Progress report on `29 Roadster

My newest project is still a long ways out...I`m still planning on bringing it to the HAMB drags in august.

I started the frame back last october; Zd 8", `58 ford 9", `40 ford front end.

I plan to pull the 327 out of the `40 and put it in the roadster...I`ll then put a 350 sbc in the `40, and sell it to help fund this roadster.

Here`s some pics.

 

Man, Now thats a project for sure! Cant wait to start an A roadster project of my own! Post plenty of pics as you go.

 

hope you can meet your goal in August

 

for the morning crew...

 

Found it! I'll bump you for the afternoon crowd.... Mike

 

looking good!

 

looks great

 

Lookin good, just a few things left to do before the drags Gary

 

One of my favorite cars of all time. Please post progress pics.

 

You know me, I`m a glutton for punishment!

 

I just hope I can get it done in time for the drags.

 

Bumped it for you. Anything new???

 

I`m thrashing like mad...I`ve run the brake lines and fuel line down the inside of the frame... mounted the rear shocks...put the 3rd member and axles in, and put brake shoes in the rear drums; as well as new wheel cylinders... Have most of the floor in now, and working on a fiberglass
seat...and starting to mount a fuel tank and battery . seems like a bunch of other stuff still to do, but I`m still planning on having it at Mokan in august.

I`ll try to get some more pics up this week.

Sweet! I look forward to seeing it at the Drags. Go, Go, Go!

 

Nice! Looking forward to seeing it at the 10th Anniversary of the Drag Nationals.

Looks good so far. Any issues with the tires rubbing on the wishbones from running the 40 axle with split bones? I have the same setup and I am thinking about running it in an A project I am gathering parts for.
