Building MY first "A" model

Have been in and around hot rods my whole life. My dad has built and owned many A models but this is my first. Its something ive always dreamed of having even though i have other hot rods an A model to me is just the the end all be all of hot rodding and i am shocked everytime i walk in the garage and realize that i actually own one. So heres a few pictures of the progress so far....

 

sorry post is all screwed up. not really sure what i did haha

 

Sweet looking project. Good luck!

 

Looks cool! chop that header down to 1"!!

 

When you paste in your photo URL, hit the return bar a time or two and then the pictures will stack.

 

thanks guys i will keep this updated and post the pictures correctly next time now that i know how haha

 

I'm likin your little truck there,Jr!!

 

thanks man

 

Neat Rod

 

A straight six !!
Love it, something a bit different !!

 

Great looking build

 

Nice job! I'm really diggin' the 6...

 

How much is that chopped?

 

its chopped 10" cramps the head room a bit but sometimes you gotta suffer for the cause

 

I really like the six, I almost went that way myself but scored an almost free Y block instead. What is the scoop thingy on the cowl where the gas cap would be? I like the way your truck sits....looks like a hoot to drive.

 

the scoop on the cowl is my A/C really pushes a ton of air through the cab on a hot day! thanks and it is a blast to drive even though ive not got to drive it but a few miles its been a blast hopin to be 100% roadworthy and painted in a couple of months

 

visor is finished

 

transmission tunnel turned out pretty good

slid a 32' shell on to see what i like better
