Hot Rods '39 Coupe - Updates with the future generation

Man, that was a cool day! Literally and figuratively! I still have that video you made. I need to get it transferred to DVD. I owe you a copy and need to get one to Kim. Yeah, she tracked me down about 2 years ago and we stay in touch.

 

Such a badass iconic car Chris. Glad to see the progress.

 

I’m still slowly getting that old Merc back together. Life got an appetite for my (spare time).
Coupe sounds amazing Chris, good job.

 

Thanks! I choose to run a Carter pump (P4594) and Speedways Filter. I debated some on this as I wanted to run a mechanical pump but limited on the Ansen motor mount. Ironically that mount will clear a mechanical with spacers, but would need to corner notch the hump in the crossmember - which I just replaced. I have the two carbs but didn't want the noise of the Holley Red pump so this looks like a decent solution for my needs flowing around 4.5. Filter is from Speedway: https://www.speedwaymotors.com/Prof...MItp3p-smf6AIVC77ACh3GxgpZEAQYBSABEgIUu_D_BwE

 

Another week of progress. My oldest son made a battery tray bracket. The young one and I installed deadener and enough shiny foil insulation to make me feel like I was prepping a NASA Lunar Module.

 

Cant wait to see it on the road again Chris...

 

I second that sentiment!
