    Whoops, posted this using my phone and got all crossed up. Picked this up a few weeks ago, '28 Model A Sedan. 302, 4 speed, body in decent shape, needs some of the patches redone. Frame wasn't square and really not very well made, so new frame, body will be channeled 4 inches and chopped somewhere in the 4 inch range.

    Yup, funny story about that, I went to the Industrial supply company and bought an expensive hole saw, slow, cutting fluid, did 7 holes. Went to the big box tool store bought 2 less expensive (Dewalt) ones for less than the single one. One hole saw finished the rest and still cuts. I did bring back the expensive one and got a store credit.

    That frame looks great! Except for the front kick being angular rather than rounded, the frame looks almost like it could be a clone of the one under that fantastic RikkyBobby '28 Tudor sedan known as "All Cash'd Out". If you haven't seen THAT car, before you do the chop on yours, I'd suggest you go to YouTube and take a good look at the vid of the "All Cash'd Out" 1928 Model A Tudor sedan. That car really gets under my skin more than any Model A Tudor build I have ever seen!

    The truth is, I'm not completely sure, I had intended on putting a early '50s Pontiac wheel I got from a fellow HAMBER but it turned out to be just too big. So I grabbed that wheel that was hanging on the wall.
