My work in progress

 

I have a "Control Design" Magazine from May of 2005 with this car on the cover. Wow.

Shes still a work in progress.... this type of thread makes me want to get working on the roadster!

 

Cool thread, Chis.


The meager beginning....






The first fire...








The end result...

A frame, stretched then bobbed up front, kicked in back.

8BA, Thickstun, 97s, Mallory, 39 Tranny, 40 rear.

 

Cool modified Rodster. Love the video too, I can't wait to wake up my flathead one of these days!

 

This one:


Yep that's mine.

Your the second person that has told me they recognize the car on the HAMB.

 

Yeah, that's the mag. Good side shot on pages 32/33 also.

It's also one of the few Y carb manifolds that I've seen. Here's mine.

I dig it, nice car man.

i love this thread-thanks chris!!!

 

will a photo of a flathead separate from my 29 coupe do....they'll be going together in the future.





for what its worth i much prefer an A coupe on A rails to an A on a 32 frame, i think the 32frame looks too heavy / out of proportion. still, what do I know?
different story on a roadster though....

 

Nice Thread !

 

In progress....still

 

Here's my pile.

 

Jick is doing better than me all I have at the moment is A crusty flathead, Model A axle with wishbones, 29 Cowl and gas tank and banjo rear axle of unknown year.

This is a great thread you started Chris. I've got it bookmarked and hope to see a lot more but where are the sedans?

 

nosurf, nice pic of your coupe

 

Mine

 

Thanks Mr Jared.

The single carb on there bothers me though- I need to get the superdual on there...

 

Rustybucket, that thing is ART!!!

 

Heres mine.

Jay,
Single carb or 4X2's, your car is one of my favs. Keep posting pics, there's never a bad angle shot.

 

heres mine been workin on it for 4 months built from craiogs list and swap meet parts

 

Mine seems to be attracted to Chris' threads! i dont think ive posted this pic yet though...

 

It's not this clean now, and tore apart in the garage...still working on getting the fan all set up.

 

yeah, that's a real pile of shit there Jay....lol

 

Awesome! Exactly what Im working on right now. 30 coupe on "A" rails with a 59AB engine and 39 trans. This post will be a little inspiration in the lovely weather right now.

 

Here's mine, hope to get it on the road in2010.

 

Chris, I think you might have more pics of my car than I do!

 

I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with. I'm putting a '42 Merc 239 in my '29 RPU and am considering fan choices.
