Hot Rods My 32 Roadster, Rolling bones styled NEW engine ...UPDATED 18 Feb

Steering is now working, and I had this problem when turning left or right, the frame was moving in the same time, so instead of using a panhard bar system that is look ugly on the front end ,I decide to imagine something different and come with this...The screw that you can see in the Ibeam will be welded later...

 

Can not remember where I saw it, but some one used a brass tongue and groove set up to limit front axle side movement. Perhaps the California Kid 34 coupe?

 

Looks good to me!

 

The Busby Coupe has a 'tuning fork', similar to what you built.

I really like the direction you're headed --- keep up the progress!!

Hello Everyone

Here is some little news

I have finished my brake lines, master cylinders etc... and i'm working on the exhaust now...
As you can see the original 1937 ford steering box was kept, so the exaust was a bit tricky to make... and here is what I have done...not really sure if I want to keep it...but will see with some times.
Also I have swaped my rear tires from 700x16 to 750x16, and the stence with that rake is now what I was in mind.














I'm also working on my lathe, then I should be able to work on my quick change soon

 

Thanks for the update, it's looking great!
