    I guessed they were smaller up front too. Glad I asked and even more glad you told me! Thanks and keep up good work.

    I don't know if you told this already, but where did you get the 2 gauge pod from?

    I was there, just didn't end up on the beach. I just couldn't put the car through the salt water. No regrets, is what it is. Did have a problem with the distributor not engaging into the drive far enough. Turns out the head is 1/4" too thick. Ended up running up to the shop Friday night to machine the distr housing down.

    It's so RIGHT! All Genuine Ford Parts! GREAT example of 'nickel plated' '29 shell...
    To chop this roadster would be a travesty. Engine pics tightened my pants up...
    The steering wheel looks like Henry planted it there, likewise the stick.

    Just paint some Ford red in the scripts of the '46 caps.
    I couldn't drive that thru the salty sand either...not YET, anyway.
    Superb job. Really superb.

    Thanks man, I appreciate it! Glad you like it!
    I'll be painting the caps, orange like the pinstripe on the car.
    I think my favorite part on the car is that steering wheel. I'm very happy with how it has turned out.

    Very cool. I like the Side curtains. You dont see many of those on hot rods.
