Projects Finally a Model A owner

Now that's just crazy talk. lol

 

Forgot to post a pic of my seat in the car. The rest of the interior will be done in the same off white color.

Worked on the coupe some more this weekend. Finished my door panels. I know they aren't perfect but for a homemade job they turned out pretty good.




And a nice drive home

Hate to sound like a stuck record, but you and your fellow HAMBer mates have done well. Thanks for posting. How much travel have you got in your rear suspension and do you know what spring rate and free height those rear QA1 rear springs are............come visit with your mates some time....

 

Thanks for the compliment man. Honestly I have no idea with the spring rates. I bought them used from a friend and he didn't know much about them. I will say that it rides nice so it does seem like there is nice travel. It's not too stiff but it's not bouncy either. It's actually a pretty comfortable ride. I'm sure it would ride even better if I wouldn't have put bias ply's on there but what fun is that? If I wanted a car that rode like a Cadillac I would've bought a Cadillac lol

Man I would love to visit New Zealand. It looks like you live in a beautiful country with great weather!

Thank you, I can't wait to finish the interior. I have a lot left to do on it

Thanks a lot man, great looking coupe in your avatar!

 

nice build!! You got lots of work done fast. I can't wait to get started on my project. This gives me inspiration to get going on it soon. I love the stance, thats what I'm gonna go for. Have fun enjoying it and doing what they are made for, "driving"!! Thanks for sharing your build.

 

Absolutely awesome. Great job!

 

Thanks a lot guys I appreciate it. I've got a lot more things planned

I've looked everywhere for a stance like this on a full fendered, stock body... you sir are an inspiration!!!!

 

Good looking A

 

Very nice, you hit a home run!

 

Had that been my car, and I sold it, I probably would ha cried all night! What a beauty! Don

 

Thanks again for the compliments guys. I need to get back to work on the interior

 

Mike after driving it is there any major changes you would have done?

 

The only thing I regret is not building a roadster instead.

Everything else is great. Runs great, drives great, good on long trips. Everything is great. Lots of fun to drive and comfortable.

Wow, somehow I completely missed this build. Love it, love it, love it!!!

The color, the stance, everything - SPOT ON.

Congrats on a great looking hot rod.

Thanks so much, That means a lot coming from you. I love your coupes. The Chemical City coupe is perfection!!! I have seen it in person at a few shows ive been to. Your 34 I would take in a heartbeat over mine! Keep up the awesome work

 

Not to worry, the first time it rains, and as you casually roll up your windows, you might even smile a bit. Worst case, put in a canvas roll back roof insert in it, that's what I have in mind for my 29 coupe. Nice job, Gary

 

Funny you should say that Gary, I ordered up my sliding rag top for the roof insert a few weeks ago and it is supposed to be here this week. Once I get that in then I can finish my interior.

 

Dang, great minds think alike! Max pix of the installation, please. Gary

 

will do Gary!!!

 

Shed some light on the roof piece you ordered? Price, manufacturer, supplier, etc.

 

Hey Joe, I ordered a 40x40 sliding rag top from slidingragtops.com. I saw one in person a couple of months ago and I was really impressed with the quality of it. I will take lots of pics of the install when it gets here.
