Hey everyone, i'm from Calgary,AB Canada. I am currently building a 29 model a sedan, it's chopped six inches and has a custom frame z'd 4" in the front and 19" in the back which was built by me. the front end is a 4" dropped front axle with early ford spindles that have been adapted to run late GM disc brakes. with split bones, the rear suspension is a fully adjustable coil over with a ford 9", gonna use the drum brakes on the rear. It's really #$% low. The drivetrain is a 425 nailhead from a 66 riviera, with 3 stromberg 97's. the intake was built by me, as well as the lakester headers. The car sits on 1000/15 Firestone dragsters with 15x10 Genie wheels on the rear, and 15x5 on the front. It is not finished by a long shot but it has come a heck of a long way in the last few months. I have attached a few photos and will apologize now for the poor quality i took em on my phone! I have mostly all of this build on camera and want to post some future threads on the frame build and what not if anyone is interested.
cheers,
dean
