in place for a change.

 

Yes, that Green/Black “stocker” IS the same A as the chopped lowered A. I like the fenders on. I may end up removing the hood though, I kinda like looking at the engine while driving!

 

Sweet - well done sir - now drive the snit out of it

Great looking car! Did you pull the body off the frame to do the engine swap and suspension work?
