    I like it! 30-31 coupes just look so TOUGH!!!:cool:

    What type of hydraulic clutch set-up are you using? A hydraulic throwout bearing, or a hydraulic-activated cylinder type with an actuator rod to work the fork?

    Clutch is hydraulic cylinder on the passenger side; GM truck iirc. Had a heck of a time finding a slave cylinder the same bore as the Kugel (Girling) master. Finally found a Girling slave on a sports car website. Clutch is all at the top of the pedal travel, which I like. Paint will be Black Cherry when I find the $$$. Thanks for the comments; the builder is really talented.
