  2. Someone is going to get pissy about this but if you go to the top of the page and hit search then use the drop down box and go to advanced search and tap in Deuce rails for a search criteria you will find a lot of old build threads with pictures etc.

    While you are at it if you are already at the top of the page you will find an area where you can intorduce yourself to the rest of the gang. I am not going to read it myself but you will get a better response if you try it.

    I don't think I have seen a Model A on Deuce rails that hasn't had the frame horns bobbed but in your search you May find exactly what you are looking for.

    X2 on the intro and searching. Spend some time on here looking around and you'll learn more than just keeping a deuce gas tank under your A coupe.

    How's this for practice:

    Search for Brian Bass' Hemi Coupe build thread (or look in the tech archive).

    Good luck and welcome to the HAMB.

  5. It sticks out too far, if you're going to do it make sure you shorten the frame horns so the filler neck is close to the body.
