  1. Hey @GasserTodd ...As you can see by my avatar I'm a Chevy guy and always have been so I couldn't pass up a chance to play around with your concept. I went with a mild chop along with the other mods. Could make a sweet ride.

  2. Many thanks, The Moose and Madfish.

    Looking at the work you have done, it would seem to me that the key to getting the stance right is getting the chassis sitting fairly low. I will need to think about a chop (I have a long back and short legs so may be the worlds tallest dwarf) and that Chrome Yellow on Madfish's one has me thinking that maybe thats the future.

    This (and a cheap 34 Chev sedan) are what inspired me. Its just a really cool hot rod. I could do mine without the hood if I fitted up the blown big block from my bucket, (gotta fill the engine bay) but with a hood I could just downgrade to maybe 550 hp and have a high mileage cruiser. Hot rods need great stance and heaps of horsepower aye. :)

    can we turn john's intake into a dual quad? center the carbs over the intake runners. maybe leave the mummert logo between the two carb bases? if anything, extend the thermostat housing an inch so we can leave the threaded hole.
     
  4. OK ..all set to bolt on..;)

    You would need some tall spacers for that rear carb to clear the distributor or mount them sideways

    Instead of hot rodding, maybe you do a little rallying? Look up Fangio Coupes.

    I'd buy that.....and yes the back carb needs to move forward. Even the earliest one were not back that far. 2 Carter AFB 400 cfm's be perfect.

  13. TheMoose, is there any chance that you could change it from yella to purple and lower the front an inch or so. Apart from that, we might have a plan to lock in.

    Many thanks
    Todd

    i have two 400cfm AFB's on an edelbrock FM255 and a grant flamethrower distributor. now you guys are scaring me. i have to put the heads back on so i can check clearances.
     
  16. Thanks TheMoose.
    I think the darker colour works better. so that just might be the blueprint of the look we are after
     
  17. what i started with, the photoshop by @themoose, and the final paint job. thanks again moose! DSCF0002 2.JPG bed trim.jpg IMG_1877.JPG

    Getting closer to reality. Had a problem with too much clear on the turtle deck so need to repaint. I hope it matches. Trans dipstick is holding the hood up in this pic but that will be remedied tomorrow.

    It's raining and I'm bored. So...I found this traditional style Model A Sedan and decided to futz with it. I was never into Sedans but this is giving me second thoughts.
