29 Model A Build

I've enjoyed watching this one over on the HAMB, and enjoy it even more now that I have the crib note version here also lol

**dreddybear** · 10-02-2009 09:41 AM

Yeah this is definitely the streamlined version

I figured it would be cool to see if anyone was interested. Plus I think my dads' streetrod friends are on here from Washington. We all weld stuff and drink beer right?

Geeesssshhh ----- what a showoff!

Wish I had some of that talent. I gotta do bodywork, and no idea! Never done any before, outside of pop rivet patches! Great Work. I like it. Perley

Very nice work! Love the progress pics, keep them coming when you get the chance.
Just one question, what did you use to drill the holes through your axle?

Thanks, Thomas

1" hole saw in a drill press. Went reallly slow. lots of fluid, took about an hour and a half. Cleaned it up witha flapper sander in a die grinder

Thanks-DB

Got the roof chopped and wheeled out new panels for the quarter window tops.

Keep those up dates coming, cool little car, reminds me of mine when I was building it, but that was a loooooong time ago.

Noticed how you have the Cowl tank marked to fill in. I was driving through Hobbs New Mexico in my little coupe in 1980 or so. Back then "THEY" stll pumped the fuel. Went to the head and came back and the station guy had pumped in 5 or 6 gallons of fuel right through the cowl and onto the floor as the tank was long gone. Made me feel like a fool for not filling it in sooner.

I really like your dash as well very cool. I built my own dash as well, but your use of an existing dash cut down is very good!!

Nice car keep those pic's coming.

Fender braces find a new home..

**Dave Severson** · 10-26-2009 03:51 PM

Neat little coupe!!! Lots of innovative thinking shows on the build!!!!

**The Bat** · 10-27-2009 07:00 AM

Nice work,like how the rod is going.

I'm seeing them headlite mounts as big time vib to headlite,idea would be add more bracing;crossbar and some kind of something off horns too?
