after some thinking and weighing my options, i went for the '29 model A i came across. here she is in her current glory, keep watching for updates soon. gonna look nice on my '28 buick frame with that dual quad olds up front, followed by the caddy flathead when that's built i've got replacement panels for all the rough spots other than the front half of the roof and visor that's missing. if anybody's got those, lemme know. i might have a lead but i need to get it soon since i hope to have this on the road in the next couple months
Thats EXACTLY what mine looks like right now! I kid you not. I'll be driving it someday...............
the top steel header cover is $145 at snyders, #A-174-DS the wood part that goes behind that is AWD-1025-1 and is 71 bucks. the individual roof ribs are 10 bucks each you need 7. or the entire roof wood is $350 i think. they have the visor too. Do you have the steel for the back end below the window to the bottom of the car body? if so where did you get it or did you make it?
That's about what the body on mine looked like when I started on it. You are pretty motivated to have it on the road in 2 months. Ill look foward to updates
still have it, looking for a new home. realized through the mockup that it wouldn't work with the feel i envision for this project. looked too rat rod/bobber pickup and i don't want that. i'm building a damn hot rod
looks better than the one i just picked up. that rear cab wall looks newish any ideas where it came from or is it oem?
it's oem. look closely at the bottom, it's rusted through. it comes with a new piece to replace it though. that, the missing roof and the rusted p***enger door top are the ONLY major rust on the whole thing
man, i just gotta say after pricing stuff out from snyder's...this thing is gonna be pretty cheap to do. MUCH less than i was expecting. i'm so fuggin excited about this thing! i blame all you guys on the hamb for this, just so you know
