Projects Dreddybear's Model A Coupe thread - DARTH WALTER

Good meeting you guys too!

Me neither! This weekend really lit a fire under my ass. I'm actually excited for the body work coming up too! Weird.

 

Haha. I hear ya. A lot of good inspiration there at the show. I can't wait to see your car back together.

Even my wife called me at lunch and said, "We gotta work on that body and try to get that wrapped up before the Round Up. I'll help"

WHAT? I guess she got some motivation also! haha

 

That's killer! Just tell her sanding is fun...

 

Things are looking good. Maybe Santa will bring you his sled to lower & chop..

 

Looks good, really really good. Great inspiration.

 

Yeah! The engine "jewelry" is NICE.

 

This car fucking rules! The perfect example of what a home built rod should be.

 

Thanks guys. Putting things together and taking it slow. Waiting for some little parts. Sorry for the artsy pics.











Little Ubolt "Coats" as Lucky put it



Need to paint the 3rd member black. Chalk that up on the "forgot to do" list. Oh and this axle is definitely temporary. Real deal chromed drop is gonna happen.



I have little chrome and vinyl caps I'm making that snap onto the kingpin top and the kingpin bolt..

 

Wow. So over the top! You've got style, Paul, for sure.

And, as far as the axle is concerned.... turn it around, not many will notice that way.

 

Oh man! Thats beautiful!

 

CCCHHHRRRRROME. Bitchin.

 

Stuff and junk...

Sexy as all hell. Everything is working really well together brother. I have been losing sleep over those accessory wheel covers.

 

Hot Damn!

 

Here's me making vroom vroom noises while sitting in it in my little apartment garage...

 

That looks awesome!

 

Looking so damn rad! I remember when you first got this thing. Super excited for you!

 

This is looking killer!! I love the combination of black, white and chrome.

 

Dreddy... your frame/axle colors look so similar to mine!!! Wow!!

 

Yeah, but you need some chrome! (poke poke)

 

I got chrome... just not on the frame yet!!!

 

Looking sweet !!!

Some hairy shit goin on. All by my lonesome...



If it matters or helps any one make sure these two go together easy. If its hard then the torque converter isn't in all the way.



And there's an engine sittin in there..








Almost time to move onto body work and put this in the corner.

 

Soooo bitchin'. Those u-bolt cozies are dopealicious!

 

2 things

1) awesome!

2) are you running that trans with the cooler lines looped or just for install and painting.

 

That is so very cool.....I wanna put a straw in that Caddy and slurp it up like a big 'ol vanilla milkshake

 

Thank you guys

Just for now, though I'm not running a full cooler. There's enough room to run a shitload of little coils (copper) and go back in. Screw the whole cooler in the radiator thing. I'm not running lines up there

 

Dude, that's some major sweetness going together!

 

SUPER BITCHIN!!!! i love this build

 

I love everything about this build, and that Firestone sign is cool as hell. I wish some kindly old geezer would bestow some cool hot rodding shit on my young, eager ass. Anyway, MORE PLEASE!
