Projects Barrows Coupe aka “FIRST BORN” 1930 Model A (1970’s build )

Favorite part, is you and your mother. Well done. It's perfect.

 

Car came out so good @Mikel50
It’s hard to believe you did all this work rebuilding it in under a year, but it happened! This thing rips with the overhauled drivetrain and looks awesome doing it

 

Thanks buddy. Thank you again for all the help, guidance and knowledge.

Actual hands on time was just shy of 7 months.
Time to crank out the Sedan

I posted earlier that you have a magic wand. That was incorrect. You have an exemplary skill set. I have been familiar with this car for over 40 years and I was at Brads the day you bought it and I will tell you, never in my wildest dreams did I think it would ever look this good. I couldn't make it to the "Gathering" this year but I will be at Brads this year and I hope to see it then. Congratulations on a job well done. See you soon.

 

Thank you so much . I appreciate the kind words and compliments.

I will be there this year. Looking forward to people seeing the car. I already promised Brad and Kathy rides.

Great looking car but that radiator looks questionable.

It’s lasted 40 years and doesn’t leak a drop ... not sure how much more of a test it needs.
Thanks for the compliment

4 stars.

 

Nice work rebuilding your rod. I shared it with my mother who is 74 and she digs it also. As an aside, my brothers name is spelled Mikel as well.

 

I have never seen the car look better. Drive the wheels off it!

 

Thank you so much. You guys all rock !!
I’m a new member in the Tornados CC and we’ve been doing monthly cruises in our cars.

The coupe has been so much fun to drive ... I’ve started calling it “The HotBox” because it’s like riding in an oven on these 90° days we’ve had since spring.
Next cruise will be up in southern Maine (Lyman/ Limerick Maine) later this month.
If you’re in the area come out and join us.
