Progress pics of my A & MrMidnites Coke machine

Finally got the flatty installed & fab'd up the trans mount. Next comes the 40 dash, steering column & headers. DAVE

 

Nice work I love the wires!

 

Whoa! Nice car, Buddy!

(Thanks for the phone advice on the tranny, too!)

Is the whole car gonne be Violet???

 

Great stance!!!!! That thing is going to be awesome when done. Nice job so far.

 

Sweet ...keep up the good work!

 

Shifts keep the pics coming......i love that car.

 

the stance is perfect.

 

Good job, that thing is going to be cooool man!

 

your car is shit and you should have it crushed....I'll come pick it up for you and take it away.

that car rules. I think a vanilla/cream color with a hint of voilet and those rims would be slick.

man I can't wait to finish college so I can afford and have time/space for something like that....although maybe I can run a little 110 mig in my dorm room.....then the only prob is fitting it out the door

 

Real nice looking car. Keep up the great work.

 

Sweet Dave! I'll cast a vote for the wires too! It's great when they're rolling eh? And the Coke machine rocks too! Regards, Dave.

 

Just right. Can't wait to see it on the street. Gonna use F-1 steering?

 

Hi,
Nice car , wires are under rated here , everyone wants '40 Ford steels.
Can you tell me how much you have chopped her please?

We have got to chop a car for a Customer , he doesnt know how much to take out , so reference pics will help.

If anyone else has chopped 30/31 Coupe pics and knows how much they removed , I'd appreciate that also...THANKYOU

 

Looking good, Dave.

Just a couple of observations-One. The distributor is on the wrong end and not nearly high evough(should be on the rear of manifold, just to the right of center)
Two, The valve covers are missing>

 

Cool car, nice look. I'm jealous.
One observation, though.
It looks like the rear track is too wide for the body.
Most have the rear tires tucked a little closer to the body.
Or is it an optical illusion?

Sweet.

 

The car looks better in person..., Thanks Dave...!

 

Lookin' good, Dave.

Just to answer a few questions: Its chopped 4" & channeled the width of frame. Zd 4" front & rear.Yes, the rear track is a little wide cause I'm running a 10 bolt GM rear w/ wheel adapters for now.I had to use somethin GM on this car to keep one JimC happy.I'm in the process of cutting a 40 dash to fit.Also, it has Vega steering. More pics after Iola. Thanks for your comments, that means a lot to me.DAVE

 

That looks great. It's coming along well. I'll be at Iola too. See you up there for sure.

[/ QUOTE ] WIDTH of the frame??? Any channel would have to be the width of the frame unless you have dropped the floor between the siderails. Do you mean it is channeled the heighth of the frame?

Damn, that looks really good.

....... Cuz I wouldn't kill for a five window already....

Great pics!
What's the interior gonna look like?
What grill shell is gonna get run?

 

Gonna build a custom short radiator or drop one down in front of the crossmember? It's looking great so far, I like the stance and the wire wheels are perfect. Keep the pictures coming.
