    Yes, the color really caught my eye when I opened the thread. Anything that says, "I just painted X" I gotta look at but this is really something!

    Looks awesome! Congrats on the visual progress.
     
  15. Wow, that green is wicked with the black. Very cool, and nice to have a thread about an old Ford, instead of the ones i just read from a troll.

    Next time someone posts in some other thread that Coupsters are "lame" or something...can we just post a link to this thread and end the dislike!?!?

    Man...this is awesome in every view. Love it!!!

    That came out nice and I have to agree with Hackerbuilt's comment in post 26 that we can point to this car and say here's how it's done.

    You need to cut off those axle connections off those 40 style wishbones & weld on the smaller/thinner Model A ones.

    Lower shock mounts with split 40 wishbone & not long enough perches will cause the perches to snap/break.
