    The day I finished it

    The day after this picture was taken I drove it from Chicago to Detroit for the annual Model A Restorer's Club meet/75th anniversary of the Model A/100th Anniversary of Ford.

    is there no suspension at all on the front of that truck?
     
  15. Not yet, it was in mock up, trying to figure out how to get the motor to fit under the hood. It will have a hidden transverse in the front cross member with bat wings and radius rods.

    SmokinBill that was one sweet clean little chevy II. I'll bet an old school teacher owned her. m.ralph
     
  26. The day I brought it home, worn primer, no glass, and all. Just so it wouldn't look like total ass I quickly primed up the fenders, quarters and the right door (the left is black, off another car). I still haven't come up with a left vent window for a price I want to pay (like $20), but I got all the other glass in it.
