New A roadster in progress

My friend Jeff has a model A roadster in the works. Today he brought up a load of parts and the mock-up begins. Started off with some American stamping brand rails and we finnished welding the boxing plates in today. Slapped a front end under it and now we need some rear susspention parts. Just tacked the rearend in for now. After we made a roller out of it we set Red Meats Tall T body on for kicks and to make some room to put it inside for the night. I think the T looks kind of good on the 32 rails, but it will really go on A rails (soon I hope). Here's a few pics of todays work. Tomarrow we will get the roadster body up here and mock that up on the deuce rails (pics of that tomarrow).

 

good looking project

Thanks fellas, alot of work yet to be done. Jeffery wants to have his roadster done in 2 months wish him luck. I should get him to sign up here, damned lurker!

 

Sundays progress, Red Meats T is now a roller. 2 rollers in 2 days, thrashin. Rolled out my coupe and took some more pics.....

 

DAMN K-MEMBER Your Fuckin Amazing ALL that frame work in ONE day!!!!
Im Impressed ----------FEDER

 

You should have seen him in action FEDER...I would go make a parts run and he would have fabricated some new bracket or mount in they time it took me to roll down to the local NAPA...

I have to tell you guys....if it weren't for Kmember I would never be able to get this car even close to this..he is The Man!

 

Why can't my driveway look like that? There's enough there to keep my busy/happy for 10 years!

 

Nice work, guys.

Mocking stuff up is about as fun as you can have with you pants on !

 

Chop that coupe man, it's hurtin' my eyes. Looks like you got alot of sweet projects around there. Nice pics too.

 

Looking mighty fine.

 

Thanks to you Fed, boxing the frame to start with, I just finish welded Jefferys, but Meats was bare as it get today.
"Mocking stuff up is about as fun as you can have with you pants on !"
Ain't that the truth Rolf.
"Chop that coupe man, it's hurtin' my eyes. Looks like you got alot of sweet projects around there. Nice pics too.".....Maybe next year Norrie, I'm gonna drive a high boy the first year...then...
Look for more progress next weekend.
In the mean time, here are the motor mounts I made with Jeffery for Red Meats T..
1 make a little plate to bolt to mount.
2 make template.
3 cut out patterns
4 tack in place
5 weld
6 motor mounts done!
easy as 1,2,6!

 

If wasn't Sunday night and I need to go to bed I'd have said more......

 

Hmmm, maybe that's a good thing, because I know your ornery.

 

Cool. Looks like alot of fun your having there

 

Rolf...I am sick and my head is pounding....but I still have a HUGE grin on my face.....to think just 2 weeks ago I was Dead Set on selling that pile of parts...now just yesterday I was rolling it around the yard for pictures!

 

Thats my boy!!!!

 

Yeah...you Bailey's...you sure can build cars!

 

Another busy weekend working on Jefferys roadster, made trany mount and motor mounts (that I will do a tech post on maybe tomarow). Looks like he finally did an intro....sorry no pics today, but there will be soon.

 

Keith, that's cool, looking forward some new photos! --Mika

 

Very cool, guys! Keep on keepin on!

 

Keith awesome progress. How is the truck coming? Are you going to have it ready for this summer? Sorry I haven't made it back up to the shop with buying the new place I have been running crazy with no spare change in the pocket.
