Thread: '30 Ford Tudor sedan

Tweet

Built this over the spring. Jan-may, need to make a grill yet. 350 with a dual quad set up, custom frame, air bags to drop the rear, 49 chevy pick up axle on the front, S-10 steering box, Chopped 4 inches, custom made front windshield frame, 55 chevy radiator. Built everything ourselves, was a lot of fun. I'll try to get more pics. Oh, the roof is out of a 2002 chevy full size van.IMG_0622.jpgIMG_0784.jpgIMG_0787.jpgIMG_0788.jpgIMG_0842.jpg

More pics, sorry they are out of order. I'll get interior pics too. IMG_0785.jpgIMG_0786.jpgIMG_0789.jpgIMG_0790.jpgIMG_0900.JPG

Looks great,how much did you chop and channel.
Roger

Channeled 3 inches (height of frame), chopped 4 inches. Channel is easy on this, because of how the original floor was built. To channel we actually only had to cut 2 pieces out from the firewall back, 3 tall by 8 inches long, where the firewall tapers narrower than the frame. Interior floor is flat besides the kick up for the rear. Also had to slot the body for the rear axle.

Took some more pics today. Custom made window frame, with safety glass, original door hardware, custom dash, turn signals, 55 pontiac tail lights, custom tail light mounts (rod and piston), custom license plate mount (hidden lights behind), tinted plexiglass windows, custom fuel tank, electric fuel pump, electric fuel level sensor (and guage), electric fans, everything wired and fused properly, custom made floor and tunnel.

Bunch more pics. If anyone is interested in seeing more of something, let me know and I can take a pic. Drives good.

I really like sedans down low like yours. Bet it's a fun ride, and making all the stuff yourself is the best part.

I have always thought that I preferred the shiny look. But I am starting to get used to seeing and even liking the 'patina' look of some of these rats.
