    Finally got around to snapping some pics to add to this thread.

    Under construction is a '31 coupe. It has been apart since 1982. My original plan was to build a Pro-Street race type car with BIG tires under the stock rear fenders. no hinges smoothed for less drag. Since then with marriage,a kid, moving and such it sat in a barn feeling unloved.

    But since finding the HAMB I have seen the light:eek: and have changed directions and brought the old girl out of storage.

    Plans call for a 32 style ch***is hiboy. Might run a deuce shell or painted A time will tell. Here are pictures as it came out of storage and the beginnings of the frame.....

    Ive got a 1931 coupe, with an inserted Riley overhead set up, dual stromberg 81's, hooked to a 39 Ford ******. I am going backwards for the early fourbanger look. Will be finished and on the road this summer.:D

    Boones,
    I noticed your engine has the finned valve covers w/o breathers. I want to run the same kind. Will the breather in the oil fill tube suffice?
    Thanks, John

    PS looks Grrrrrreat.

    I'm doing an RPU for someone else. I made a frame from 4x2, it's getting an 8BA and Toyota 4 speed OD auto. They dropped off a box, cowl, doors, valances and boards. I make the rest. Should be fun.
