Chris, that's exactly how I built the seat in my roadster. You may want to run an extra strip of wood down the middle for a bit more strength. I hit a pretty good bump and the very middle snapped... Ya, ya, I could use to skip Wendy's late night too...
are you using the original steel seat riser also. I need to make a seat for my car and yours is looking like what I will do. Your car is amazing btw.
How long you been doing upholstery ? And what machine. Your interior looks great ! I just started on my trim skills !
Your interior is simple and simply perfect. You have the ability to know when to push it and know when to leave it alone. One suggestion; turn your air cleaners around so that the openings face backwards and see what you think.
Saw your car for the first time at the GNRS this weekend. What a beautiful roadster! The paint color is exceptional; you mentioned that it's HOK but what are the colors you used?
You're roadster looks great! I like the interior and top. I Think I saw you guys on the crest highway a few saturdays ago while I was on my way to work.
Very often when putting a '32 Shell on a '28, '29 Model A the shell is too high and the hood never lines up correctly. Casny's car is perfect, the body lines line up as they should. Great color and finish, must be considered one of the classic A's on '32 rails.
TRJ says it will be featured in the next issue, Issue 69 "....Chris Casny’s Root Beer Brown A-V8 has an unmistakable early-’50s look, especially with the custom-made top installed. We photographed the car on the Blackham Coliseum grounds while we were in Louisiana for the 1st Annual Bayou Round Up...." Issue 69 sneak peek: http://us1.campaign-archive1.com/?u=4a901c25eb18819b5c27d49b7&id=c5cbba0cf7&e=MnpM8M0rNw
Also maybe try CC's instagram feed, not sure if you have to be an Instagram user though. https://www.instagram.com/casny/
i´m not so much in the wide white´s cruiser style but dang with this color it looks great really hot car!!
This thread is fucked....all the pics have evaporated, as they have in many HAMB build threads. The HAMB is NOT the builder's reference it used to be. Makes me sad.
I'm thinking that most of those were lost when the HAMB crashed several years ago along with hundreds of other photos in other threads. Shit happens, we have to learn to live with it or figure out how to fix it and I don't think there is a fix for that.
The only one that can fix the pics are the Original posters and as you can imagine, that is not always possible...
Yep aware of that. When you click on any of CCasny's pix the link is to smugmug hosting service. Reminds me of the Photobucket debacle...
It really boils down to picture storage sites...if Hambers post via the computer hardrive they don't disappear...if the hosting company dissolves the pics in storage do as well...my ride was a build here and 2/3s of the pics are gone...
