Projects Stand By For The 1934 Chevrolet

6" channel stock wheel base. No kick in frame. 30" tall back tires. Will end up being full fendered. The running boards will be 6-1/2" front to 7" back corner off the ground at ride height. 3" axle clearance with a light C notch. I plan to drive it a few years fenderless before I cut up the quarters so I can mount the rear fenders.

thanks for the compliment.

 

I found a pretty nice cowl and set of doors with a 34 4 door sedan I got cheap.

 

Way better shape than what I had.

 

I've made progress on the frame. Some of what's left over.

 

Looking good man, that frame is looking real nice!

 

Looking great, nice work!

 

I like your plans for a channeled hot rod. More guys should try that approach with coupes other than Fords. 34 Chev five windows are cool cars when done.

 

Nailhead Jason gifted me these Hudson tail lights. Thanks Jason.

 

No prob Man, I got them years ago for a coupe project that never came to be. Glad you can use them. I now have 6 more square inches of self space, so we both win!

 

Geometry test, I think I passed. The frame should sit about one inch above scrub. I've got to notch the frame a bit for the front spring.

 

Frame looks bitchin!!!! Those wheels are out of control!! Love how this is shaping up already.

 

Any new updates?

 

I'm keeping after it. I got my axels back with new bearings and lug studs yesterday. Fuel tank is in. It should be a roller this after noon. Drive shaft will get cut and fitted Monday. I intend to plumb the car out while everything is in the open. Looking forward to hanging sheet metal.

 

Looking good! Can't wait to see the David Bradley parts!!! ARNIE

 

Very Cool. It's great to see another 34 Chevy being built.

 

Any new updates on this Xderielict? Hope its coming together good!

 

Good seeing you at the swap meet. How's the shivvy coming?

 

I've been working on the Chevy a bit. Fellow SOT member Rod Kennon helps when my ideas are bigger than my abilities. I wanted this grill from a 37 Cadillac cut down 6 fins. He nailed it. I modified the stock 34 grill shell to fit the cut down Cadillac grill.

 

Got some other stuff done also. Cord wrapped the 52 Buick steering wheel and shifter. Steering is functioning. Got the brake and fuel lines laid out. The exhaust is over the axel and out the rear.

 

That grille is freaking awesome!!!!, killer idea. You won't see another one that's for sure!!

 

Been fun watching the updates via Facebook, gonna be killer!

 

Getting a bit done before the body starts being fitted.

 

I had some theater seats in the rafters, I think they are fine.

 

Seeing your dash set up with the steering column drop really gives me a good look at where this is headed. To damn cool!

 

Lookin good, Dick.....I found a good 270 Jimmy for 450...buddy has it in a 59 1/2 ton and drives it occasionally.

 

I keep making progress. Hope to drive it yet this season.

 

progress a plenty

 

Started mating the front of one body to the rear of another. Looks like they mate up well. A little more to trim and fit.

 

Cut out caps that Hogrod made me.
