That first shot of the speedster from the tail looking forward is beautiful. The way the aluminum panels fit around the frame is awesome.
Beautiful work man. Postcard from Adelaide. '22 tourer (low left) is owned by octogenarian. Super original car with some lovely old-time suspension tweaks. Stood out at recent Ford picnic.
Your T car hauler is going to be tough to beat, but that '34 is looking real nice. This hauler got pulled out of the original garage 20 years ago hauled sports cars here on the East Coast. Bob
Pete : I told you those F350 brakes were almost too easy!! Did you use the "modern" rear springs, or did you adapt the modern rear to the original springs for your hauler?
Forgot to mention; I wish I had started with Essex rails. The are so right on and are/were the shit to build on.
No, because of my attention deficit disorder, I wander off into other projects. Here is the latest distraction. A 1911 Auburn race car. Patterned after the "Stutz White Squadron" cars of 1911-1914.
That cowl looks simple at first glance, bet there was a lot of thought and fixture building to get to where it is now. Are the valve spring covers stock or a later addition?
I studied many photos of the several Stutz cars that were built, as they are my favorites. I was able to create a version that I really like. I still have a lot of details to tend to, like half oval moldings around the lead edge of the cowl & around the cockpit opening. The valve spring covers are standard on this model "Wisconsin" engine. By the way, this is the same model Wisconsin used it the Stutz Bearcat, 4 3/4" bore x 5 1/2" stroke!
