    This is one sweet ride. The wiring under the seat is just one of many great features on this car!! Post more pics. when you can as I'm sure it will be an inspiration to others.

    Just a heads up on your fuel pressure regulator- the one you have selected is notoriously bad. I know because I run them! They really like to be run flat with the adjusting know to the top.
    Great looking car- lots of nice details!

    Interesting point on the regulator. i have a fuel pressure gauge on the firewall and to get the 4.5 lbs at the carbs I believe the reg is set at 4. A bit of a discrepancy according to the numbers on the dial. Why do you say it prefers to lay flat? Thanks

    Bader2, the plug wires are off the hotrod company's website.

    Laidout- the rear end is a '41 and the rubber is 7.50 rear and 5.50 front [firestones]. The rear leaf was from a swap meet. Not sure what exactly it is but I did remove 3 leafs.

    Love the wiring under the seat. Don't know if I want to drag race anyone and do a speed shift. Looks neat though.

    very nice build! For those of us too old and creaky to lie on our backs, flashlight in our mouth to look at fuse panel behind dash, we are envious of your wiring accessbility!
