A project we're working on but its a old picture and farther along now.

 

Here is an older picture of my project. Much has been done since this picture. It has been pushed aside for another side project for now.






Here are a couple compilation threads of our beloved 33-34's:

deadfast33, that hot rod is F%(KING AWESOME!

 

I agree, Deadfast your car is awesome!!!


But jrblack30's '34 is probably my favorite being built right now. Cadillac Motor, perfect chop and the stance is spot on.....I mean SPOT ON!!!

 

Damn it jrblack30, how about I trade you my '52 and my '32 For that thing!!!!

 

I'm alllllmost done with the '39, so I will finally get to start on the '34.

It looks like a nicely spaced pile of crap, but it is actually the best project I have ever drug home, by far. Expect first progress pics by september or so...



-Abone.

 

Shit flamedabone, I should really be saving my nickels so you can piece my '32 Back together. Your stuff is always amazing and you live just a short drive away!

 

I'm starting on this one in a couple of weeks....chop chop.

 

Badass! Nice, simple, and clean. Well done DeadFast!

 

Here is one I have had since 58.

 

RHD, filled roof , fender marker lights . Looks like something from Argentina.

 

It was. I bought it from another HAMBer. I'm switching it to LHD.

 

Flip the coupe is looking killer and still dream of your roadster kick my self everytime I look at my white board! Were's the truck?

 

Spot on !! WOW just bitchen, please post some more info.

 

I've had the pleasure of seeing the car in person and it's awesome. It's honestly one of those cars that I covet. And sit around and motherfuck jrblack30 for having instead of me on a daily basis.

 

Tell me the way that thing sits it doesn't look like it's one of those cars that seen double duty on the salt and the early drags strips circa 1951-1953. It's got the stance sooooo right.

 

Here's mine.

ok, I'll play again. We can't have too many threads on Model 40's. Here are my two coupes.

 

Long way to go...

 

JJ, thanks for the comments. I am still strugling with the stance on this thing. It is actually a nightmare trying to set up. Since I am running full hood and inner splash pans, it is critical that the body be place correctly. And since the frame was Z'd and the the body was channeled all the reference points are gone. I have to set the rad and grille, then set the cowl and the the back of the car to get the hood to fit properly and the lines correct. Any one of them out of place and the reveal lines look like shit. The things nightmares are made of I tell ya, nightmares.

As of now everything seems to be correct and lining up OK. The rear of the car came up about 1-1/2" and the front came down about the same 1-1/2", via a new front axle from Okie Joe.

 

SS34Coupe...what is the plan for the 5-winder??

 

O.K. I'll play!

 

I'll play too, I never get tired of looking at 33-34's. Here are my Model 40's.

 

Mine...........click to enlarge.

 

Still working on it, although it is a lot farther along than in the picture I posted. Have painted the frame, and the body should get paint in the next couple of weeks. The 53 Cadillac engine is being built now. My goal is to have it all together by the end of this year. I have a thread showing the build, and will post more updated pics soon.

Six pack, I like your coupe - it is a great example of a traditional rod.

Steve

 

Thanks Steve, Im planing on finishing her in Ford Washington Blue with a black firewall....as cash permits...lol

Chopt34...I love that coupe! guess you have to be carefull of the exhaust when exiting?? hahahah AWESOME!
