    Thought you all might enjoy a couple pics of the new roadster I just completed. The car is a 1930 Model A Roadster with a 32 cowl vent, 32 frame, 1939 flathead with dual Edmunds Intake, T-5 trans, Halibrand V8 quickchange. I live about 15 miles from Mount Rushmore hence the name.

    Wow! That looks really nice. I'd be proud to cruise the Black Hills in that!

    I used a hood from Hoosier Hoods. I added some bracing and modified it a touch for my mounting. It really worked well.

    My buddy Randy Gribble in Watertown,SD built the chasis. We played with the stance a little until we had it right. Started out with Ford heavy axle then went to a 4" drop Super Bell. The drop axle along with the 750 rear and 450 front rubber gave us the look I was after.
