Projects Dreddybear's Model A Coupe thread - DARTH WALTER

Great build so far! Keep it up.

 

You sir, are a ruler.

 

I just read this whole thread. What amazing work you have been bangin out. . I can't wait to see the finished car. Love it! The white caddy motor looks great.

 

Because I'm so impatient, I went ahead and mocked it up on the "garage" floor.

 

Paul, I've not been on here for sometime, as I've sold me Coupe and bought an ironhead Harley.I have to say though that I've missed some GOOD stuff, I really love the vinyl inserts in fact I just love the whole chassis and motor combo.I won't leave so long next time, keep up the bloody good work.

Nick.

 

Thanks man! Have fun with that Harley

I'm still messin with stuff waiting for some chrome to come back.

Cleaned up the carb bases:







Got some Fuel lines run and painted the scoops. Still need a polishin.





Then when I went to make some linkage I took this aluminum rod and shaped the ends and then chucked it up to polish it. Well the first one got off balance and shot like a bullett through the wall!



Second one turned out ok..









Mitch approves!

 

That is wicked dude! It looks so technical but flows nicely! I like Mitch's metal face! Brutal!

 

Don't make it too nice, you're not gonna want to drive it!

 

No worries, in person it's just a hack job. So I can drive the shit out of it!

 

Mr. Fancy Pants....

 

Mmmmmm.....chrome.....

Looking awesome!!!!
The details are great...except they remind me of how impatient I am....lol

 

MMM,engine porn, the Cadillac engine has to be one of the nicest OHV's there is!

Nick.

 

This thing is really looking good. Very nice.

 

Damn, Paul, that block looks awesome in white and chrome! Did Jefe have some block paint left over?

 

Just noticed the drilled & chromed bones. Nice.

 

I love the grill...on mitch..what a killer motor and awesome dog

 

I'm hooked on them for sure.

Shh, I may have raided someone's stash..

Gracias.

Thanks. He's my best bud ever. This is what he does most of the time:



I finally got the inserts for the horns squared away:

Snaps-



And inserts-





They have just the right amount of volume.



Yes a savvy eye may have noticed that the brake hoses are covered. What can I say? I'm insane.

 

So ridiculously awesome!

 

Upholstered frame horn inserts? My God, Man, you've gone mad! (but strangely, I find it appealing!)

 

Yeah...no kidding.....I give up! haha
This car is gonna rule HARD.....

 

That thing is gonna be prettier than a supermodel on the beach with a cooler full of beer...

 

Love every bit of it buddy!!!!

Got a call today about your Chrome. Gotta listen to the message but it's alway good when he's calling me not visa versa. Might have to wait a couple days, Momma's having some contractions this evening!!!

 

That's GREAT news!!! (The contractions...well...and the call too) Fingers crossed!! Come on Veda

 

This just makes me smile. And jealous.

 

So jazzed to see this thing....

 

Vinyl-covered brake hoses?

Seriously. You need to start hash-tagging your IG pictures with #vinylaholic.
