Hot Rods Finally! 1928 A V8 Roadster on the road.

Well It finally happened. After 4 years (+ -) and a 5 week final push it's on the road!

Thank you to all the HAMBer's who have helped us on the way. I sincerely appreciate the help.

It sounds great and just about everything works like it's supposed to. One thing though. The frickken front signal lights turn on when you step on the brakes!

And the flywheel was rubbing on the flywheel cover.

Thats my son Gavin who did over 80 % of the work on it. 110 % if you listen to him. We started when he was 15 with a bare frame.

Here's some You Tube Links.

Congrats man!!

 

Very cool. You must be proud of your son.

 

Running a GM column?
(And perhaps true of other makes.)

There's another pair of wires coming out of the column for turn signal use.

I'm****uming you have dual filament turn signals.

Do the turn signals work as they should?



Neat little roadster.

Well done.

 

Thanks all.

No GM just an old style signal stat clamp on type.

The turn signal work jut fine.
