Love that set of gauges. Clean and simple, but have the classy look without looking like a freaking circus. Looks perfectly framed in the raised center section. Strange that the clock does not look out of place, but I think the raised center makes it all work. Ok, I'll shut up now
picked up this nifty turn signal switch a little while ago, stripped the paint off, sanded most of the pits out, gave it a quick pollish and made a strap to attach it to the column
JEALOUSY!! Can I have your car? Please? Pleeeease! I love the proportions and that your using a Model A frame. I think '26-'27 roadsters look the best on 'em. Cool!
it's an Auto Lamp unit here is a thread talking about them http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=700050
Lovin' the T. This one sits "just right". I assume you did the 2" Tardel thing in the rear. Could you share the tire sizes you have on now? It looks absolutly perfect in the pic in frame 371. What a stance!
Awesome thread. I've read through all 19 pages. Makes me want to blow my roadster apart. Any updates?
man, what happened to this thing? Soooooo amzing! Just read this entire thread, really like what I saw! I have an old 48 Cad flathead, so if you ever decide that you don't want the blower anymore, let me know ;-)
I really like that. Nice little detail. Like the way the curve of the glass picks up the curve of the bottom of the cap. Very nice.
thanks been picking away at the other projects, anybody that has more than one pot on the stove knows what that's like. it's almost to the blow apart, paint and final assembly one of these days
I love seeing MY build ufold in front of me before I even do it. You car IS what I have in my head for my 27 T. Thanks for all the photos and updates. It keeps guys like us on track with our builds and excited to get in the garage.
been a while since I posted on this one, what little time I have had for building has been spent on the coupe but I did pick up another key ingredient needed to mount the McCulloch to the Olds I had a decent bracket but no tension arm when a better bracket with arm turned up I bit the bullet and snapped it up. bought a little antique GB toy plane last week, made a mount for it and bolted it to the stock radiator cap decent weather today so I rolled the cars out for some air and light and took a few pictures
everything is better when it's supercharged! front to back, '57 Olds 371 with 6-71, '56 Olds 324 with McCulloch VS-57 and '50 Olds 303 with 4-71
