Hot Rods 1931 CHEVY COUPE BUILD:"The Don's" first Hot Rod

Jeffrey, what a GREAT gesture and a great thread. It looks like nothing has been added for about a year, how's the progress? I am working on a '32 5 window with no subframe. I know it's been a while but do you have any specs or measurements on the main subrails, I would like to duplicate them for my car? Thanks! Jim

 

Just found this thread. Amazing work. I used 1.5 x 3 for the subrails and 1x3 for the rear kickup.

Please keep us updated.

 

For anyone doing more stuff like this, I put some pics of my original wood subrails here

 

Looks great!! Just got me a 31 Chevy body and will be picking up a 31 frame this afternoon. What I'd do without threads like yours? I don't know. Thanks for posting your work!!
