  6. Hey Ghost, looking forward to another great project/build from you! Quick question- what size are those wire wheels on your '29 chassis?

    I t's been awhile on this thread, but I am still slowly working on it. The frame is finished and I have the mounting Points for the body, bed, fenders and the not so hamb friendly mopar HEMI (engine and trans) constructed. The last couple of days I constructed the folding top mechanism. I am pleased with how it turned out. IMG_20190126_140029.jpg IMG_20190126_140055.jpg IMG_20190126_142149.jpg

    Ghost, you and others here do some neat stuff.
    More importantly to me, you teach us. You show the rest of us what's possible. I've learned a lot from you guys over the last 10 years. It's inspiring...edifying...motivating.
    I know I go on sometimes...lol.
    But it's the truth.

    I love the early hot rods...especially roadsters.
    I wanna do some neat stuff too!
    I hope I'm not fooling myself that I might be able to piece something together for myself. Thinking I'm gonna have to try.
    Btw...good job on the top irons! I'm think maybe my preference isn't the norm, but I might like a roadster with its top up even better than down. It changes the silhouette of the car. But it's also something about the contrast in color and especially texture...like a pair of white gloves...or a hat...or spats or something.
    Ok...I'll stop now...lol. Except to say that I can't wait to see your FrankenGhost finished.

    Thanks rickybop. I like the tops on a roadster because of my bald head, but there are times the top has to fold up.

    verde 742 I have started with worse. What are they off of ?
