Hot Rods :::Hilton Model "A" Build:::

So my old man has been thrashing on this coupe, i came home to the shop a week ago for my college break to help ... Things are coming together quick, we will be done for detroit for sure, hoping to drive to Austin in the spring from Cincinnati like last year... All work done, in house...

Pre Chop mock up..




Floor pans



Hand crafted tunnel





Rear roll



The headlight bar turned out pretty killer...


Oh yeah, its got a chrysler stuffed down in it, between super pinched bobbed deuce rails from Dropped Axle prod. In Cincinnati...
Heres the sweet little hand fabbed motor mounts..



Front frame and bracket detail..




More coming of the chop process...Stay Tuned...

This thing looks great, can't wait to check it out at detroit.

 

Good start.. Floor looks great......

 

Lookin' KILLER already. Can't wait to see it at Detroit!

 

that car is set up perfect...your Dad is cool.

 

The old man has done good

 

So where were we.. I'm still trying to get to where we are currently...

Reversed firewall, I've always wanted to do this on a 30-31..



Stock wood kit we stained..



Another view of the tunnel my old man hammered out. He's pretty proud of it.



Laying out the 4 and 1/4 inch chop.



Me trying not to cut my little piggy fingers off with the zinger wheel.









Oh yeah i filled the stock fuel cap hole too.



Here she is set back down to get an idea..





Oh yeah, wanted to throw in a big THANK YOU to our old BSM brother HAMMER HANK from STEADFAST MFG for all the help and the bitchin subrail kit... thanks dude! Hope your party went well!
He likes to "personalize" shipping boxes as much as i do... doesnt get much more hot rodder than this.





The chop is done and fitted, welded and metal finished, i need to get pictures. We are currently doing the quarter patch panels and getting the 354 washed up to paint. More updates soon.

That's pretty cool. Makes me wish I still had mine.

 

this looks like its going fast, do you guys plan to have it complete for detroit

the chop looks great by the way

 

Nice ride. Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see the finished product.

 

You make me sick Tyler, I need to show love on mine in the worst way.. I hope to get some work done soon on mine.. I have always wanted to make the Austin trip. Love the chop, when you get back in town hit me up, Ryan

 

Bitchin Tyler!!! I'm follow'n along!

 

Love the chop....

 

Derrick- see you in the "dirty d"

Clark- No 4 spd this time (sadly) I guess I have been weened off of anything that isnt direct drive with a pedal clutch!

Mike-Yes you would be amazed how quick the AMISH can work when there is a fire under their ass

Ryan from KY- Yeah dude i got your email for the logo stuff just lettin ya know, COME TO AUSTIN IN THE SPRING IT IS THE BEST

Robert- Hot rods make me miss the simplicty of a race car!

Yes the car will be finished painted for detroit... As far as running driving we will see, we have gotten into the mode of finishing the car cosmetically for detroit and then working out the bugs mechanically for making the trip to austin for the LSRU... So time will tell!

Thanks all.
