Features all AV8 picture thread

Here is a picture of one that I just started on.

 

Mock up

 

Forddraggin, that coupe is awesome! I'm gathering fenders for mine in hopes that maybe, just maybe it might sit like yours! I love it!

 

here's my coupe waiting in CT for me...ready for the trip to the salt!!

 

30 Roadster AV8

 

Well the thread title does say All A v8 so your good. Just make sure to put a 3x2 set up and some finned valve covers on it before it leaves the shop and you can't go wrong.

 

Faultless! I love the painted alloy heads.

 

Fantastic mate......................just fantastic!

 

Thanks Uncle Bob, it was your Roadster that was the inspiration for it, A right hand drive version of it at least. Cheers

 

...my toy;-)))

 

This is the look. Most excellent!

Here is 29 I bought a couple of months ago, Elmitcheristo is hard at it getting it on the road.



The "Doss Roadster" is in the background

 

I agree, Chuck. Perfect stance, the right wheels ('40s up front) . . . just needs a few degrees on the windshield.

Nice enough that it deserves some glossy dark paint, like black, and a simple tan interior. But that's just MHO.

This isn't mine, and isn't the best shot, but hiding behind his '32 project is an AV8 Sedan which belongs to HAMBer T&AFlathead (Tim); I like what I see of it and wish I was in a position to buy it.

 

Thought that last one was a 32, till I scrolled across!

 

Subscribed and very impressed and interested!

av8 roadster, my daily driver.

I have just finished reading How to Build A traditional Ford Hot Rod..
by Mike Bishop and Vern tardel
Again !!!
It will be my build Bible.
I am starting to collect parts for a build of my own...
I just need to finish up a few other projects first...
Dang ,,,,I want one now !!!

 

congrats!! to the car AND that is your daily...

 

Just read all the way through this thread.. some unreal cars here!

Heres a few of my '28 Roadster, A frame, currently a 24 stud flatty but will be running a '37 21 stud with aluminium heads and an edelbrock super dual, '39 mercury trans and a '48 mercury rear end.





And one without the borrowed roof..

 

Here's a few pix of my mostly-completed `28. Lightly channeled, and traditionally inspired ... not period correct (there are a few later-model components) but mostly built with pre-WW II parts. This little car "could have" been built in 1941:

 

Here is my 1930.. 37 flathead, 37 mcculloch supercharger, 37 trans and front end, 40 rear, 40 hydraulic brakes.
I started out with steel wheels and then decided to switch to wires.
