    NICE JOB, good to see somebody build their parts other than opening your wallet, built a set of rear doors for my 28 tub about 30+ yrs ago using about the same method, keep up the good work.

    I have a frame I have been building for another Model A project of mine. I sat this little beauty on it and now I am torn... It is going to be hard to keep with my original plans.

  7. Your doing a fantastic job. I noticed this has gone four pages without your initial question being answered. Here you are. One windshield post base is missing on mine so I took a shot inside for reference. The thickness of the door posts and cowl frame are about 14-12 guage. The back edge of the gas tank bolts up to the bottom . Hope this gets you on track.

    Not sure on quarters yet. I am very much thinking about wrapping it up as an RPU to create more room in the shop for a current (32 3W) project.

    And yes, I have yet another iron in the fire.
