Right on, thanks! What transmission did you use? I wouldn't mind swapping at some point. This car has always had a clutch chatter in 1st gear, I...
[ATTACH] Finished up some door panels. I also made some kick panels that match, forgot to take a picture. She's about ready to hit the road!
Thanks!
Hey Joey what are those brake hose covers called? I'm trying to find them on ebay for some motorcycle projects but no luck. Thanks!
Right on, can't beat bikes and hot rods. Thanks on the wheel color, I'm digging it too. The car is coming along and will be a lot of fun this...
Right on with the Ironhead! I run the same, Ironhead sportster, building a new chopper out of my Shovelhead, and loving my A. That's the recipe...

Been a little while, been making some more progress. Finished securing the top the supports, and cut in a back window. Used safety wire to keep...
Wow, that is killer. Really nice job. I wouldn't mind some ideas on how to the do the rear window, will get getting around to that soon. Will...
Got the top mounted for now. I'm ok with it but it could be better. I have plenty of vinyl left and will probably start working on a revision. It...
Thanks, appreciate it. I have not mocked up 17s on the rear. I do have a set of 17s, but have them for sale. I'm definitely sticking with the 16s.
Thanks guys! I love Joe Browns coupe, the look is killer. Definitely an inspiration for where this should end up. Love the aluminum top as well...
Love the coupe, this thing is killer. Great job on the top.
I agree thanks. I already sold the landau bars I had, I don't think they would like good with this thin vinyl top. I'm glad you used them though,...
Ya I agree, it's a good idea but I don't know how well it will actually work. Keeping this version cheap for now. Only into it for $45 for vinyl...
I had original plans to cut the window frames off, and eventually cut down the windshield. I'm glad I didn't, I think this will be cool and keep...
Thanks guys, it's turning out pretty cool. Lots more to do. I'll check out the Commerce City guys, thats not far from here. Thanks for the heads up.
Well it's been a few months. Got cold and car is sitting in my warehouse. Finally back to making some progress. I finally got around to painting...
Nice set of 4 Ford 17" wire wheels. They are all in decent shape and roll straight. You can pick up in Loveland, CO 80538 or happy to ship. $200...

Thanks for the input guys. Appreciate it. I'm in no rush on the doors/top, so I'll keep thinking about it. I really did want to end up with a...
And here's how it sits right now. Still haven't figured out what I'm going to do with the door frames and stuff, might cut them but not sure yet....
I know it's not period, but it really improved drivability of the car a ton. I went with an intake and weber 2bbl from Berts. Running a Carter 6v...
Then decided to put the running board splash guards on, still need to paint them, but I like the look. Wish I didn't trim off the front of the...
Looked a bit better getting it down. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Finally some updates! Drove the car as it was in the last picture for a bit. I was getting really sick of the Zenith carb. Had rebuilt it, sonic...
Right on, thanks bud.
Rad! Hey Joey quick question. What width are the tires you have on those 16s?
Right on, thanks Jet. I've already bought a few things from Bert's. Will check with them.
