Everything fits if you make it! '28-29 front fenders do in fact fit, and are the more desired of the two by some- '30-31 have a much bigger front radius , '28-29 are smaller and less bulbous looking. I'm not sure about the headlight bar, splash aprons and rear fenders. Hell, I can't know EVERYTHING!! ( I CAN find out- I hang around with some pretty smart cookies) I had fenders (steel) on my '31 roadster, and it looked like Dumbo was in the garage.
nasher ; same frames, the 28 / 29 front fenders are shorter, the 28 / 29 splash aprons have a larger radius [flatter] , so the rear fender must have the same radius as the splash aprons to bolt up... because the fenders are different the fender brace holes may be in a different place... requiring the matching headlight bar to the chosen fenders... gravel shield and grills are different... IMO... use all 28-29 or all 30 -31
My time away from the car has paid dividends ...back from our trip to Va for my daughters National Equine event and her and her team are The National Champions ! After the show ended at 3pm in Lexington Va, I cafinated up and drove 11 hrs straight home to reward myself with a "Free" Day. So I decided to start sanding the filler on the dash while the sun is out. As usual the Supervisor is sleeping on the job. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Congratulations for your daughter and her team on winning. Keep up the good work on your 29 two door, it is looking good!
Thank you very much ! I'm a proud dad and happy to have some "Me" time in the garage ! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Made my Hand brake mounting bracket a few months ago but never got it mounted. Had to add some spacers (nuts ground smooth) to the backside of the handle mount to get it off the mount I made. once I did that it fit great. Drilled a hole through the crossmember for the cable and bolted it on. Feels good to be picking things off the list once again. Thanks guys for all the talk on here over the weekend. I looked forward to getting back to it. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
It hasn't been approved yet so you better make it quick. Maybe drill an extra hole to make it different. Just to be safe. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I could have sworn I posted pics when I made it, but I couldn't find them... I'll take some and post them up so you see it without the brake on it. ( Not that you need the help) just thought i had posted them. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Hey Ron, Here's what I had in my phone. I had made it with nuts welded to the orig mount but it still wasn't quite far enough off for the handle to clear freely. I had added 3/8" thick spacers on the handle mount itself the other day to have the arm clear the mount I made. Hope this helps. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
You'll need 5/16-18X1-1/4" bolts for the mount to attach to the trans I used flat and lock washers with that length. Also going to need 3/8-16X2" bolts to mount the handbrake to the mount. Also enough room for flat and lock washers. There ya go bud. Have fun Thanks for the compliment btw. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Didn't have much time this weekend between kids and yard work so I got up early and got a few coats of epoxy on the dash parts. Hoping to have some time this week to get to work on my pedals and M/C. I pieced it together to see how it was going to look. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Thank you so much. I'm really trying to achieve a clean and simple look to my car. I'm happy with it so far. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Nice work Mike, that dash is having a much more exciting life now than it did sitting in the attic of my garage for years ! Now that it fits a model a so well, I'd like it back please ! [emoji6][emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I'm probably not going to use it anyways ...I'll get it boxed up and sent out in the am. [emoji16][emoji1360] Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
You can start a side job business chopping up dashes and selling them. Looking good Mike! Sent from my SM-G900V using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Honestly if people would pay me to do that, I'd be all for it. I love this crap !! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
As said 40 times already, dash looks super. Feelers are out for a MITERED windshield frame- spoke to 2 Model A guys Sunday. Keep up the good work, Brother!
I know I'm being picky, but you have your nuts on upside down on the 3/8's bolts on your hand brake bracket. Those little indentations on the nut you see, are there to lock in the lock washer, to allow the lock washer do it's job. Super job on the dash. Nice looking for sure.
