Projects 338ci Y-Block Wrapped Up in '30 Model A Tudor

4" there's one in the shop that has a 6" and one with a 3" and I think I like mine the best.

Thanks Carl. Although I've had many "bumps & bruises" duing this and other builds.

 

I'm liking it! We are home now (cold) I will drop you an email soon. G.

 

Cool, I'm glad you guys made it back safe.

Sold the Sedan Delivery just a few days after you guys saw it. Kind of a rare one, it went fast.

Awesome video Tim , thanks for posting it. very motivating and inspirational for those of us who have yet to make it to Bonneville.

Fantastic build!! I'm subscribed!

 

Thanks! I'm glad you like them. I like your Uni and I have always been partial to the '54, too bad you had to sell.

Cheers!

 

First of all, what's that ugly, ragged, old Falcon doing in Boling's shop?

Looking forward to seeing this in your driveway with the rest of your collection! Pure excellence.

 

Any updates???

 

He's out racing this weekend at El Mirage. I'm sure he'll give us an update when he returns.

Awsome, bloody awsome mate!

Made the hairs on my neck stand up listening to the revs you were pulling in that old girl!!

And what a ride, what a ride!!

 

One look at that pic and I knew it was a bunch of Aussies or Kiwis!

Hey guys, I'll be in your part of Aussie about Christmas, Coober and Alice.

 

UPDATES! UPDATES!

OK! now that racing is done for the year (well except for the Mooneye's X-mas show) it's time to get back on the Model A. Derrek got the new firewall in and the wheel wells done so now I'm gonna take it home for a few weeks and tackle the wood.

New firewall and you can see the patched kick panels too



New wheel wells look good too, nice fit for the cheaters.



Got a shifter for the C-4 and here's another look at the kick panels.



Also got the new windshield frame, I'll attach it when the header is in.



Stay tuned! I'll have pix of the fun puting the wood kits in, I've been told it's an easy job.

 

looks good Timmer, love the trips!!!!

 

That's actually a set that Derrek loaned me for show. My set is on Elwood right now.

We will be running a single four when it comes time but after the bugs are all worked out it's gonna get 4 x 2s.

 

4x2's SWEET!

 

get them buggs out!!!!

 

Here is my 312 in a 54 Ford Ranch Wagon

 

How do you like those roller rockers?

 

Great thread , nice work . Love the engine choice .

The car is now home and I will start installing the wood as soon as I get some paint in the channels. I'm also gonna start on some of the body work, the body was pretty straight to begin with but I want this thing perfect.

 

Today I will pull the motor, primer the wheel wells and firewall, paint the channels and other places the wood will be installed. Then the wood goes in of course.

Yesterday we took the car out and had a little photo shoot. I like the way it is coming along, it's gonna look just as I imagined in the beginning.

 

looks great Tim, hope you and Kathy had a great thanksgiving.........
