    You should have left off the paint and made a rat rod. Just kidding, awesome roadster, look up "traditional hot rod" in the dictionary, there is a photo of your car.

    Love it!

    What's the steering? And which exhaust manifold did you use to clear the steering?

    Stunning Bob!
    Flathead meltdown at the drags perhaps?
    I'm entering for the first time. Would be cool to run against another 21 stud.

    Chris I have absolutely no idea mate it just started weeping out on the top in the water jacket side, whipped it off and and you could see that it was only a matter of time before it went as it had a hairline crack about 2 1/4" long,and before any asks it has never got hot at all runs at 180 all day long so thats put paid to me using it this weekend if not this year:mad:
