    Looking good! Where are you guys hoarding the 34 grilles at out there? I've been looking for months and months!

    I was lucky enough to get the grill that you see in the pics with the car - it is in very good shape.
    Good originals are very hard to find, sorry I do not have any extra grills right now.

    I would rather trade 34 Ford parts than sell, to get parts that I can use in a project.

    Very nice 31pickemup I know you had pm me but I just couldn't let a extra go. But I went in garage again pondering if I could get rid of 1 for someone that really needed one then my message rang you found one. It looks good! It's like getting rid of a child hard to let go lol!

    Here's a shot of a 34 5 window I recently scored..It was rescued out of a basement by a good friend of mine..It needs all the lowers but for the most part hasn't had any patchwork done to it. sohc4 008.JPG

    That's a real nice start right there! I'm beginning to think that early Ford's just rolled off the assembly line missing the bottom 6 inches.

    What is this "street rodding" you speak of ?
    I heard a rumor it may show up at the "Weeks International Speedway" on a promo tour??

    Glad to see you have a 4-bar to go with that Super Bell tube. They go together.

    You know what it is Mike..When you think you want an old car but have no clue how to make a flathead with 6 volt, positive ground and a generator run! So you give up and put a SBC in it with auto trans,power steering and brakes,power windows and heated seats because all you REALLY wanted was new Lexus or Mercedes NOT a 33-34 Ford!

    I like the '33 hood sides on your hood. Looks kinda sneaky.

    So for the first time I bought a finished car - this one built by a friend in the early 90's, who passed away a couple of years ago. No, I will not change a thing, my friend Rod built this one just right. IMG_0876.jpg
