My name is Noel and I'm new to the message board. I have seen some helpful threads on google while investigating how to build a traditional style Model A roadster. I have done a 53 Ford Customline in the past and was in the process of building a 28 Model A closed cab pick up before a divorce forced me to sell it. The new project is a 1930 Mode A roadster. I'm just looking for guidance in options for the build. Thanks!!
Welcome you have found the right place. But we need pictures lots of pictures. And some more details about your build.
I will try to post some pictures this weekend. I aquired the car from a family freind that had it in a garage in Northern CA since 1970. It is fairly complete, but my plan is to do it with out fenders, possibly channeled with a suicide front end ( cheaper to keep and re use the stock spring/axle). I have 40 spindles/hubs for the front and a 53 Mercury Flathead that I will be using. My plan is to use a T-5 but I am still looking for an 8" rearend or something with the right width. Still waiting on a ***le, but hopefully will have it in the next 30 days, I have been hesitant to spend any money until I have it in hand.
