Hot Rods Curious: Who all's got Model A's in the works?

workin`on my scratchbuild 29 roadster..

 

I'm glad this one is back from the dead...like a HAMB history lesson...

 

I have a '28 coupe I threw together last winter to take my sister to graduation in. Drove it around this usmmer with it's original 'banger. It's going back into the operating room this winter. I picked up a '64 394 Olds for it.

Pics in my profile.

 

Here's my '30. Been at it about 7 years now...nuthin fancy, 283 , t-5 , 9 inch.Hope I finish it before I die...

 

I've been lurking this thread for a long time. Now that I have the car, I'll chime in. Just started; "unbuilding" the chassis for rust bustin' and weldin'.

 

I've got an old drag car project anybody interested?

 

Ive got a 30' 5 window coupe im building with my grandpa. 2" chop, custom built frame, 350 (dont hate) bored with new internals heads carb etc. with a 4 speed tranny. we have been working on it for 4 years. i would post pics but i dont know how.........

 

One of my favorites too! And you're very personal and unique heigth of chop made it a pretty sweet car.

 

It's in pending state right now, waiting just a little longer to get into the new shop to put it all together.






( a photochopped version of what I'm shooting for...)

 

Thanks buddy! It's got a loooong way to go I'm excited to see where you take yours!

 

I think I posted in this thread about 4 years ago. I planned on a heavy chop with a '54 DeSoto 291 Hemi and a ton of Mopar stuff. Well after having it for such a long time I have had many, many incarnations come through my mind.

Well after many different thoughts I have decided on your basic jalopy. Stock height, no chop, no fenders, full hood, built A banger and thats about it.




Thanks to the "banger meet" guys for steering me in the right direction.

I do believe that's where I'm going too. My current plan is to do no more to lower it than to reverse the main leaf eyes and use the 17 inch wires that I already have.......
The banger? I'm going to work at getting some horsepower out of it, build my own headers, higher compression, maybe a magneto for bling, and build a dual carb intake of my own design, since I did the one on my Nash and had such a ball doing it.

 

Glen: I know it's been a long time since you posted this but.....I LOVE YOUR CAR!!!!!! A ton of inspiration for my 28 Tudor.

I'm building a 31 coupe on 32 rails. SBC, T5, and QC.

Picture shows the bare metal body on display at Pistons and Paint. The body is currently at North Texas Customs for olive drab epoxy primer. Picking it up Tuesday.

I'll start a build thread when I mate the body to the frame.

 

Hi everyone,

I'm building a '30 coupe with a Y block with 6 carbs, cruisermatic and quickchange. Below is a link to the story on my chassis which you may or may not find interesting. Hopefully the link works.
