^ ^ ^ That's perfect right there

 

I’ve owned this 28 coupe for 45 years, bought her for $150 when I was 15 years old......gotta to be the oldest project ever.

 

the @The37Kid has you beat......

 

Just went through this whole thread.....really like this sedan. Looks like it has a Rolling Bones style front spring behind the axle set up. I'm sure it was built before the RB's popularized that way of front end lowering though. Sure would like to see some chassis pic's.....including the rear suspension too.

 

This car is outrageous!

 

Through the years;

 

Yes, Found my '30 Roadster body in 1962 on the way home from church one Sunday. It was free for cleaning out the garage. That was the start of the project and my life as a flea market vendor, I was 12 year old at the time. Bob
